5 Super Cheap Eats in Paris

1. Jambon Fromage Sandwich

You can find this ham and cheese sandwich on a french baguette at just about any boulangerie (bakery) in Paris. It will only set you back about 2-5 Euros, add a drink with it for another euro. Its a great grab and go meal to enjoy in the many parks around Paris. I have enjoyed many of these!


2. Crêpes

Paris is known for their sweet and savory crepes. From ham, cheese and tomato to banana, chocolate and whipped cream. My favorite is a nutella crepe. Au P’tit Grec is an amazing place for a cheap and delicious crepe. Just around the corner from the Pantheon, their sweet and savory pockets of deliciousness will cost you between 3-8€. Metro stop: Place Monge




3. Falafels from L’As du Fallafel

 
It doesn't get much better than a shawarma (gyro) or a fallafel plate from L'As du Fallafel. Ok, its not the cheapest place on the list with a shawarma at 10.50€, but it's totally worth it. Either dine in or take away this will fill you up for the rest of the day. The tzatziki sauce is wonderful, the lamb was cooked perfectly and the vegetables were very fresh and you'll find the service to be efficient and very friendly. 5 stars from me, and so many others! Metro stop: Saint-Paul or Hotel de Ville


4. Baguette and lots of cheese

Especially in the summer, Parisians love to take their lunches to the park. Visit the nearest boulangerie (bakery) for their best baguettes and pick up local french cheeses from a fromagerie (cheese shop), located all around Paris. Don't forget your favorite bottle of wine, cider or champagne, because nothing goes better with cheese than some vino. Depending on the cheese, your lunch will cost around 3-5€ per person for a baguette to split and 3-5 cheese samples.










5. Quiche 

Many boulangeries have this simple meal ready to go for around 2-5€. Quiches have many ingredients from cheese and spinach to tuna and tomato. Kozy Cafe, just around the corner from the Eiffel Tower serves up a simple brunch for under 8€. Metro stop: École Militaire
