A Unique Culinary Experience at Boulom
Boulom is a hidden gem in the northern district of Paris, just 650 meters from the Guy Moquet metro station (Line 13). However, finding a parking spot nearby can be quite challenging, so public transport is recommended.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Boulom is its entrance. The dining area is concealed behind a bakery shop, and guests must pass through a hidden door to transition from the bakery to the restaurant—a surprise that sets the tone for the experience.
This is a self-service French gastronomy restaurant, offering homemade dishes crafted with fresh French ingredients. Upon arrival, the Chef de Salle welcomes you, explains the concept, and provides a basket of freshly sliced bread, featuring different varieties. Guests can request additional bread and even take some home.
The ambiance inside is reminiscent of a canteen, but there are still a few small tables available for more intimate seating. It’s highly recommended to book a table online or by phone for lunch or dinner, as the restaurant can get quite busy. Also, be mindful of the closing time indicated on Google, as the evening team begins clearing the food displays around 11:00 PM.
One small improvement could be the staff’s attire—an official uniform would enhance their presentation and align better with the restaurant’s ranking.
As for the value for money, there is absolutely nothing to complain about. Boulom delivers quality and authenticity at a fair price, making it a must-visit spot for lovers of French cuisine.
