Where to eat at and around Hôtel Molitor Paris

You are at the south-western edge of Paris, between the Parc des Princes and Roland-Garros, and Auteuil is quiet at night. Inside, Restaurant Molitor serves Mediterranean cooking with an Italian lean, facing the outdoor pool; Bar Bikini does lunch and cocktails on the terrace beside it; Le 1929 feeds guests and club members between the pools; and the rooftop opens from May to September. Outside, the places worth the walk are on Boulevard Murat, at Porte d'Auteuil and just over the line in Boulogne, and the one starred table worth a ride is two stops away on line 10.

    5 min walk

    Street market, Tuesday and Friday mornings · €

    A Paris food market on the pavement of Place de la Porte Molitor, on the sports-ground side, every Tuesday and Friday from 7am to 1.30pm.

On other days the neighbourhood has two more: the Marché Auteuil on Place Jean-Lorrain, on Wednesday from 7am to 1.30pm and Saturday to 2.30pm, and the Marché Point du Jour on Avenue de Versailles, on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. Between the three there is a market on every day but Monday.

    8 min walk

    Boulogne bistro, founded in 1948 · €€

    Just over the city line in Boulogne, a bistro founded in 1948 and still cooking on the old lines: hard-boiled eggs with mayonnaise, snails by the half-dozen or dozen, roast bone marrow, steak tartare served plain or seared on both sides, calf's kidney in mustard sauce and a Salers entrecôte at €35, then Valrhona chocolate mousse served from the ladle. Lunch is from noon to 2pm every day and dinner from 7.30pm to 10pm, Monday to Saturday; the weekday lunch menu is €26. Book for dinner.

  • Leonie Bakery

    9 min walk

    Organic bakery, open from 7am · €

    A branch of a small group of Paris bakeries where bread and viennoiseries are made by hand on the premises from organic and CRC-certified flours, with natural leaven and at least 24 hours of fermentation. It opens at 7am from Tuesday to Saturday and closes at 8.30pm, opens from 8am to 7.30pm on Sunday, and closes on Monday. It is the cheap alternative to the hotel's €37 breakfast, and the place to stock up before a day at the tennis or by the pool.

    Fish and seafood, whole fish to share · €€€

    A fish and seafood dining room on Boulevard Murat, run by Jérôme Vigato and Romain Dubuisson with the backing of the chef Jean-Pierre Vigato, and listed in the MICHELIN Guide without a star. Order the fish soup with rouille, the whiting Colbert with fried parsley, or a whole fish for two or more, chosen by the day's catch, and the Grand Marnier soufflé. It serves lunch and dinner Monday to Friday and dinner only on Saturday, and closes on Sunday. Book, and ask for the terrace in summer.

    10 min walk

    Porte d'Auteuil brasserie, breakfast to late · €€€

    The smart brasserie of the western 16th, at Porte d'Auteuil, open from 7.30am to 12.30am on weekdays and from 9am to 12.30am at weekends, so it is the answer at almost any hour, Sunday evening included. The September 2026 menu runs from Burgundy snails at €24 and steak tartare at €26 to calf's liver at €34, a filet with pepper or béarnaise sauce at €44 and a whole sole at €72, with a sommelier's wine list and cocktails.

  • Auteuil Brasserie

    3 min by car

    Mediterranean brasserie, rooftop and cocktail bar · €€

    A big, colourful brasserie at Porte d'Auteuil, open every day from 9am to 1.30am, with a terrace and a rooftop, which makes it the late drink near the hotel. The cooking is Mediterranean and made for sharing, with mezze from €7.50, pizzas and plancha grills, and the bar pours a long list of spritzes alongside its own cocktails. At weekends there is live music and a DJ. It is eleven minutes on foot or three by taxi. Go for a drink before dinner, or stay for the evening if you want a crowd rather than the quiet of Auteuil.

  • Comice

    7 min by car

    One-star dinner, two Métro stops away · €€€€

    The starred table worth the short ride: Noam Gedalof cooks and Etheliya Hananova runs the dining room, under blue walls hung with modern art, and the 2026 guide gives it one star. From Michel-Ange-Molitor, ten minutes from the hotel, take line 10 towards Gare d'Austerlitz two stops to Mirabeau, then walk five minutes; a taxi takes about seven. Dinner only, Tuesday to Saturday, with tables from 7pm to 9pm. The menus are €125, €150 and €175, and à la carte means a starter, main and dessert each; the chocolate soufflé to share is €48. Book well ahead.

Our verdict

Book Molitor for the water: the rebuilt 1929 pools, a serious spa and a room that looks out over the cabins. Central Paris is a Métro ride away, so plan the days around the pool rather than the other way round.
