A very cosy bar is this Bar Anglais at the Hotel Raphael. Since it's tucked back inside the hotel, past the entrance foyer and the reception and concierge desks, it's mostly known to the embassy staffers and top-notch lawyers who all have offices in the neighborhood. But that's not to say that the barman won't welcome you warmly, too. This is one of those bars with red velvet couches, wood-paneling and an old-world mahogany wood bar that truly evokes the London of a bygone era. The drinks on offer are classics like martinis, old-fashioneds and the ever-popular Parisian favorite, mojitos.
This is a good spot for a late-night, night cap or even a late afternoon aperitif (when the weather's cold outside). Starting from about November and especially through the holiday season, this is one of the most subdued and inviting bars in which to enjoy a drink in Paris.

- Nightlife near Parc des Princes: "A perfectly sophisticated place for when it's cold outside and you're in the mood for a good, stiff drink. For the summer time, while this is also a good choice, their roof top bar is where all the action is."
- Best for Nightlife near Parc des Princes Because: This bar is cozy and has the intimate feel of a London Club.
