Lights, camera, action! Welcome to Paris, the birthplace of countless cinematic creations, settings and inspirations.

Movies that were filmed in Paris restaurants -

Le Grand Vefour – Midnight in Paris Take a trip through time in the first ever grand restaurant to have been built in Paris! Tucked away in the Palais Royal, this was the meeting place of political, artistic and literary individuals for over 200 years. 

It comes as no surprise that Woody Allen chose to feature Le Grand Vefour in his fantasy film, Midnight in Paris, which perfectly complements the nostalgic aesthetics of the movie. Chef Guy Martin has managed to preserve the restaurant’s 18th century Parisian glamour, providing his clientele with a real ‘step back in time’ quality- an experience that echoes the essence of the film. In this way, Martin can only be described as an artist. He has triumphed in obtaining a perfect balance between tradition and modernity in the food served at this haute cuisine gem. 

This culinary decadence certainly comes at a price, costing around €300 per person, but the prestigious dining experience will be one to cherish forever. 17 Rue de Beaujolais, 75001 Paris. +33 1 42 96 56 27. www.grand-vefour.com
