Le Next friendly local DJ bar
17 rue Tiquetonne, 2ème • 01 42 36 18 93
Open to 4am Mon-Fri, to 5am Sat
This often-rowdy joint, with its slightly schizophrenic
design scheme (a nondescript bar at the front,
leopard print and red velvet out back), attracts a big-
drinking crowd. As its name suggests, Le Next is a
perfect stop on a bar crawl, but it also cuts it as a
destination drinking haunt or pre-club rendezvous.

Somo chic and sleek
168 rue Montmartre, 2ème • 01 40 13 08 80
www.hip-bars.com Open to 2am Mon-Thu, to 4am Fri & Sat
Somo's laid-back vibe attracts both twentysomethings
and financial types from the nearby stock exchange.
They come in droves for the great cocktails - try the
delicious champagne-based mixes or the lethal-but-
lovely mojitos. Low-slung leather chairs, chill-out
music and subdued lighting complete the picture.

Le Café Noir bobo spot
65 rue Montmartre, 2ème • 01 40 39 07 36
Open to 2am Mon-Sat
A retro-chic café, complete with winking neon signs,
formica tables and boozy bonhomie. Le Café Noir is
home from home to countless bourgeois bohemians
(bobos), who come to get their creative juices flowing
and discuss anything from tonight's hottest club to
the trainers worn by the bloke behind the bar.

Le Rex superstar DJs, dedicated clubbers
5 boulevard Poissonnière, 2ème • 01 42 36 83 98
www.rexclub.com Open to 6am Wed-Sat
Big on famous names and atmosphere, but low on
attitude, this place is all about the music. Be prepared
to queue for weekend sessions from top DJs (French
and international), but other nights are ultimately no-
fuss, hardcore dancing sessions led by the next big
thing. Brilliant house music and truly top techno. ADM
Le Bar well-kept secret
27 rue Condé, 6ème • 01 43 29 06 61
Open to 4am Mon-Sat
Le Bar is a late-night gem: the narrow back bar's dim
lighting and leather benches are perfect for a spot of
seduction, and the gravel floor is certainly unusual.
As this is such an insider's address, people tend to
mingle easily. The owners often serve up iced vodka
shots when it's time to stagger out in the early hours.
