About

Le Procope, located at 13 Rue de l'Ancienne Comédie in Paris's 6th arrondissement, is a historic French café‑restaurant that traces its roots back to 1686. Originally opened by the Sicilian chef Procopio Cutò, it became a celebrated gathering place for philosophers, writers, and artists such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Diderot. Today, the establishment continues to honor that legacy with an 18th‑century‑style ambience, fine dining, and classic French dishes. The menu offers a variety of entree‑to‑dessert combinations priced around €26–€34, while a daily lunch menu is available in the afternoons. Whether exploring the café’s storied past or sampling its modern cuisine, guests will experience a blend of history and hospitality.
