    Really lovely place to find the gritty, artistic atmosphere that drew me to the city in the first place. And inexpensive too!

    I loved Little Red Door when I went with my friend Ava B. a couple years back, and I wanted to take…read moremy husband Matt B. when we were in Paris this month. We ended up going with Ava and her boyfriend Yassine, lining up after dinner, around 10:30 on a Friday night. There was a small crowd waiting outside, and it took us about a half hour to get in. The place was fun and busy, and as charming as I remembered. We got seated in a loungey upstairs area and received excellent table service. There was free popcorn and even a complimentary round of welcome drinks, a strong mini cocktail of Gentian and peated whiskey. The menu had changed over completely since my first visit. The cocktail offerings were printed onto thick printed leaves arranged on metal branches, forming a cool little tree centerpiece that replaced a paper menu (there was also a more detailed menu available online). Several of the cocktails were labeled with raindrops, indicating they were available as mocktails--helpful for Yassine, who doesn't drink alcohol. Matt and I shared two rounds, sampling a good chunk of this new menu. Everything was delicious. The Carbone was a bright, interesting cocktail made with beetroot, black garlic, Origin smoked gin, and Dartigalongue Un-Oaked, served with a cube of frozen yogurt that melted lushly into the beet-red drink. The Serre Solaire was smooth and boozy, with black tea, green walnut and milk, Cointreau, and Rémy Martin cognac. The Résilience was a highbrow tropical cocktail, with sorghum, pineapple sage, Pasquet cognac, and Savanna rum. The Permaculture was creative and flavorful, with chestnut, butter, wakame umeshu, and Avallen Calvados. I also tried a sip of Ava's Aquaponie, a light, juicy vodka drink with basil, lemon and sweet clover, St. Germain, and Grey Goose. I love Little Red Door and I'm glad I got to visit a second time and share it with my husband. We do live kind of far away, but I hope a third visit is in the cards.

The cocktails are very fun, and they even have a few beers here if that's your thing. The servers speak fluent English, and it is popular with foreigners, but it's not a tourist trap by any means.

    Though I had the address, I almost passed by this place entirely. It's a moody sort of bar, that is…read moreindeed like a commune: you slide a corrugated plastic door to the side to enter, and stumble upon a greenhouse with short tables and low lighting. The bar is straight ahead, in the building, and suddenly it becomes grungy-chic: it's all black with a long high table, stools, tall drippy candles, and loud pop music. When you're here, you must order the punch. It's 13 euros per person, which is steep given the serving sizes (you serve it yourself with a fancy gold-plated ladle, but the glasses they provide are small). They have three different flavors, and we chose the strong and spicy one. Deeeeee-lish. Not too sweet, refreshing with the giant ice cubes and tiny pink rosebuds, and you could barely taste the liquor, which is always dangerous. Steer clear of the food here, though. We needed something to absorb the alcohol and ordered the hot dog, which I figured would be as fancy as the drinks. Not so. It was a dressed up Knacki, stuffed in a bun with mustard and dried onion chips. Not only did it have an unpleasant aftertaste; in the moment it was plasticky and industrial. I regretted the 7 euros spent on that. Bottom line: La Commune is fun for sexy punch night with friends if you're already up by Belleville, but I wouldn't traverse the Seine to get there. And I certainly wouldn't order their food.

I went over to a man working there near the DJ booth and asked if there was more live music on. He looked super angry and like a thug and shrugged and said 'i don't know' . Then I was wondering what to do as people had dispersed .. I saw a couple smoking a cigarette at the back of the bar. Me being from another country and not knowing French laws followed suit and lit a cigarette. It was such a dark and dingy bar that i wouldn't be surprised for patrons to smoke there. When my cigarette was almost finished the same angry thug looking man came up to me and grabbed my hand aggressively and squeezed it hard manhandling me until my wrist hurt and took the cigarette out of my hand and said 'get out! Get out! You are forbidden to ever be in this club again! You have broken French laws. I'm escorting you out!' I have never been treated like this in my life like I was a thief or a horrible person. I didn't know French laws were as such and it was an innocent mistake. I was manhandled and in the USA I could sue this bar for touching me in this way. I will investigate French laws and might file a claim. No one should aggressively manhandle a woman this way. Disgusting treatment of patrons. He could have kindly asked me to put the cigarette out and I would have complied. Never go this bar. Also expensive drinks
