Where to eat · Wine bar / cave à manger · €€ · 17e · Batignolles & Monceau
Poussin
Judith Cercós, a sommelière, and Ludovic Dubois run this small cave à manger on French-Iberian lines, the plates fine and the list leaning hard south. The bottles outnumber the seats, which tells you what the place is really about.
Evenings only, closed Sunday and Monday; angle for a stool at the counter.

Within a few minutes' walk
- Grand Hôtel ChicagoBoutique hotel€€ · 2 minA four-star on rue de Rome behind Gare Saint-Lazare, on the Batignolles edge — stylish rooms, a buffet breakfast, métro at the door. Soundproofing is the known weakness, so the courtyard side is the room to request.
- SalicorneMarket bistro€€ · 3 minCarol Pender cooked at Mokonuts before taking this narrow Batignolles room, where lunch is a handful of dishes weighted toward vegetables and shellfish and rewritten daily. The kitchen does more with a beetroot than most do with a rib of beef.
- BodrumTurkish / kebab€ · 6 minThe meat is veal breast, boned and cut and marinated in a spice blend the owners trace to a grandfather's kitchen in Turkey — no turkey filler, which is the usual giveaway. People will tell you it's the best kebab in Paris; it is at least very good.
- New Orient HôtelBoutique hotel€€ · 6 minCatherine and Josef Wehrle's antique-furnished rooms in a Haussmann building near Parc Monceau — balconies on some, a rare small lift, and the quiet north end of the 8th.
- Joli Môme BatignollesBoutique hotel€€ · 6 minOpened in late 2025 on rue des Batignolles and run as a household rather than a hotel: a communal breakfast table of local produce, a free homemade afternoon tea and an evening wine-and-cheese apéritif thrown in.
- Les Caves PopulairesWine bar€ · 9 minA blue-collar wine bar where a glass of the house red costs less than a métro ticket and a mixed charcuterie-and-cheese board runs €11. You can take an old wooden chair and play chess all afternoon under the big front window.
The district · 17e
Batignolles & Monceau — Village in the citySplit between formal Monceau in the south and the village-feel Batignolles in the north — a covered market, an organic open-air one, a big new park over the old rail yards, and a local restaurant scene.
Best for: Those wanting a residential, restaurant-rich base away from the crowds.
