Tucked into Paris, Le Comptoir Général is one of those places that quietly earns its reputation — the kind of bar you walk past once, then think about all week. Plant-filled canal bar, low light, and the locals quietly resent that we wrote about it.
Best at the edges of the day — late on a weeknight, with no rush — and worth the detour even if you're staying on the other side of town. Bring a friend, leave the phone in your bag.
