Budget Food - Couscous

Tight budget? Grab some couscous for the price of a drink.

La Choppe, 75018

Almost famous French food couscous is served from the meat, vegetable and couscous platters, to create your own dish. Be generous with the sauce.

If you’re on a tight budget in Paris, it’s Friday or Saturday night and you can afford to buy yourself a drink, pop over to La Choppe and get a free dinner.

From 8.30pm the delightful owner Samir starts serving delicious Moroccan couscous (with all the trimmings) to anyone who’s bought a drink (prices are approximately €4 which is around around £3.50 at time of writing).

Get there at least an hour in advance to ensure you get a seat – this place is VERY popular with locals.
