Willi's Wine Bar and Restaurant In Paris

Willi's Wine Bar and Restaurant is located in a building that still has a typical 1930's frontage, yet inside is warm and cosy with a long, polished oak bar that greets you with an enticing selection of over 250 different wines.

Opened in the October of 1980 this unusual and revolutionary place has become very popular both with the Parisians and tourists alike, yet this is not just known as a wine bar, but also for the food they serve, as it is one of the more reasonable places to eat out in Paris.

Willi's Wine Bar and Restaurant In Paris

Many of the wines are available served by the glass with others by the bottle and there is a very varied selection, but with an emphasis on wine regions in France such as the Rhone wines and the Languedoc wines, but you can also have sherry as well.

There is a cosy dining room situated at the back of the wine bar with high beamed ceilings, where you can experience the fresh market based French cuisine that has hints of a Mediterranean influence, and the menu ends up changing on a daily basis.

This is also the place where you can see the Willi's Bottle Art Collection hanging on the walls, which has become a phenomenon and renowned all over the world.  Ever year, Willi's commissions a different artist to come up with a poster type image and each year connoisseurs wait in anticipation of the image depicting the new vintage.  Plus you can now collect the limited edition posters that illustrate the pleasures of wine.

Willi's Wine Bar and Restaurant is situated in the 1st Arrondissement near to The Louvre, which a one of the famous museums in Paris and is also very close to the financial district. 

Because this restaurant in Paris has become so popular, not just for the incredible selection of French wines, but for their quality of food, more and more people are getting to know about this place through personal recommendations and therefore reservations are suggested, but impromptu dining at the bar is encouraged which means you may well still be in with a chance of a reasonably priced meal in Paris to remember.

Some of the delights on offer may include wild duck with marmalade, Lyonnais sausage in truffled vinaigrette, guinea-fowl with confit of onions and bacon, a delicious chocolate terrine, etc but bear in mind that the cuisine is dependant upon what is available in the way of fresh produce for the time of year as well as what is in season.

Wine Bar and Restaurant Key Points

The restaurant is open Monday to Saturday from noon until 2.30pm and in the evening from 7pm through to 11pm.

The bar is open on a Monday to Saturday from noon through to midnight.

They have what is called a Menu Carte Soir for the evening, which is around 34€ and the Menu Carte Midi for lunch which is around 25€.  But there is also the menu known as Le Rapide Willi Soir of an evening for 32€ and the Midi for lunch at around 20€ which is either a starter and main course or a main course and dessert.

Reservations are suggested, but if you are dining with a group of more than six, then they suggest that you discover the our wonderful Mac?o restaurant & Bar, which is also owned and run by Willi's Wine Bar and is located next door at 15 Rue des Petits Champs.  There are a variety of different dining rooms and settings available that offers a dining experience for both small and larger groups at the Maceo, which can accommodate up to a hundred people at any one time in comfort & style.

We would also like to point out that they do NOT take American Express, only Visa and Mastercard and the staff speak English, which can really help with the wine selections, yet alone the food!
