In Paris, November 1, 2026 won’t stop food lovers from gathering around the table. This day is a public holiday in France because it is All Saints’ Day, a Christian holiday dedicated to all saints and celebrated since the 9th century, when families gather in cemeteries to remember their departed loved ones.
Every year, All Saints' Day is an opportunity to take a breather from the hustle and bustle of the city, hang out in bed in the mornings, and why not have a good time in a restaurant? Because while All Saints' Day often marks a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, many of the capital's restaurants still keep their doors open, ready to welcome gourmands in search of a good meal.
Whether it's a family lunch after a visit to the cemetery , or dinner with friends, it's perfectly possible to find a welcoming address, particularly in tourist areas, large Parisian brasseries and certain neighborhood bistros.
It's the perfect opportunity to enjoy a gourmet interlude in a warm and welcoming setting, even in the midst of the Parisian autumn. For those with a bit of foresight, it's a good idea to check with the establishments to make sure they're open, and call ahead to reserve your table.
