Le Coq Et Fils

Tucked away on the charming slopes of Montmartre, Le Coq Et Fils is a haven for anyone who takes their poultry seriously. This industrial-chic dining room has built its reputation on serving some of the finest heritage breed chickens in Paris—birds so carefully sourced that some have even graced the table of the French president.

The star of the show is undoubtedly the whole heirloom bird, presented on a literal pedestal for couples to share. But don’t overlook the quarter chicken if you’re watching your budget—it receives the same meticulous preparation as its more expensive cousins. Each bird is slow-poached in rich broth before being roasted until the skin achieves that irresistible golden crispness, all served in a pool of savory jus that hits just the right balance of richness.

Round out your meal with their exceptional green salad, brightened with sherry vinegar, and don’t miss the confit garlic—spread it generously on the hearty sourdough bread for an unforgettable bite. The romantic hilltop setting makes this spot ideal for date nights or impressing visitors with a truly Parisian dining experience.

Whether you opt for the showstopping whole Gascon rooster aged 200 days or the more accessible quarter portion, Le Coq Et Fils delivers an authentic taste of French culinary tradition with every perfectly roasted bite.
