Restaurants which are open on Christmas Day in Paris

Hi there Ann,

Thank you for visiting my Paris website.

Unfortunately I don’t have a list like this – but I sure would love one. I wrote some information on this on my website on this page, which might help:

https://www.a-night-in-paris.com/paris-restaurants-open-on-christmas-day.html – you will find restaurant links on this page.

One wonderful place you can try is Le Procope. It’s apparently the oldest restaurant in Paris and is open on Christmas Day:

You may find that the Christmas meal is more likely to be served on Christmas Eve rather than Christmas day, as that is the tradition in France. You can reserve online, by clicking on the link RESERVATION – EN-LIGNE (online) – perhaps you should contact them and ask for the prices in advance?

Le Procope Restaurant
13 rue de l’Ancienne Comédie
75006 Paris
Tél. : 01 40 46 79 00
Open from 10h30am to 1a.m.

I’ve also done a google search for you, which found a wealth of information – here are restaurants which others have written about as being open on Christmas Day.

I have no idea of the prices at each restaurant, but if there’s a website link you can easily check out the ones in those areas you’re interested in.
