La Flèche d’Or

I studied abroad in Paris and was lucky enough to hear about this place from a french friend! It's a bit of a walk from the nearest métro (which is a bit of a rarity in most of Paris!), but totally worth it. However - last I knew (spring of 09) they had changed from being free to charging a cover of 6€ (I believe that was the price - if I remember correctly). However this comes with a complementary beer (about a demi size). In between band sets they play music you can dance to (note - not just your average euro club music, a good mix). There is seating (couches and stuff) near the back. If you're not from the area - maybe wouldn't recommend walking it alone at night, locals probably don't have many concerns. Wanna get away from glamorous Paris for a bit, and see some locals, and some great music? This is your place!
