Combat

On the heights of Belleville, the Combat district is home to the eponymous bar of Margot Lecarpentier, named in honor of the fight for women’s equality. For once, the vibe isn’t speakeasy-style with velvet curtains and dim lighting. Combat transitions from shadow to light with its large windows that disappear when summer arrives, where the sloping terrace and arty interior merge into a lovely bar with a cheerful atmosphere and impeccable cocktails. It’s even said that you might run into a certain Alain Ducasse, who admires the talent of this vibrant bartender with extraordinary skill.
