La Bonne Franquette, a famous restaurant on Montmartre Hill in Paris.

 Following Le Consura, the must-visit or take photos at Montmartre Hill is "La Bonne Franquette."


Location


It's attached to Le Consula Cafe, so it's not difficult to find.
It is located within a 5-minute walk from the Sacré-Coeur Cathedral, which symbolizes Montmartre Hill, and a 5-minute walk from Paris Metro Line 12 or Line 2 station.

La Bonne Franquette

If Le Consula Cafe is in the red hues, La Bonne Franquette has a dark green exterior, captivating the attention of Touris with its contrasting colors.
Against a deep green background, a gold sign, white windows, and an outdoor terrace are etched into the minds of a typical European image for an Asian like me.

Cafe Monet, Emil Zola, and Goho


In the late 19th century, Montmartre was a restaurant frequented by painters when it was a center for artists, and its history spans nearly 200 years.
Van Gogh's 1886 work, "The Tavern in Montmartre" Since it's the cafe that serves as the backdrop, it's a place you can't miss. Besides Goho, it was a cafe frequently visited by artists such as Monet, Cézanne, and Émilezola.


La Bonne Franquette means "a comfortable atmosphere where you eat and drink without formality."

Menu

As a tourist destination with traditional French home-style meals, escargots, beef bourguignon, and wine, the prices are relatively high, but considering that these celebrities frequently visited this place with a long history, it seems manageable.
Salad costs around 14 euros, frog leg dish costs 29 euros, vegetable spaghetti costs 16 euros, sausages and vegetables costs 18 euros, and Black Anger Burger costs 21 euros (as of June 20, 2020).
With over 150 types of wine sourced from all over France, it is a popular spot among wine enthusiasts.


I hope you choose this restaurant thinking of it as a place that buys the atmosphere rather than the price or taste.
The usual backdrop for movies and advertisements.
It's hard to notice a significant difference between Le Conchula and La Bon Francuet. It's located right next door, and the menu composition isn't much different.
The important point is that this area was once a place where prominent figures in the French cultural scene discussed their social and artistic style, and it is still receiving attention through movies and advertisements.
It is said to be the setting area for films like Amelie and Midnight in Paris, and is frequently used in promotional videos by the French Tourism Board and travel agencies.


Be careful


Like Le Conchula, the streets around La Bonne Franquette are a place where a really large crowd travels.
Like other European countries, there are many pickpockets. It is said that during peak season, it is almost automatically pushed out.
I have personally experienced a case where one of the group members lost their cell phone and suffered a major setback, so special attention is needed.
