Paris is the destination for gourmets and the food-obsessed. Always moving, it’s hard to keep up with its food scene. But if you’re a die-hard foodie looking for something new to experience, these three spots are definitely worth checking out. From the food market overlooking the Eiffel Tower to the restaurant located inside of the largest startup hub in the world, discover these brand new foodie hotspots in Paris that kicked off 2018 – and upped the ante.
Le Printemps du Goût

Located inside of the prestigious Printemps department store, on the 7th and 8th floors of Printemps de l’Homme, to be exact, this three-month-old food market is equipped with a view – and one of the best views in the city, may I add. Grab a coffee from Café Lomi or enjoy a glass of rosé on the terrace, feast on a meal courtesy of Michelin-starred chef Akrame Benallal, purchase made-in-France fine foods and produce, and shop brands like La Maison du Chocolat, Byzance, and Le Palais des Thés. All of this, and more, under one roof, views of the Eiffel Tower included.

This popular pop-up, which has moved around from summer to summer, now occupies the Halle Charolais in the 12th arrondissement. Boasting some of Paris’ favourite eateries, like Faggio, Mr Zhao, and Peppa Porchetta, among others, along with a wine bar and a speakeasy-style cocktail bar, it’s also filled with a boutique, a gallery space, and an outdoor area (where most locals are stationed, drink in hand) with a garden. Keep an eye out for workshops and events held here!
Station F

Housed in an old, 1920s freight hall, Station F is slated to become the largest startup hub in the world, hosting 1,000 startups. This massive campus is also home to Big Mamma Group’s latest – and biggest – restaurant venture yet, Mamma F. After making waves with their multi-floor SoPi restaurant, Pink Mamma, this brand new Italian haunt is sure to shake things up. Spanning 3,500 square metres, the restaurant occupies 1,000 seats, four kitchens, a bakery, a coffee shop, and much more.

OBESSED with Paris and eating! Will be back sometime this year so hopefully I can check out these yummy places to eat
Same!!! Glad you’ll be back soon to take advantage of these gems 🙂
I’m not a fan of Paris. Bad experience and I haven’t returned to undo my negativity. BUT when I do, I’m definitely heading to Le Printemps du Goût for wine on the terrace and that view!
I think the view from their terrace can definitely turn that around 😛
Station F is awesome. I love the concept and what they are doing there. Wouldn’t it be cool if Detroit did that with the old Grand Central Station? I love how it is simultaneously urban decay and rebirth. I bet the food there is amazeballs.
Yeah, it’s super innovative! I love how they implemented food into the mix.
Given the chance, I would go for Le Printemps du Goût because of the views. Also Station F for its uniqueness, those plants are lovely and provide refreshing views. With its massive space, I’m sure Station F offers many food choices for a fine dining experience.
Yeah, the views are unparalleled! Station F is pretty impressive too!
I love the look of Station F! That’s so cool it used to be an old freight hall and is now due to be the biggest start up hub.
Yeah, isn’t it impressive!?
Paris is on the list. Surely gonna check these out once in the city. Station F looks awesome. I loved the overall concept of that place, it looks so fresh, green and lively.
Cool – hope you visit soon 🙂
We will be in Paris for a week in October. Sent this to my hubby. I am sure we will wine and dine in these 3 spots. Thanks!
Thank you! Have a wonderful trip 🙂
These look like amazing places to eat. I have to say that I love the design and use of space at Station F. Plus, I’d love to try that new Italian restaurant there. I LOVE Italian food.
It’s definitely impressive!!!
I find station F a cool and unique concept! Mama F sounds like a really massive shop and I’d love to have a coffee at their cafe. I love food posts, I usually search for these when I am visiting a new city!
Yeah, I totally do the same 😀
These places look so cool! I’ll have to try and bear in mind when i next visit the beautiful Paris. I’ve not visited since going gluten free so should be an adventure!
