There’s nothing quite like claiming a spot on a Parisian terrace. At Brasserie Dubillot on Rue Saint-Denis, the energy is just right, people watching, animated conversations and the constant flow of passersby heading towards the historic Porte Saint-Denis.
Sitting here, you’re perfectly placed in one of the city’s oldest and most vibrant streets.
Whether you’re enjoying a coffee, a glass of wine, or a proper brasserie meal, these moments on the terrace are what make any day in Paris feel special.
As we have said Rue Saint-Denis is one of the oldest streets in Paris, once a royal road leading north out of the city. The grand Porte Saint-Denis triumphal arch at the end of the street was built in 1672 to celebrate Louis XIV’s victories.
“A Paris terrace is never just somewhere to sit, it’s a way of observing the city at its own pace.”

Each Thursday we take a seat on one of Paris’s terraces, those open-air rooms where the city’s everyday life unfolds in full view.
