La Mangerie

Le Marais, Ménilmontant & Belleville


A heaving ‘after work’ drinks venue, La Mangerie offers a good choice of wine by the glass and Spanish-inspired tapas (with plenty of gluten-free options). But the real reason to come is the buoyant, buzzing atmosphere, overseen by charismatic front-of-houser Serge. The powder-blue space, with grocery crates used for shelving, is charming.
