A neighborhood café open from 7am in Alésia
Le Bouquet d'Alésia opens its doors from 7am on weekdays, making it one of the first places in the Alésia neighborhood to grab a real coffee in the morning. Short espresso, café crème, cappuccino, hot chocolate or Viennese coffee: the counter serves the regulars who stop by before work as well as those who settle on the terrace to read quietly. Thanks to continuous service, you can also drop in for a coffee in the afternoon, between errands on rue d'Alésia or after a film on avenue du Général Leclerc. It's a neighborhood café in the fullest sense: a place you walk into without booking, alone or with others, simply for a warm break a stone's throw from Alésia metro.
A French brasserie menu that follows the seasons
Our menu changes with the seasons. Generous starters, daily specials, grilled meats, fresh fish, composed salads and homemade desserts make up a rotating carte that never becomes predictable. The weekday lunch formula is a staple for local workers, good value, something you rarely find in touristy parts of Paris. In the evening, the vibe shifts toward sharing platters, a selection of wines and cocktails made at the counter. Before a movie on avenue du Général Leclerc or after a long workday, the menu at Le Bouquet adapts to the pace of the Alésia neighborhood.

It's the ideal spot for an after-work drink with colleagues from the nearby offices, a nightcap before or after a screening at the cinemas on avenue du Général Leclerc, or simply an aperitif on the terrace in fine weather. Open late every evening, the Bouquet bar stays lively well after the dinner service, in the unpretentious atmosphere of a Parisian brasserie near Alésia metro.
