Pastries and fruit juices on the terrace of the Bar Vendôme at the Ritz Paris

Terraces open to the sky

The Ritz Paris terraces are destinations in their own right, catering to every taste and occasion from the festive to the romantic, the convivial to the intimate. Our outdoor tables play host to coffee at daybreak, a gourmet interlude shaded by magnolias, or the full gastronomic dining experience. Guests come to celebrate a family event or to say “I do” for life. You might step away from the world to leaf through a book, sit and think, take a stroll, or simply breathe in the starry summer night.

A Michelin-stared terrace with a view of the garden

Picture this: a Michelin-starred restaurant in the heart of Paris, opening onto a magnificent garden serenaded by birdsong. Much like a private dining room, the Espadon restaurant welcomes a small number of guests in a warm, intimate atmosphere. The Burgundy stone terrace hosts fine dining in a lush, green setting. Pottery from Anduze sits alongside Mediterranean plants, while benches under rose-covered arches present a captivating view of the Grand Jardin. As the courses unfold, the blue of the sky gives way gradually to the glow of lanterns, and sometimes to the stars. The whole moment seems suspended in time.

A chic open-air brasserie

How delightful it is to linger on the terrace of our Bar Vendôme. Imagine elegant tables set beneath floral facades; the gentle murmur of the nearby fountain; clinking glasses; laughter and smiles. In an atmosphere both peaceful and vibrant, the chic brasserie at the Ritz Paris moves to the rhythm of the hotel, reflecting its discreet buzz. From first coffee to farewell glass, this charming haven invites you to enjoy delightful moments: afternoon tea; a glass of champagne; a refreshing cocktail; a refined lunch from a seasonal menu. Dining on the restaurant’s terrace is especially magical on summer evenings, as the light follows the changing hues of the Parisian sky.

A taste of summer at the Ritz Bar

From spring through late summer, the Ritz Bar sets up in the Grand Jardin, our oasis of nature in the heart of the city. In an atmosphere both summery and chic, guests gather to drink in the romance of a perfect sunset. The air is mild, the flowers in bloom, the setting spectacular. The Ritz Bar refines the art of the cocktail through refreshingly inventive creations. Designed by our Head Bartender, the menu of signature cocktails leads us on a journey through the world’s most beautiful gardens: a feast for the eyes as much as the palate.

Breakfast on the terrace of the Prestige Grand Jardin Suite at the Ritz Paris

The ultimate dream stay: a suite with outside space

A balcony above the trees; a secluded terrace encircled by vines and clematis; a private rooftop space with views of the capital’s most beautiful landmarks. Some suites open right onto the great outdoors, revealing a landscape that invites a romantic escape. Whether enjoying breakfast, a book or both, the sense of rediscovered calm encourages you to linger for hours. When it’s time for an impromptu drink or private dinner, the precious moment is shared by family or partner in complete privacy. There are indeed Parisian hotel terraces where understated luxury, nature, and the “art of living” come together in perfect harmony.

Le Grand Jardin

Behind the facades of Place Vendôme, this great homage to greenery reserves the privilege of its enchanting serenity exclusively for guests of the hotel. The Ritz Paris Grand Jardin makes the ideal venue for a private outdoor reception: cocktail parties, evening events, garden parties, weddings... Allowing endless customization, the setting lends itself to every type of event, from the largest to the most intimate. While its alcoves serve as cozy conversation nooks, the wide pathways invite a romantic scene or spectacular entrance. In the summer months, the elegant glass roof of our Salon d'Été opens onto a tree-lined terrace, serving as a natural extension of the main garden.

A jewel of greenery

The hotel's hidden gem, our French-style Grand Jardin resembles a majestic green ribbon, with white flowers for lace and boxwood embroidery, sheltered by linden trees. Dotted with alcoves, statues, a trellised walkway and a decorative pond, the harmony of the garden unfolds before the eyes of guests observing from their balcony or hotel terrace. This protected ecosystem in the heart of the city is a truly living landscape. You’ll find birdhouses, fruit trees, and a collection of magnolias, jasmines, rosebushes, and hydrangeas. Perfect for enjoying in both summer and winter, the garden invites you to take a pastoral stroll, lulled by the song of blackbirds and warblers.
