The Batignolles quarter is the main reason to come all the way to the northwestern corner of Paris: it’s an authentic, quaint area chock-full of hip restaurants, cafés, and shops. Trendy bars dot the streets around Place de Clichy, while the area by Pont-Cardinet train station is part of a sustainable eco-district surrounding Martin Luther King Park: don’t miss HoBa, a cool snack bar with a view perched atop the middle of Martin Luther King park. You can spend a whole day here criss-crossing the streets and enjoying a mostly tourist-free experience.
