This Seaport Brasserie From 1873 Serves French Classics
Dine on escargots and Croque Madames in a historic room once frequented by Thomas Edison and Bob Dylan.
🍽️ Dinner With Historic Company
At The Paris Café, dinner comes with a South Street Seaport backstory that reaches to 1873. The brasserie occupies a landmark building on the federal registry of historic places at 119 South Street. Its past company includes Teddy Roosevelt, Lauren Bacall, Butch Cassidy, Thomas Edison, and Bob Dylan, a guest list with serious New York history attached.
The kitchen serves rich escargots and Croque Madames alongside cheeseburgers and crispy fries. Craft cocktails join the evening lineup, and an occasional live jazz singer adds a soundtrack to dinner indoors. Weekend brunch shifts outdoors, with dogs welcome at those daytime tables.
Service runs Wednesday and Thursday from 4 PM to 11 PM, Friday from 4 PM to midnight, Saturday from 11 AM to 3 PM and 5 PM to midnight, and Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM, with Monday and Tuesday closed.
