Rue Mouffetard used to be one of the great market streets in Paris. Despite the small town atmosphere, this narrow cobblestone street is quite busy and touristy, but not least interesting! It’s filled with bakeries, specialty shops, creperies, low cost shops and lots of fruit stalls.
All the way up on Rue Mouffetard at the junction of 2 other streets (Rue Lacépède and Rue Cardinal-Lemoine) you will find the charming and vibrant Place de la Contrescarpe with a few more options of restaurants that help to set the festive mood all day long. Pick a table on the terrace and enjoy the Parisian way of life!
