52 Faubourg Saint-Denis
A street that lives out loud. A blend of flavours and scents. The popular and the bourgeois side by side.
Set right on rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis, the 52 Faubourg Saint-Denis, all soft brutalism, contrasts with its surroundings while standing as a neighbourhood landmark. Completely open-plan, it is a space made for living, where everyone can enjoy a coffee, settle on the terrace, have lunch for two or dinner for five. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, the clientele eclectic.
At 52 Faubourg Saint-Denis, the bistronomic cooking is careful without being pretentious.
In the cellar, the crystalline precision of Domaine Vacheron in Sancerre and the refined elegance of Elisabetta Foradori’s wines make up a list that is accessible, curious and varied.
And through it all, a certain idea of a place to live is celebrated.
A lively elegance, made as much of rigour as of joie de vivre.
