La Nouvelle Seine, Floating restaurant near Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, France
La Nouvelle Seine is a restaurant housed on a moored barge in the Seine River, featuring both indoor and outdoor seating with views of Notre Dame Cathedral. The vessel includes dining areas and a performance space for events.
The barge began operations in 2013, converting a traditional river vessel into a dining establishment in central Paris. Since then it has developed into an established venue for meals and events.
The restaurant blends French cooking with entertainment, hosting theater performances and live shows in a dedicated performance space. Diners enjoy cultural acts while eating.
The establishment operates Tuesday through Sunday with direct access from Quai Montebello in the 5th arrondissement. It is wise to check opening times before visiting, as seasonal variations may apply.
The vessel is anchored on the river, allowing guests to watch Paris monuments illuminated at night while dining. The gentle motion of the water beneath adds a subtle, unforgettable quality to the meal.
