Café Bastille Review

Business is brisk in this award-winning restaurant, and you might have to queue if you want to savor old favorites like French onion soup, coq au vin, and Provençal fish soup. You might also consider the rabbit kidneys, chicken livers, and pigs' ears. With its sunny yellow interior, timber floors, French posters, and mirrors, it feels like a friendly neighborhood cafe. It's sometimes a squeeze but worth it for the rich, succulent tastes.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
