Le Bouillon. In the 19th century in Paris, a revolution occured. That was when the first chain of restaurants that cooked cheap cuts with broth in a variety of ways, appeared. Quality menus and affordable prices quickly put these restaurants on the map. And now, history continues : le Bouillon is born. In the 18th district of Paris, quality meets quantity, both on your plate and in your wine glass. This two-storey restaurant can accomodate up to 300 patrons. Bouillon Pigalle reintroduces us to Paris’ popular culinary tradition, which inspires both locals and tourists alike. Its home-made dishes are cooked with the freshest produce. A bevy of Paris’ timeless specialties. Breathtaking.

Great French cuisine at reasonable rates

We went there at about 1815 hrs. The place was pretty crowded at that time and there was a waiting time. It seats about 300 as we learnt. We waited for a short while and then were ushered to our table. We chose to have...More

Cheap and you get what you pay for!

We’ve been Paris for two weeks and this is our only disappointment, beef bourguignon was fat and gristle. Crap! The veal stew was tough and dry and the sauce reminiscent of Campbell cream of chicken soup. Too many wonderful places to eat to waste time...More

Got a big reccommendation from our French friend

Prepare for long, long lines, especially around 20:00. We were there at 19:00, and waited for only 5 minutes. I must say that for me, as a vegetarian, the options were very limited. I had onion soup for starter, and for main - my only...More

A good meal in a bustling bistro setting.

We stopped here after a long day at Versailles. It was relatively early by Paris standards, around 5 I think, it was already quite busy. We had about 10 parties ahead of us. The host was loud, enthusiastic, and quite fun. He kept the line...More

Bouillon Pigalle

When I wrote about Bouillon Chartier in 2011 (see 9th Arr.), I said: “You’ll probably want to see this restaurant, but maybe not eat there”. Now, the historic bouillon model is being revived; cavernous, non-stop service, no reservations, very low prices, but in restaurants you...More

This question is for Bouillon Pigalle staff. I visited a few months ago and waited on line for at least 45 minutes. It is definitely a very popular place and worth the visit. I was under the impression that one could not make reservations. Can you please clarify this, because I go to Paris every year and would certainly like to return to your restaurant. Merci!

This is a question for staff at Bouillon Pigalle. I went a few months ago and saw long lines to get in. We waited over 45 minutes. It was worth it though. But, I understood that you can't get reservations and now see through these messages that you can. Can you please confirm that one can make reservations. I go to Paris every year and would like to go back. Merci!
