The Peninsula Paris, L’Oiseau Blanc Paris rooftop in winter: menus and rules

Q: Can you go without staying at The Peninsula?

Yes: anyone can book a table online2, with a card as guarantee.

Q: Can you go up just for a drink?

In winter, yes, at L’Oiseau Blanc Bar4; the summer terrace comes back next year. Ring the restaurant first to ask whether you need a table and how late it serves.

Q: Is it the same place as the one on rue de Rome?

No. The brasserie L’Oiseau Blanc16 at 19 rue de Rome, in the 8th arrondissement, is another restaurant. The one with the stars is at 19 avenue Kléber.

Q: How much is the Balcony Table?

€1,500 for 25, dinner on a private balcony facing the Eiffel Tower. Its season ends on 31 October 2026; when it returns, ask at least a week ahead, and it is paid up front and non-refundable.

L’Oiseau Blanc in Paris is a rooftop table with 2 Michelin stars and, this winter, its bar: the summer terrace has closed for the season. Weekday lunch costs €125 a person, beside a replica of the 1927 biplane.

Who L’Oiseau Blanc suits in winter

Why go up

At noon the Seasonal Flight brings mussels, potato with caviar, pollock and fig to the table, service included.

The menus

When to look elsewhere

That menu disappears on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, and a drink with no dinner is simpler at Le Bar Kléber, which takes no bookings.

Without the lunch

A plane lost in 1927, above Paris

The name comes from a flight: in 1927 Charles Nungesser and François Coli¹ left Le Bourget to cross the Atlantic in a biplane called L’Oiseau Blanc. The replica in the courtyard beside the dining room is 75% of full size, and the plane comes back on Bernardaud’s plates.

David Bizet spent 18 years at the George V¹, winning his first star at L’Orangerie in 2017, then moved to Le Taillevent and took a second in January 2020. His cooking looks back to the Perche, where he grew up.

Hare à la royale is his autumn dish: the recipe won him a world title¹, and it arrives in 2 courses⁸, with a herbed haunch, radicchio, mimolette and sea buckthorn.
