The story
Le Drugstore in Paris positions itself as a contemporary French brasserie that deliberately frees the menu from rigid conventions. Advisory chef Éric Frechon reimagined the space at this Champs-Élysées address, assembling a kitchen that embraces global flavors while maintaining a distinctly French cooking style. Guests encounter a daily rotation of simple dishes alongside occasional spectacular signature plates. This approach aligns with its selection as a We’re Smart Green Guide pick for 2026, prioritizing mindful service over heavy tradition.
The day begins promptly at eight o'clock with a dedicated breakfast card featuring fresh bread, butter, and house jams. Afternoon visitors can pause for homemade pastries crafted by the dedicated pastry chef during traditional tea time. The kitchen also prepares shareable spreads like salmon rillettes, black olive tapenade, and green pea hummus for early appetizers. These lighter options bridge the gap between casual snacking and formal dining.
A separate bar menu introduces crafted cocktails paired with savory finger foods for aperitivo hours. Dinner service continues well into the night, allowing guests to order everything from straightforward comfort meals to highly detailed courses. The attentive staff ensures that every visitor enjoys a relaxed atmosphere regardless of the hour. This continuous flow of energy makes the venue a reliable destination for modern French cuisine.
