Paris has many lovely options for a sunny afternoon drink but this little wine bar and restaurant boasting in an outdoor courtyard is one of the best.

Although the interior of Les Bistrot des Dames is charming with its old style bar, retro décor and old advertisements adorning the walls, most locals know the bistro for its little courtyard haven. 

No surprise that the venue, which is also known for its wine bar, has an extensive wine list with plenty of options and temptations. Ask for advice if U feel a little lost. While the restaurant boasts a rather healthy lineup of fares including, duck carpaccio, artichokes and buffalo mozzarella, and tuna medallions with a balsamic sauce. If U have some room for dessert be sure to try the pear sorbet with cognac or the crème brûlée with ginger. 

But above all, be sure to enjoy the sunshine and tranquillity.
