Guinguette, Riverside bar in Champigny-sur-Marne, France
The Guinguette is a riverside bar in Champigny-sur-Marne located on the banks of the Marne River, east of Paris. The venue features a sprawling outdoor garden with seating for up to 300 people on its terrace.
The bar continues the tradition of riverside entertainment venues that emerged in the late 1800s as social gathering spots near Paris. These places became popular escapes for working people seeking relaxation and leisure away from the city.
The venue reflects French riverside dining customs with locally sourced dishes and space for petanque, darts, and table games. Visitors gather to eat, play, and socialize in a setting that has drawn people together for more than a century.
The establishment opens Thursday and Friday from 7 PM and Saturday through Sunday from midday, staying open until late. Group reservations are welcome and help ensure a good experience for larger parties.
The venue sits on an island and operates only during fair weather, which makes every visit feel special. This seasonal nature gives the place a fleeting charm and makes time spent there feel like a rare escape.
