Love the 18th!! So underrated but there is sooo much to do, I’m due another exploring day there very soon…

Sadly enough, I have been one of those annoying tourist who only came to 18th Arrondissement for Sacre Coeur and did not explore other places. But I came to know about the lovely neighbourhood only later that, and I really wish to go back to Paris to explore more of these unexplored corners, perhaps some day! But many years back when I visited the place, there weren’t many vegetarian restaurants. It’s good to see so many veg and vegan restaurants here!

Montmartre is my favourite part of Paris! Although I have to admit, I’m a little bit guilty of heading to the tourist hotspots and maybe overlooking some of the other gems in the area. I’ll keep this guide to hand so I can appreciate more of it when I next visit. That breakfast is definitely on the list…it looks phenomenal! Thank you for the wonderful guide!

I had honestly never heard of the 18th Arrondissement before reading your post. Thanks for giving us some insider tips! It’s great to get another perspective at such a high profile destination.

How fortunate you are to have met with Lily and to now share with us all the wonderful insider information. I agree, that the 18th arr is much more than Sacre-Coeur. There is so much history to those original neighbourhoods that I’ve read about – Passy, Buttes-aux-Cailles. The winding side streets and alleyways and you are right, those views. I love the list you shared of the eateries and shops. I have already pinned for my future reference. Thank you for transporting me back to Paris if only for several minutes.

Coquelicot looks like my kinda brunch spot! Although, I didn’t think it was possible to find a >bad< bakery in France?

Such a beautiful place in Paris. I lived in the 19th arrondissement for a few years and spent a lot of my weekends roaming the streets of Abbesse and Montmartre. This is a great post featuring local shops and restaurants and not just those tourist spots at the Sacre Coeur. Thanks for showing the real 18th!!

It’s so great to get the insider scoop on all of the best places to eat, drink, see and do in the 18th Arrondissement Montmartre. Some of the eateries look just divine, such as Bossue bakery. We also appreciate the honesty that the service in some places may be slow, but they’re on French time!

I love your Paris guides. Hopefully, they are building to an E-Book someday. That bakery looks devine. I have heard how many French bakeries following more of an American model where they bake bread prepared offsite. Hopefully, that doesn’t happen too often, because these bakeries are a cultural treasure, and delicious to boot.

I have only been to Paris once and it was only for a few days so I would love to go back an spend more time away from the touristy areas exploring places like this! So charming and great photos 🙂
