I have finally gotten around to organizing all of the info I have accumulated for our trip in late April, and have come to realize that some of the most valuable tips have come from Alexth82. My best friend and I have never been to Paris before, and your posts about nightlife, restaurants, and the different areas around the city have really helped me to feel so much more comfortable about our upcoming trip. Thanks!

you%26#39;re welcome :) but all of the other people who provide infos are very helpful also, i%26#39;m not the only one ;) have a nice trip and don%26#39;t forget to write a report when you come back.

You are too modest! :-) I%26#39;m wondering if I could get your opinion on where we should go the night we arrive. We will be travelling by Eurostar from London, and will arrive early Saturday evening to our hotel in the Latin Quarter. Could you recommend some of your favorites places to go out on a Saturday night? Thanks!

like i said i like the doobies a lot, but with a table i think it%26#39;s nicer. it%26#39;s a night club, i like the music, the ambiancem, it%26#39;s not huge. otherwise cabaret which is a bit fashion, sometimes with models and celebrities. there are so many places it depends if you want something a bit fashion or not, to just have a drink or to go to nigh club etc.

I read a little bit about Le Doobies on the web and it sounds perfect....what is a good time to arrive and would we need to have reservations if we decide to eat dinner? Also, what is your opinion of Lizard Lounge. Many people have recommended that bar to me. Thanks again!
|||
when i go to doobies to have dinner i go around 10pm, sometimes a bit earlier, and if you go ask if you can have a table just near the bar, not where the stairs are because it%26#39;s less nice there. the best tables are near the bar, and yes you have to reserve if you want to be sure to have a table. i%26#39;ve never been to lizzard lounge so i cannot help you with this sorry.
the disco at doobies begins around 1 am, more or less, at the beginning maybe you%26#39;ll think %26#39;oh nobody is there%26#39;, but 30 min later %26#39;oh there are too many people%26#39; lol. i like to have dinner there because it%26#39;s more calm, the music is nice, and i like to have a table when i go to night clubs to dance, there you can dance on the chairs lol.
|||
One more question....in most NYC clubs in order to have a table you have to buy a $350-500 bottle of liquor to have the pleasure of sitting down. Is it the same in most nightclubs in Paris?
|||
at doobies we paid a bottle of champagne something like 140 euros, but they have some mor expensive ones, and they have also vodka, whisky etc, around 150 euros i think (i dont like hard alcohol like vodka or whisky so dont know the price). but you%26#39;ll need to take one bottle if you want to keep your table, and when you arrive tell them you%26#39;ll be staying, and ask to be near the bar.
|||
Thank you, thank you, thank you! And if I see anyone dancing on a chair around 2:00am, I will know that there is a good possiblity that it is you. :-)

The price for a bottle of spirts is 120euros upwards, the club will have an area cordoned off to sit in, like a VIP area. The mixers will be free. Its well worth buying a bottle when you consider the price of the bar drinks. I speak from experience hic.....

So true. All of this advice is invaluable. Now let%26#39;s just hope that my friend and I aren%26#39;t too jetlagged to enjoy the nightlife of Paris!
