Le Trumilou is a long-running traditional French bistro in Paris’s 4th arrondissement, at 84 Quai de l’Hôtel de Ville on the banks of the Seine, just across from the Île de la Cité. It’s a no-frills, generous “cuisine parisienne maison” address that has been a fixture of the Right Bank dining scene for decades.

## What to expect at Le Trumilou

This is honest, home-style French cooking served in a warm, slightly old-fashioned room that has changed little over the years. The kitchen leans on fresh, seasonal produce and the comforting classics of the French repertoire, and the riverside location near the Hôtel de Ville makes it a handy stop before or after exploring the Marais. Open every day, it’s an easy, unpretentious choice when you want a real Paris bistro rather than something polished for tourists.
