Looking for a nice bar to celebrate your birthday in Paris? Good news: the capital is full of perfect places to toast with friends, with private rooms available, music, and cocktails to share. It's well known that celebrating your birthday in a Paris bar has become a popular option for thirty-somethings, groups of friends, and colleagues who want to mark the occasion without necessarily renting a room.
Provided, of course, that you plan ahead, it's easy to find a bar with a reserved area, a festive atmosphere, and a menu that appeals to a wide range of tastes. Some Parisian bars even allow you to reserve a private room or cozy corner, sometimes at no extra cost, provided you meet a minimum consumption requirement.
Others offer special deals with cheese and charcuterie boards, happy hour, and sometimes even a DJ. Whether you have ten or fifty guests, the formats can be easily adapted. All that's left is to choose the atmosphere: an intimate cocktail bar, a lively pub showing sports games, a rooftop bar with views of Paris, a dance bar with a dance floor, or a more relaxed establishment with foosball and darts.
Sometimes you can evenbring your own cake to blow out the candles on the spot. So without further ado, here are some great bars to celebrate your birthday in Paris!
