This bar was shipped piece by piece from Manhattan in 1911, and one of its bartenders claimed to have invented the Bloody Mary here.

Ernest Hemingway claimed to have "liberated" the Ritz bar from the Nazis in 1944, and the small bar here now bears his name.

Founded in 1686, this café served Voltaire, Rousseau and Benjamin Franklin, and claims to be the oldest café in Paris.

This old crèmerie has fed hungry writers for generations, and Woody Allen chose it as the place where Gil first meets Hemingway in Midnight in Paris.

Three of the most famous cafés in Paris share this corner of Saint-Germain, where Sartre, de Beauvoir, Hemingway and Picasso all held court.

Le Dôme, La Rotonde and Le Select cluster around this crossroads, the heart of café life for the artists and writers of 1920s Montparnasse.

Long before Hemingway claimed a seat at its bar, this café drew Émile Zola, Paul Cézanne and Oscar Wilde.
