The Labo

This place is a gem! The people who come here are very friendly and open-minded. The karaoke party was very nice, a little bit too much time to wait for my turn. Thank you for making my last night in Paris memorable!

My boyfriend and I grabbed a drink here after an evening out. We were greeted upon arrival and sat quickly. Drinks were great and as described. Overall a good experience.

I would put zero to service if possible. They have WiFi written all over and an available network but the waiter refused to give me the password when asked and gave me the dirtiest looks. There’s literally no internet coverage inside the bar. Overpriced drinks: they do take advantage of being near Chatelet to boost drinks’ prices to that insane amount, no other queer bar in Paris is this expensive! Rude service! The waiter was dismissive and snobbish. We left immediately after. For tourists: most queer bars in Paris are actually friendly and welcoming, don’t have your experience ruined by this less of a service because of a rude person confirming all negative Parisian stereotypes.

Didn’t appear to like English, Welsh or Kiwis. Staff have bad attitude towards anyone who isn’t French. Happy hour prices of 7€ for any cocktail? We were charged 9.50€ per cocktail. When I challenged this I received a very angry response saying ‘That’s the price !’ and they walked away. Not worth the grief for none French people.

The waiter dropped the martini in my friend’s pants and he didn’t even offer us a discount on the drinks even though he apologised… The cocktails also were overpriced for the quality. Don’t recommend.
