Rooftops in Paris – This summer, rooftops are in vogue! All Parisians meet up with friends or family on the rooftops of Paris to enjoy cocktails and good food. These spots are the perfect place to relax while having an incredible view of the capital of love.
FIV Magazine has selected for you the 11 best rooftops in Paris to absolutely test this summer.
PERRUCHE PARIS
On the roof of the famous department store on Boulevard Haussmann, Le Printemps, a 500sq meter garden-style rooftop with elegant white chairs and pretty benches accompanied by yellow striped cushions. The menu is rich and of high quality with a taste for Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. We have spotted for you the pasta selection (25 to 28€), the risotto of the day (17€) as well as the choice of plates to share (14 to 22€). You will enjoy the breathtaking view of the golden dome of the Printemps and the rooftops of the Paris Opera.

CREATURES, Julien Sebbag
Still on Boulevard Haussmann, on the roof of the other department store, Les Galeries Lafayette, a lush terrace on the most beautiful rooftops in Paris. In a retro atmosphere, yellow and orange notes dominate like a Californian sunset, pretty objects, books and vinyls accumulate like in a cabinet of curiosity. Julien Sebbag, chef-sensation of the moment in Paris, passionate about Israeli cuisine, offers Mediterranean and vegetarian food. We have selected for you strawberries with mozzarella di Buffala (19€), Focaccia of courgettes and black olives (15€) and for dessert a salted butter Crumble with lime mascarpone.

PERCHOIR MARAIS
And three! Here’s another rooftop on the roof of a department store: the favorite of Parisians, the BHV MARAIS. The Perchoir Marais offers a panoramic view of the Eiffel Tower, the Seine and the Paris City Hall.
This establishment offers a “Bistrot Marseillais” decor with an OM pennant, card games and petanque balls. You will live a summer moment in the heart of the Provencal atmosphere and the festive spirit of Marseille, the city honoured by the BHV MARAIS this season. The Terrace Menu is composed of varied and quality aperitif plates with charcuterie from the Bydehesa house and Tristan Seguin cheeses. The cocktail menu is very attractive unless you prefer a “petit jaune” to match with the Marseille atmosphere!
Monday to Saturday from 8.15 pm to 1.30 am and Sunday from 7.15 pm to 1.30 am – Reservation from 8 persons onwards.
PERCHOIR MENILMONTANT
Located on the 7th floor of an industrial building, the rooftop of Le Perchoir consists of a large bar and a snack hut. You will enjoy a view of the Sacré-Coeur and the roofs of Ménilmontant. An original decoration with aromatic plants, tomato plants and vines around a pergola with drapes, cosy benches and soft cushions. The terrace menu is oriented towards aperitif plates, finger food and “pizzettes” from Tuesday to Saturday (12€).

PERCHOIR GARE DE L’EST
It is on the floors of the Gare de l’Est, under the Eiffel rose window, that you will find a large terrace usually inaccessible in an industrial and romantic setting. The terrace dotted with flowered arches is home to a large bar and snack bar where you can dance to a fine selection of music. Le Perchoir de l’Est is an ephemeral bar open from June to October. Same principle as in Ménilmontant, the bar’s menu offers “pizzettes” (12€) and plates of tapenade, tarama, houmous …, the favorite dishes of Parisians!
