Le Piano Vache

just when you thought paris was too sheeky neeky, this is one of the best bars in the latin district that combines youth, kitschiness, and 5€ pints . . .they play music in the evenings and the people are in and out . .. the decoration is a mix of old music and art posters and old student id photos. i love it and it's located amongst the narrow streets of the latin quater . .. i definitely end up here a lot

a short walk from the pantheon, le piano vache is a a quintessential student rock/metal bar. the place is teeming with locals/regulars on the weekend, with its poster-plastered walls and alternative atmosphere providing a much-wanted relief from other tourist-infested places. watch out for random evening-closures (even on weekends) and, perilously steep staircase into the basement toilets. i’d rate in amongst the top bars in paris

This place was great there’s nice alternative people, friendly bartenders who understand enough english to help you out. Good metal/rock music & atmosphere..Two (!) bars for days when it gets crowded.. the walls are covered in band posters which is very cool. in short: recommended. Only thing is.. i’m not sure they play metal every night so you may want to do a little research.. or just drop by like I did - I loved it. :)
