The food in Paris is out of this world, but it can weigh heavily on your wallet. The city has something like 120 Michelin-starred restaurants (putting it only second to having the highest number in the world), and if you grab a snack in the wrong spot you could be looking at accidentally spending €20 on a sandwich and a drink.
But hey, even in a bougie city like Paris, there’s always going to be something affordable hiding round the corner – you just have to know where to look. Lucky, the team at Time Out Paris know their stuff, and have spent years scouring the city for its best affordable snacks, testing everything from bibimpap to ramen and €15 lunch deals. We know, it’s a hard life. Without further ado, here are the best cheap eats in Paris right now.
