Imagine telling your friends, “I had dinner at the Eiffel Tower!” Sounds like a dream, right? Well, you can make it a reality with a visit to one of the two restaurants perched high above the City of Lights. While the location is undoubtedly spectacular, these dining experiences are more than just a tourist trap—they offer delicious cuisine and breathtaking views.

Le Jules Verne: A Culinary Masterpiece with a Romantic Touch
For a truly special occasion, head to Le Jules Verne on the second level of the Eiffel Tower. This luxurious restaurant, accessible only by private elevator, offers a unique dining experience that’s as memorable as it is exquisite.
While securing a reservation can be a challenge—think three weeks in advance for lunch and three months for dinner—the wait is worth it. Le Jules Verne isn’t just about the food, although star chef Alain Ducasse delivers culinary delights. It’s about the romance, the elegance, and the immensity of the moment.
Expect to pay a premium for this gastronomic journey, with dinner averaging over €150. Lunch offers a more affordable option and is easier to book. But remember, if you have to ask about the price, it’s probably not for you!
A Touch of Champagne at the Eiffel Tower
For a more casual experience, head to the Champagne Bar on the top floor of the Eiffel Tower. Sip on a glass of premium champagne while enjoying unrivaled panoramic views of Paris for a mere 10 to 20 euros.
Snacks and hot and cold beverages are available throughout the Eiffel Tower, from the base to the third level, for less than €10. This is a perfect option for a quick bite during your visit.
To avoid long lines (which can reach up to 3-4 hours), be sure to plan your visit strategically. Pre-booking your Paris Orientation Tour + Lunch at the Eiffel Tower + Cruise guarantees you skip the queue. Trust me, I’ve learned this the hard way!
Whether you’re looking for a casual lunch with stunning views or a romantic dinner with a touch of Parisian elegance, the Eiffel Tower restaurants offer an experience you won’t forget. So book your trip today and get ready to dine with the stars!
