Au Coin de la Rue — Restaurant in Paris

We have never experienced such appalling customer mistreatment anywhere, let alone a touristic capital such as Paris. We were a party of three (one of us 81 years old) and spent €56 to lunch there. We were polite and only occupied our tiny table for about 40 minutes. While we were still ordering (food, soft drinks, and tap water), the bald man serving as the place’s cashier came to our table and rudely told us that we were ordering too little and that we should order bottled sparkling water instead of just requesting tap water (which is totally fine to ask for in Paris). When we complained about his mistreatment, they told us that it was not a problem, which it obviously was for us. The man never apologised for ruining our meal and making us feel unwelcome. He treated us like we owed him something and he lacked the slightest sense of how to treat customers. With thousands of superior options nearby, we wouldn’t ever enter this...

I live nearby, and it's one of our "regular haunts"! For a shared treat, don't miss their variation on a fondue - wonderful...
