Le Petit Journal St Michel sur Paris

Good old jazz club in the heart of Paris. I went on a Monday, not crowded during the week, felt almost like a private show. Amazing jazz music by talented and experienced musicians that connected to the audience. I even got to sing with them during the break and took a poster from the bar home! Barman was also talkative and friendly. Show is 15€ each and it’s charged with the check on your way out.

On March 2, we had a wonderful evening, starting with a dinner, the food was good, then the orchestra Daniel Barda and his guest Iris Oettinger were truly excellent. And it was with pleasure that we found a fairly full room. Thank you for this good time that we spent with friends and we look forward to our next visit to Paris to share another pleasant evening.

Very intimate atmosphere in this cellar. Daniel Barda, Philippe Souplet, Claude Tissendier and Stéphane Nossereau are excellent musicians who revisit the standards of Fats Waller, Duke Ellington and jazz from the 1930s. Friendly welcome. The main course and dessert menu is €60 (including entry to the concert) and a pint of beer is €16. It's not great cuisine but it's OK. We had reservations but there was still space. We recommend.

Very good evening in this legendary club. The concert + main course + dessert formula is good value for money

I often go to the Petit Journal which is a cult jazz place for me. A “live” program every day of the year with wonderful musicians. I sometimes read people's opinions. I am sometimes surprised by their criticisms regarding the prices and the catering. In certain jazz clubs in Paris (I will not mention the name) the price of entry is 29 to 41 euros. You have to add the price of drinks on top of that..And all that for 75 minutes of music. It's sure that it's a small cellar and there are many others like this one which make Paris one of the most charming. Le Petit Journal has a very important reputation abroad. big hats off to the boss of this club who makes efforts to keep the club alive despite a very tough economic time. My opinion, our duty (if we really love jazz) not to make misplaced criticisms and on the contrary to protect this heritage with love and indulgence.

The atmosphere is great, the food is even better!!

The musicians and instrumentalists play with a lot of love and professionalism.

Very Good Service, Very good Atmosphere, You will not be disappointed with the quality of the Cuisine.

This place is an institution with a rich history and great location. It’s also not touristy at all which is amazing for Paris. A general note; check prices before you enter any establishment.

One of the favorite corners in the world! Always with incredible performances!
