Liquiderie BAR — Wine bar in Paris

Julien Maillet turned a former betting shop in the Belleville neighbourhood into one of the coolest bars in Paris. A concrete floor, sanded walls, industrial furniture, neon light from the Chinese restaurants outside, and 24 pages of liquids on the menu. Popular with 20- to 40-year-olds and wine and beer professionals who come here on their day off. Recognised by Star Wine List. 400+ natural wines and 200+ craft beers: a combination you won't find anywhere else in Paris done so consistently. A whole wall of taps, with natural wine and craft beer on draught. Julien deliberately works with low prices, rare in Paris: Riesling from Les Vins Pirouettes on tap for €4.50, Gamay from Jean Maupertuis for €29 a bottle, Sauvignon from François Blanchard for €34. Beers: IPA from Mont Salève, Cantillon gueuze, Citra pils from Popihn. Bites from close by: Taggiasca olives, cooked Aveyron sausage, finocchiona, sardines. There's a separate Liquiderie Cave wine and beer shop within walking distance in Oberkampf.
