Lonely Planet review for Place du Tertre

Half a block west of the Église St-Pierre de Montmartre which once formed part of a 12th-century Benedictine abbey, is place du Tertre, once the main square of the village of Montmartre. These days it’s filled with cafés, restaurants, tourists and rather obstinate portrait artists and caricaturists who will gladly do your likeness. Whether it looks even remotely like you is another matter.

    Tourist but a MUST

    paulayruben recommends this,

    Tucked closely to the west of the Sacre Couer, this charming area is one of the best places to people watch as you down some great wine in one of the many restaurant's outdoor dining areas. We had the best crepe of our trip here and experienced the worst artist. She drew a pencil portrait of me that wasn't even close. But she had a great story and deserved the 50 euros.
