Our 10 Favorite Addresses on Rue Charlot

Le Marais is one of those neighborhoods where we love to wander and secretly dream of living, thanks to its adorable parks, endless shops and charming little streets. The star of the area ? The famous Rue Charlot, frequented by all the cool kids of the capital (and even from around the world). We headed back there for a stroll to bring you the very best addresses: from trendy coffee shops and vintage boutiques filled with rare archive pieces to hidden galleries, Pilates studios, and countless spots for sandwiches, wine and pasta. So… when are we moving in?

After beauty comes indulgence ! After 15 years of loyal service, the Parisian jewelry workshop Monsieur Paris at 53 rue Charlot has moved to 1 rue Pérée, making room for its new resident : Monsieur Paris la Cave. Founded by Nadia Azoug – also founder of the jewelry brand – alongside Riccardo and Noé, this delicious counter celebrates sharing and craftsmanship. The atmosphere is warm and elegant with exposed stone walls, a stunning green counter and a glass façade that will open wide onto Rue Charlot once spring arrives. At lunchtime, enjoy a hint of Asia with delicious Bentos (€18) created by Kaori Endo, featuring perfectly textured rice. The Futomakis (€8), an elongated version of maki, are a must-try and come with tuna or avocado. In the evening, the mood and destination change: welcome to Italy with dishes by Michele Farnesi, including pasta and natural wines. Everything we love!

Monsieur Paris la Cave, 53 rue Charlot, Paris 3e. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 12pm to 3pm and 5pm to midnight, and Monday from 5pm to 10pm.

Looking for a stylish find at a reasonable price? Head to 29 rue Charlot Vintage Shop, a true treasure cave for vintage lovers and experienced thrifters.Behind its large glass window lies an ultra-sharp selection of carefully curated clothing and accessories, offering a journey through several decades of fashion. From denim or leather jackets to retro sunglasses, stunning jewelry and gorgeous vintage designer shoes, every piece tells a story. Beyond the gems hanging on the racks, it’s impossible not to mention the decor – pieces we’d love to take home as well – including the magnificent yellow leather sofa proudly sitting in the middle of the shop, both vintage and incredibly stylish. The clientele ? The entire fashion crowd of the neighborhood. You might spot model and influencer Léa Julian or fashion influencer Pauline Leroy. In other words, if you’re searching for THE vintage piece that will make all the difference, this is the perfect address.

29 rue Charlot Vintage Shop, 29 rue Charlot, Paris 3e. Open daily from 11am to 7:30pm.

How could you walk along Rue Charlot without stopping at Cortado, aka the café approved by Rosalía ? This Spanish-inspired coffee shop, set in a minimalist and refined space enhanced with red and white decorative details, recalls the vibrant atmosphere of Andalusian ferias. Here you’ll find the classics we all love : matcha latte (€5.50), cappuccino (€5.50), chai latte (€6) and of course the cortado – all perfectly executed. Feeling hungry ? Go for their delicious cositas : the indulgent pan con tomate (€5), their savory croissant, a cheese or Iberian ham sandwich, and many other sun-kissed bites. To end on a sweet note, treat yourself to their pastries, including delicious dark chocolate sea salt cookies or cinnamon cookies (€4.50). The little extra ? For the full Spanish experience, simply walk a few steps to the Cantina to enjoy tortilla, pimientos and other Spanish specialties.

Cortado Café, 31 rue Charlot, Paris 3e, Open Monday and Tuesday from 8:30am to 7pm, Wednesday to Friday from 8:30am to 9:30pm, Saturday from 9:30am to 9:30pm and Sunday from 9:30am to 7pm.

This is the cozy and responsible gem we’ve been dreaming of: Linnea Lund creates semi-custom knitwear with the same quality as major designer houses. No surprise here: Charlotte Björklund, obsessed with traceability, produces her knitwear on demand with an Italian spinner (who supplies luxury houses) using Mongolian goat wool purchased through fair trade, before being knitted in a workshop just 15 km away. The result ? Beautiful knitwear with a very respectable carbon footprint. Our favorites ? Classic monochrome pieces with Chanel-worthy cuts: beanie (€105), balaclava (€265), sleeveless sweater, hoodie, turtleneck, poncho, cropped cardigan and many iconic colors. Not to mention a fantastic collaboration still available with Inès de la Fressange. But the brand’s specialty is couture color: the spinner sends the boutique available yarn stocks including the season’s colors ordered by major fashion houses. You choose the cut and the color, and the piece is produced made-to-measure at the same price. Chic!

Linnea Lund, 27 rue Charlot, Paris 3e. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 2pm and 3pm to 7pm. Entire collection available online.

Little Red Door has reopened its famous red door after a full makeover. The two new managers, also co-founders of The Cambridge Public House, have reinvented the former New York-style speakeasy cocktail bar with a cozy and comforting touch. The mood ? A guaranteed plunge into the warm atmosphere of the 70s. Between cozy bar armchairs, soft lighting, comforting textures and the intimate mezzanine with leopard-print carpet, it feels like a cocoon. And wait until you see what’s happening in the glasses. The menu features 11 cocktails, each priced at €18 and inspired by an agricultural practice, using ingredients made exclusively from French products. Favorites include the indulgent Permaculture, blending chestnut, butter, umeshu wakaze (a Japanese plum liqueur) and Avallen calvados, or the Solaire, made with black tea, green walnut and milk, Cointreau and cognac. The more adventurous will love the surprising Carbone, with beetroot, black garlic, smoked gin and unaged Dartigalongue.

The little extra ? Every month, two seasonal cocktails are created to match the mood of the moment. And for small bites, enjoy olives (€6), a charcuterie board (€13) or a cheese plate (€12) to share.

Little Red Door, 60 rue Charlot, Paris 3e.  Open daily from 5pm to 2am.

We may have discovered the new trendy place to dine in the Marais. Arcane 17 – named after the star of the 17th card in the Marseille tarot – is the first project by the trio Pablo Escriva, Patrick and Ivann Laur, joined by Jules Flottes as restaurant director. Halfway between the warm spirit of the South and the energy of Paris, the restaurant blends Catalan and Basque influences in a Parisian bistro setting that already attracts the neighborhood’s fashion crowd. From the plates to the decor, everything radiates sunshine. In the kitchen, chef Sophie Léger creates dishes inspired by Catalan and Basque flavors, driven not by trends but by a love of taste and conviviality. The products are simple and beautifully enhanced: charcoal-grilled catch of the day (€13 per 100g), sharing plates like tomato tartare (€12), or Pintxos with poutargue or Cantabrian anchovies (€5 each). Desserts are simple yet incredibly indulgent, including crème catalane (€9) or chocolate cream on toast with olive oil (€10). And because perfection lies in the details, the wine list features coastal regions, alongside cocktails ranging from classics to house creations.

Arcane 17, 17 rue Charlot, Paris 3e.  Open Tuesday to Friday from 12pm to 3pm and 7pm to 10:30pm, Friday and Saturday until 11pm. Sunday open continuously from 12pm to 4pm.

At the corner of rue de Poitou and rue Charlot, Carboni’s offers a little taste of Italy without leaving Paris. Behind its cream-colored façade, white tablecloths, wooden furniture and imperfect walls create an atmosphere that is both raw and deeply elegant. This philosophy also appears on the plate, with comforting Italian classics that are simple yet beautifully executed. Green olives from Puglia (€6) and sourdough focaccia with ricotta di buffala (€13) mark the beginning of the journey. Then come the stars of the menu: the famous pici cacio e pepe with soy-marinated egg (€29), which you’ve probably already seen on Instagram and which are just as delicious as they are photogenic. For dessert, there’s only one option: the iconic Italian tiramisù (€14). The highlight ? Heading downstairs to the Bar Sotto, a hidden speakeasy in a small vaulted cellar. Here, a vinyl jukebox lets you enjoy your cocktail with music in a vintage and intimate atmosphere.

Carboni’s, 45 rue de Poitou, Paris 3e. Open daily from noon to 2:30pm and from 7pm to 10:30pm. Bar Sotto open daily from 7pm to 2am.

When everything feels chaotic, nothing beats grabbing a gourmet hot dog at Rosette. Located between the Marché des Enfants Rouges and Rue Charlot, this beloved spot continues to delight crowds at lunchtime. Its secret? A crispy poultry sausage served in several addictive recipes: the Tribeca with confit and crispy onions, the Brooklyn with guacamole, the Bushwick with cheddar or the Bronx topped with truffle mayonnaise (€9.90). Or keep it simple with the classic Manhattan with ketchup and yellow mustard (€8.90). Also worth trying for a true New York vibe: the pastrami sandwich with mayonnaise and pickles (€15.90), available to take away or enjoy in the small dining room decorated entirely in red marble.
