Paris Belleville And Père Lachaise

Given that it's mostly a residential neighborhood, Belleville has very few nightlife options. Crowds tend to be exclusively local, so this is a great place to see how Parisians really get down.

Lou Pascalou, 14 rue des Panoyaux (☎01 46 36 78 10), The uncontestable #1 hotspot of the 20th arrondissement. On summer nights, a crowd floods out of the bar and vies for chairs on the terrace.

Takes credit cards. Serves alcohol. Has outdoor seating.
Le Miroir, 111 bld. du Ménilmontant Cheap beer and strong cocktails attract a local crowd.

Takes credit cards. Serves alcohol.
Café Ménilmontant, 143 bd. Ménilmontant 01 47 00 08 98 This cafe du quartier offers great happy-hour deals on wine glasses and pints.
