Welcome to Polidor, a Parisian bistro since 1845

In the heart of the 6th arrondissement, on the peaceful Rue Monsieur-le-Prince, Polidor is much more than a restaurant: it is a living piece of Parisian history. Founded in 1845 as a dairy, this authentic establishment has stood the test of time without ever losing its soul.

Period wood paneling, checkered tablecloths, communal tables, mirrors marked by time... Here, nothing is set in stone, everything is faithful to the spirit of the bistros of yesteryear. People come here to enjoy traditional French cuisine, generous and unpretentious, but also to experience a unique, timeless atmosphere.

Over the decades, the Polidor has welcomed some of the greatest names in literature, the arts, and philosophy. Verlaine, Rimbaud, Gide, Joyce, Hemingway, Artaud, Kerouac... all found refuge, a table, and sometimes even inspiration here. The walls of the Polidor have heard a thousand passionate conversations and nourished generations of free and curious minds.

Today, the Polidor continues to welcome its guests with the same simplicity, the same taste for good things, and that little extra soul that makes all the difference.

Come in, take a seat, and let yourself be carried away by the timeless charm of the Polidor...
