I have been there twice and i like the idea of picking out a bottle of the wine from the store next store. Food is fine, nothing extraordinary, but sitting outside on a nice day watching the world go by is priceless. read more

During a solo trip to Paris I was lucky enough to stumble on Le Barav, which was absolutely perfect for a few glasses of wine and charcuterie outside on their patio. Very welcoming and accommodating, and well worth the price. read more

The location is charming, the food is casual and delicious, and the wine is from the store next door. We made it by around 630pm and were able to snag a table but we had to move by 730 because that was what time the reservation on that particular table was scheduled. No worries as the table next to us opened up. I found the service to be fairly quick if you know how to signal to the bartender. We were unable to sit outside and I do recommend making a reservation ahead of time. Also, this place is really affordable. I spent 4 euros for my Bordeaux and 6 euros for the prosecco. I found there to be a very diverse age range of the patrons here. It was my favorite 'bar' in Paris. read more

Nice wine restaurant hidden behind place de la Republique. The restaurant is originally laid out and has a terrasse outside. For those who are shy and do not want to sit down with unknown people, it can be the case here. We were 2 with my brothers and we placed at a table for 4 with a couple coming from the UK. What is nice on this bar is the possible to try different wine at the glass, you can also order a bottle in the wine store and take it away if you do not finish it. You have also the mystery wine and if you discover it, you can have a glass, half a bottle or a bottle offered. Nice tapas also. Even though I do not like cheese, we had a planche with cheese and charcuterie. My brother really enjoyed the cheese. In total 48€ for 2 with a bottle of wine and 3 different "tapas" (they are large). read more

What a fun spot. We came here on our first night in the city. We bought a nice bottle of Bordeaux from the wine shop next store and enjoyed it with the cheese plate and the charcuterie. Delish! Service was very friendly and attentive even though they were slammed. Come here with a date or a small group read more

This is for the wine store next to the bar - great wines at reasonable prices with a very helpful staff. The woman did not force us to speak english - she tried to help us speak our french until we asked to speak english and then she switched for us (not in a rude way, more like she didn't want us to feel forced to speak english until WE wanted to). She also picked out some great, affordable wines. We will return!! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! We walked here from our hotel about 5 minutes away on our first night in Paris. Neither of us speaks French, but I did train myself on certain phrases to try to communicate. Fortunately, the service was so great and our waitress had no problem communicating in English (she probably didn't want to hear me butcher the beauty that is the French language. Can't blame her). We first went next door for a bottle of wine. You can bring your own wine here, and they just charge a 5 euro corking fee. Absolutely worth it! We got a bottle of white and red, and our waitress (whose name I regret forgetting) chilled the bottle of white for us while we drank the red. We ordered a mixte plate with charcuterie and fromage, and then we got a big green salad to split. LOVED both. The ambience is fantastic. We sat outside and just took it all in. The people sitting at the table next to us were French, and they started talking to us soon after realizing we were Americans. They were so friendly, we had a great time chatting with them! We also got some great recommendations from them. We loved it here so much, that we came back a week later. The waitress remembered us, and we sat at the same table and ordered the exact same food. It was just as great the second time around. If you're in the area, and especially if you're lucky enough to be staying in Marais, I definitely recommend this place. read more

See all

The wine selection and atmosphere are the reason to be here. The Friday night scene is absolutely popping, and the next door wine store definitely offers a good range of wines for drinking. The highlight of the dinner was the mixed charcuterie and cheese plate, with a fantastic combination of meats and cheeses. Honestly, given the chance, I'd order a whole plate for myself for dinner. The food was fine, but underwhelming. My two friends bother ordered the beef Tartare, which they claimed wasn't particularly good, and the lack of table mustard didn't help. The sides were a bit too salty (mashed potatoes and a salad with a concrete reduction. I ordered the gnocchi with the dried beef. The flavor was good, but the gnocchi was far too dry, and I needed to drink copious amounts of water to maintain an appetite. By no means an unpleasant dinner, but stick to wine, cheese and charcuterie for an optimal experience. read more

Love this place in Le Marais Nord. Packed on a Saturday evening with an effortlessly (it appeared that way, at least) fashionable group of 30-somethings, Le Barav is a wine bar with personality. First, my friend and I bought a bottle of red at the (same owner) friendly wine shop next door and then brought it to the bar where it was corked by an even more friendly bartender. The bread was great, the crowd was friendly (sensing a theme?), and since one of the guys at the bar seemed to like my friend we almost didn't move to the table when his name came up on the list. I would have stayed at the bar but more on that later. But we did move, to a cramped little wooden table next to a group of chatty single women (chatty amongst themselves, not to us, and plus my French isn't all that great either way). We ordered the charcuterie plate, which was terrific. Perfectly portioned with four types of meat and with more of that great bread. We finished the bottle and had places to be, so we left. On the way out, we saw the friendly guy from the bar, now seated outside with his friends. He said hi and asked us to sit. It was our last night in Paris, so we stopped for a minute before moving on to the next spot, with my timid friend wondering "what if?" read more

Lovely little restaurant off the beaten path in a residential neighborhood. The staff were incredibly kind and food was good. If you go, I highly recommend grabbing a bottle from the wine store beside it (they will provide great recommendations for you!) and bringing it to the outdoor seating (corking fee of course). Would love to visit again if we had more time! read more

Walked hear from our hotel and I was so good. Got a pasta, a panini, and a meat/cheese plate along with 2 glasses of refreshing rosé.

I would do anything to be able to go back to this place. Unfortunately, I'm back in the states and it will have to wait. We ordered the meat and cheese mix plate first and it was heavenly. I love the meats in France! I also ordered the truffle pasta and the lentil sausage dishes. PERFECT! I highly recommend this place, although it get very crowded and seating is difficult after 8pm. read more

My wife and I absolutely loved this. Don't compare it to anything in the States because it's far different and it's different in the best of ways. Go all in for wine and multiple courses, you'll be happy you did! read more

Le Barav - Wine Bars Near Me - Paris, 75

Le barav was bookmarked for my recent days in Paris it was recommended by a few people so i felt like it was worth a walk. After short walk from my apartment i found myself tucked away what could possibly be my favorite wine bar in the city. You will definitely need reservations for a table if you come on a friday. We arrived and were seated at the bar. You have the option to buy a bottle from the wine shop and pay a 5 euro corkage fee or order by the glass. we chose the glass option and we not disappointed . 5 options in red and white i chose to start with a Boudreaux. I mean you cant go wrong with a Boudreaux . I also tried a Rouge Sancerre which i have never had. For food we ordered antipasti plate which came with roasted /grilled eggplant, tomatoes, peppers and zucchini, it would be sac-reglious to eat in France and not have cheese so we also opted for cheese and meat plate. It was more than enough food for the two of us. 3 glasses of wine later i was not wanting my meal to end. Ive decided that in Philly my favorite wine bar will remain Tria but here in Paris its without a doubt Le Barav. read more

Why do I like this place so much? Maybe its the fact that you can buy your bottle of wine next door and they'll open it and serve it to you for a measly 5 euro. Maybe its the friendly service. Maybe its the outdoor terrace. I don't know but it got under my skin and I can't wait to go back for the cheese plate read more

I liked this place quite a bit. It's a restaurant with a wine store attached. Get a table, go into the wine store and pick out a bottle. The prices are clearly marked and they'll charge a 6eur corkage fee to drink it there. The bottles range from about 9 Euros up to the very high end. There's ample street seating (make a reservation) and some inside tables which you may be able to snag on a walk in. From my memory the food menus is limited but the mixed plate was very good to have with a bottle of wine. read more

The location is charming, the food is casual and delicious, and the wine is from the store next door. The service is slow, which is fine because you are in Paris and are too busy eating, drinking, and looking at the beautiful architecture of the area to notice. If you go in the summer, you can sit outside (highly recommend) if you make a reservation ahead of time. Also, this place is really affordable and despite a hipster reputation, is appropriate for a diverse age range. read more

The best duck confit I ever ate. Small place, and small menu. But lots of beautiful people and buying your wine at the adjacent shop is a wonderful added experience. Best in nice weather so you can sit outdoors. read more

You cannot get any more local than this. We stuck out so bad we felt like we needed to run into a vintage clothing shop and hide under some bobo wear. You have to make reservations, since there are only a couple of tables and this place fills up fast. In any case, food was casual but oh so delicious. My salmon salad was incredibly generous with the salmon, with an interesting but tasty addition of raisins, which would have left you full if not for the other various things we ordered off the menu. The tartine we ordered had ham and tomatoes, which was delicious, the melted goat cheese blended perfectly with the strong flavor of the ham. My favorite dish though was the St Marcellin roti au Miel, slightly melted cheese with honey... oh my gosh this is good! It was devoured. We also ordered some glasses of wine as recommended by the waiter which paired quite well. Le barav is a casual bar with great food in a bobo environment. Definitely order that St Marcellin roti au Miel! Wish we could take it back with us. Le Barav is exactly what we were looking for as part of the Parisienne experience. read more

Wonderful little place. Enjoyed the wine, the food, and practicing our French with the patient waiters. Between two of us we had 4 glasses of wine and three small plates for around 40€. Everything was delicious, and we felt it was plenty of food. read more

The food is ridiculous. But the service left a little bit to be desired. I highly recommend making reservations and bring along an extra set of PATIENCE. Unfortunately, that night was not my night for being patient, so I did not enjoy the experience as much as I would have liked. However, I did heat up my ravioli the next morning and it. was. phenomenal. You'd think ravioli couldn't be that good but it was! It was buttery and filled with just a kiss of cheese - the sauce added to the flavor, but did not overpower the dish. This is one place I'd love to return to if we ever go back to Paris! read more

Just arrived in Paris yesterday and we were looking for a place to have a glass of wine and watch the endlessly fascinating parade of folks in the Marais. There was nothing on the wine by the glass list that intrigued me but the wine store next door seems to be under common ownership. We selected a bottle with the help of the salesperson who then delivered and opened it at our table. Great selection, great service, and a lovely way to spend an afternoon in Paris. read more

Our friend who moved to Paris a few months ago took us to this spot for dinner. We decided to meet up around 8 and the wait wasn't too bad for a table. We ordered a bunch of stuff: charcuterie, duck rillettes, steak tartare, foie gras, and fried gnocchi with pesto. Everything was delicious, except the gnocchi was just alright. The duck rillettes was good, but it was not super flavorful. The foie gras was great, and of course, the charcuterie had a good selection of meats and cheeses. We also got a bottle of wine between the 3 of us. What's great is that you can buy a bottle of wine from the shop next door, and pay a few euros for what we'd call a corkage fee. Not bad at all. If you're looking for some French-style tapas, this is a great place. read more

Great wine place. You can get different planchettes to eat typical finger food with your wine or you can even get some real dishes. Really great ambiance even during the week. Choose your bottle bring it to the bar and they open it for you. Or you can try a glass of the wine selections of the day. Had a St Emilion. Awesome! read more

I usually for some odd reason don't write reviews outside my home base of London, but I can't help but thank my fellow Yelpers of Paris for sending me to Le Barav. It was a highlight of my visit to Paris. The place was HOPPING on a Tuesday eve. Luckily I was a solo diner so they were able to accommodate me but I recommend booking well in advance. The two guys that were at the bar (maybe the owners?) were nothing short of the warmest and most attentive hosts with great smiles and passion for service. I loved them. They take their boutique wines very seriously and I had the four red wines that they were serving that night by the glass well-explained to me in English. I had a raw courgette plate which was nothing special for 10 Euros although the sun-dried tomatoes on it were extraordinary. The creme brule was nothing to write home about and the top was a bit burnt. This place gets 10 stars for service and atmosphere. I'd be here every week if I lived in Paris. Le Barav, je t'aime! read more

Such a delightful spot. Don't plan to go before dinner elsewhere because you might never make it there. Fabulous wine selection, great charcuterie, reasonably priced salads and tartines to match. Very accommodating staff plus great people watching make it a convivial place to chill out after work on a spring or summer evening. read more

As we walked through the streets of the Marais area we came across this happening joint - largely frequented by locals you can sit street side or inside...we choose inside as so many people smoke in Paris, and particularly at the tables outside! If the wine list is not to your pleasure start the experience be it lunch, dinner or when ever, by going next door to the bottle shop and for five Euros corkage you can enjoy to your desire. The menu is simple however the food is great. We started on both occasions with the delightful salads, and the tomato and mozzarella was good and so too the 'salade do moment'...fresh, delightful dressing and a great size to share. We on the second occasion enjoyed the 'rillette de canard' - the texture and taste were terrific. Following on the sharing theme and we had the cheese and meat platter....a beautiful array of both! We loved the feel and vibe here...lots of people, all tucked in around tables, other standing at the bar, some crammed in street side, a happy place where there is great energy in the servers and their positive attitude....we enjoyed over two hours on both visits....and had moments of feeling we were temporary Parisians! read more

true marais ambiance. bring a friend and feast on delicious cheeses, meats, and wines. obsessed. read more

Great cozy place for great wine and food. Can get abit busy, but the service was incredible. You must go. Especially if you are not from here. It's where the locals go and gives you a warm fun feel of how great Paris is. read more

Great foi gras maison! Nice spot, nice crowd

We find wonderful places thanks to others and some rare examples we want to shout them out but also want to keep them close. Well this is that sort of place. Regardless of what language you speak, the team here is amazing. And if you show up too often as I have in the last 5 days, they will challenge you to try many new things! Let them suggest and be be surprised! Yes it is a fact that I've been here 5 times in 4 days. I will always come back! read more

Lovely Parisien experience - great wine and cheese. I broke my gluten and dairy free diet for this place and was not disappointed.

Yelp did not steer me wrong. Ravioli with chorizo + honey goat cheese + Bordeaux = my personal heaven.

AMAZING!!!! Great staff, atmosphere and wine/food. Highly recommended. Really cool - thanks so much

Loved it. Great wine, friendly folks, good bites. Berlioz, Ricaud etc...

Took a metro out to Republique with my family (wife and 3 teenage daughters) after checking Yelp for somewhere in the Marais. After a bit of a hike around the square (due to confusing directions from Google maps) we found La Barav and had a wonderful meal. It's generally small plates (what we'd call Tapas) and we were able to select a bottle of wine from their shop next door. The wait staff were very friendly and accommodating and the food was excellent. read more

Fun, modern bar/restaurant with good food. The cheese and charcuterie plate had good variety and it satisfied my craving that I've had since I got to Paris! We also had the crostini du jour with was with basil and chèvre. We got a bottle of wine from next door - the guy there was helpful with recommendations. Staff did not speak much English, but they were very friendly and welcoming! This place is a nice change from other restaurants we've been to in Paris. Highly recommend! read more

Hidden Gem within the city. Within the restaurant you are able to meet with a sommelier and sample wines that would match perfectly with your meal. the wines are reasonably priced, but you do have to account for taxes on the bottles. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. the servers were helpful and knowledgable. I ordered the charcuterie plate and it was delicious.! highly recommended. read more
