A 50s diner, no big deal – but a 50s diner in the midst of Paris offers a surreal, Lynch-like experience.
Brunch Transatlantic style (pancakes, bacon, eggs, a “Bottomless Mug O’Joe”…) is served at all hours of the day. The plus – they also serve beer.
The scene is mostly made up of Parisian hipsters, nostalgic foreigners, and the occasional French greaser. Go for banana milkshakes after a vintage movie screening at Action Ecoles: the perfect end to the perfect anglophone evening.
