Restaurant with Terrace in Paris
Sunny terrace and homemade cuisine in the heart of the 20th
Your Terrace Restaurant in Paris, in the Heart of the 20th
Finding a restaurant with a terrace in Paris where you can sit in the sun and enjoy fresh, house-prepared cuisine is harder than it sounds. At Café Juliette, 1 rue d'Avron in the 20th arrondissement, our plant-filled terrace has been part of the restaurant's identity from the start. Thirty outdoor seats, a south-west facing aspect, greenery all around: eating outside here is never second best.
Less than ten minutes' walk from Place de la Nation and served by Buzenval, Avron and Nation metro stations (lines 1, 2, 6, 9 and RER A), Café Juliette draws regulars from the Avron neighbourhood as well as Parisians from the east — the 11th, 12th arrondissement, Bastille. If you are looking for a terrace restaurant near Nation or Gambetta, you have found it.
Open seven days a week from 8 AM to 1 AM, our terrace lives to the rhythm of the neighbourhood: morning coffee over the newspaper, weekday lunch with colleagues, sunset aperitif, candlelit dinner. On Sundays, it is the outdoor brunch that draws families and groups of friends. Continuous service with no gap between lunch and dinner is a practical plus you won't find at every restaurant in the 20th.
Our Terrace
Café Juliette's terrace is a carefully designed space for your comfort. With approximately 30 outdoor seats, it benefits from ideal sun exposure that lets you enjoy the sunshine throughout most of the day. The plants and greenery that surround it create a warm and intimate atmosphere, a true secret garden in the heart of Paris.
Heated in winter with radiant heaters, our terrace is accessible all year round. In summer, it transforms into a true urban oasis where you can relax under parasols. Whether you're alone, as a couple, with family or friends, you'll always find a lovely spot to enjoy your meal outdoors in the 20th arrondissement of Paris.

Eating on a Terrace in Paris: What Makes the Difference
There are hundreds of restaurants with terraces in Paris. Most of them set a few tables out on a busy pavement, between parked scooters and traffic noise. At Café Juliette, rue d'Avron is a quiet, tree-lined street in the 20th arrondissement, set back from the main boulevards. The terrace faces south-west, which means generous sunshine from midday until sunset. In winter, outdoor heaters keep the space comfortable so you can stay outside.
Eastern Paris has become one of the most sought-after areas for outdoor dining in recent years. The reason: wider streets, more spacious terraces and a neighbourhood feel that the central arrondissements have sometimes lost. The 20th, between Père-Lachaise, Gambetta and La Campagne à Paris, keeps that mix of food shops, local bistrots and residential quiet. Metro lines 1, 2, 6 and 9 converge at Nation, making the neighbourhood reachable from the Marais in fifteen minutes, Bastille in ten or République in twenty.
Weekday business lunch outdoors, Sunday brunch in the sun, Friday evening aperitif with friends: the Café Juliette terrace fits the occasion. The cooking is done on site every day with fresh seasonal produce. For more, read our guide to the best terraces in the 20th arrondissement.
