Lonely Planet review for La Coupole

The famous mural-covered columns (painted by such artists as Brancusi and Chagall), dark wood panelling and soft lighting have hardly changed an iota since the days of Sartre, Soutine, Man Ray, the dancer Josephine Baker and other regulars. The reason for visiting this enormous, 450-seat brasserie, designed by the Solvet brothers and opened in 1927, is more history than gastronomy. You can book for lunch, but you’ll have to queue for dinner; though there’s always breakfast. The more expensive menus are available until 6pm and after 10.30pm.

    Beautiful, legendary brasserie on Blvd. Montparnasse

    berginger recommends this,

    If La Coupole is too crowded or too pricey, there is a quieter, small cafe across the street that will do just fine.

    Not good for: low budget
