Parisian bars stand out every year as some of the best in the world. And when we look not just on a global scale but simply on our continent, France shines just as brightly. The list of Europe’s 50 Best Bars has just been revealed for 2026, and Paris makes its mark with five of its establishments featured in the ranking. 


Crowned Famous Parisian Bars

Their names? Trust us, you know them well by now, as they've become true institutions! In 5th place, we have the Bar Nouveau, and in 7th place, it’s The Cambridge Public House. Next up is Danico in 19th position, followed by Harry’s Bar Paris in 27th place, and finally, De Vie in 34th place. This last one has also received an individual award, the Ketel One Sustainable Bar Award, which honors environmental commitment and how establishments source their products.


Athens, London, and Barcelona shine brightly in the European rankings

This year, it's Greece taking the spotlight: two bars in Athens, Line and The Bar in Front of the Bar, snag the first and second spots in the rankings. Barro Negro and Baba au Rum follow closely in 13th and 14th place, while The Clumsies makes its mark at the 30th position.
