This attraction should be send down the ladder. Forget the restaurants - you get that food anywhere in paris. The shops were nothing special or innovative. Save your time and go to an open market on a Saturday. more

Rue Cler was definitely worth the visit, but on the recommendations of 2 other reviewers, we ate at Cafe Rousillon. Service was OK, but the food was barely edible. My girlfriend ordered a fish dish which was very dried out/chewy (overcooked) and I ordered a chicken sandwich which ended up being a small 'chicken patty' worse than a McDonald's processed... more

Based on the comments here, we visited the street on Sunday morning in Aug. BIG disappointment! Most shops were closed, the ones that were open were very touristic. Some foodshops didn't look that bad, but I definitely prefer Rue Mouffetard for specialty shops and nice atmosphere. In short: not bad to live in, but not worth the detour! more

If you only have a short time in Paris then make sure you visit Rue Cler. It is a street not far from the Eiffel Tower where you can buy such amazing fresh food. We then walked to the Eiffel Tower and had a picnic in the park, the walk is pleasant and took about 10 / 15 mins. Not... more

We were lucky to run upon Cafe Roussillon as our first eating establishment during our recent stay in the Rue Cler area. We were totally satisfied, thinking that we would have many such encounters in Paris. However, after nothing but disappointments elsewhere - high prices, poor selections, and very discourtious service - we returned to Cafe Roussillon for our last... more

In June 08 I stayed in the Grand Hotel Leveque, which is located on Rue Cler. Rue Cler is the ideal parisian spot. Staying in a hotel on Rue Cler was a perfect way to spend my week in Paris. There was a fish market, cheese shop, wine shop, several cafes, a bakery, and many others. I must admit the... more

We spent 4 nights at Relais Bosquet Hotel, and when we walked down the street and turned the corner and saw Rue Cler I was so excited. There were multiple cafes & bistros, a fromagerie, chocolate shop, charcuterie, green grocers, a creperie and more all on a cobblestone street that doesn't allow vehicles. This is in the 7th arrondissement and... more

We went to Rue Cler as the sun was setting and were disappointed to see the shops were just closing up. I recommend visiting before things close down as it looked like a quaint little street with vendors and their wares spilling out onto the cobblestone street. Happily we discovered a great little crepe/ Greek place on Rue Cler that... more

The Rue Cler neighborhood is one of the most charming places in Paris! Wonderful restaurants and gourmet food shops are just outside your hotel's front door. Be sure to stop by Martine Lambert Sorbet & Glaces at 192 Rue Grenelle for the BEST ice cream in Paris! The shop is about 1/2 block from Rue Cler. We stayed at the... more
