DRINK

Best place to people watch in the St. Germain Odeon area. The Terrace in the Odeon neighborhood may be enough to convince you to stop in for a drink, but don’t pass up the snobbish old money interiors created mostly with Parisian flea market finds of old leather chars and taxidermist “melange”

A glass of wine is between 4 eu and 9eu.
