are you enjoying the Olympics ? Here are some places you can enjoy Paris in Raleigh.

Bloomsbury Bistro, 509 W. Whitaker Mill Rd., Ste. 101 | If you’re feeling French, you can’t go wrong with a plate of steak frites in this more casual setting.

Coquette, 4351 The Circle At North Hills St. | If you’re looking for a good brasserie, Coquette is the place. Don’t miss croque madames and messieurs at lunch or coq au vin at dinner. 

East End Bistrot, 2020 Progress Ct., Ste. 110 | This high-end spot is complete with plenty of fish, veal, and more exclusive bites. Caviar service? Oui, s’il vous plaît!

Jolie, 620 N. Person St. | Chef Scott Crawford’s venture into French cuisine makes for a bright + inviting space. Pro tip: Make sure you try for a rooftop table.

La Farm, various locations | Each La Farm boulangerie feels like it belongs in a little French village — don’t forget a rustic loaf and a few white chocolate baguettes.

Lucettegrace, 235 Salisbury St. | In addition to a wide array of patisserie, grab a jambon beurre box lunch. 

Looking for macarons specifically? Little Blue Macaron offers charming seasonal options and movie-inspired macrons to try before seeing a flick at the neighboring Alamo Drafthouse. Mon Macron makes lofty macron towers at its numerous 919 locations for special events. In addition to macarons, try a wide variety of pastry at Amitie Macaron. 

For more than just French food but French vibes, head to Lafayette Village for a mini European village in Raleigh’s backyard — and pick up some crepes along the way. 

Psst… if you can’t win a medal like our Raleigh-hailing Olympians, how about a Trophy… beer?
