Kakoo Bar

Incredibly rude. Barely walked in with a takeaway crêpe from next door so my husband can check out the beer that they had and was literally shooed away. This bar is totally «kakoo» in the head!

You’d be cuckoo to go to Kakoo.
This was our second visit to Montmartre during this trip (I know!), but for good reason: chocolate and salted caramels at L’etoile d’or!
Understand that we came to this area immediately after the terrific fail at West Country Girl. I broke my Montmartre rule, and yes, once again, showed up hungry. And now, both my husband and I have a ridiculous craving for crepes. Kakoo is the other restaurant at the bottom of the hill across the street from Sacre Coeur. And yeah, they advertise crepes. So there you have it.
A few things you should know: I’m not a grudge Unilocaler; I rarely rate restaurants one star. If I do, I have a pretty good reason for it. So trust me when I say, don’t come here. And if you must come here, DO NOT, for the love of Sacre Coeur, order a crêpe, and more specifically, do not even think about ordering the chicken and cheese crêpe. Or, you know what, just do it for a laugh.
The chicken and cheese crêpe here was not only my worst meal in Paris, it was my worst meal ever. And let me tell you, my expectations were very low to begin with given the area. Even writing about it now makes me want to cry. I don’t know if I’ve ever felt so insulted in my life. That someone would pass this off as edible makes me lose all faith in the human race. Even before I took a bite I had a lump in my throat.
Imagine a boiled Foster Farms chicken breast that’s been sitting in the refrigerator for a week. No seasoning. Imagine sliced cheese; it’s France so even the cheapy cheese isn’t bad. But when one orders a chicken and cheese crêpe one excepts something creamier and with chucks of garlicky tender chicken not bland, dry shredded leftovers. The crêpe itself was rubbery.
My husband, who always tries to make the most of the situation, and who’s usually my human garbage disposal, could barely get down a couple bites. He even struggled to finish his own ham and egg crêpe, which he thought was okay.
On the upside, this place is pretty cheap – the don’t mark up. And service, while dickish, is not horrible.

We stopped here for a quick lunch after visiting Sacre Coeur. I usually try to order vegan and ordered the vegetarian pizza thinking it would probably come with cheese like an American pizza would. Was happy to see that it did not – it only had lots of nice veggies like eggplant, artichoke hearts, olives, peppers, and onions. And a nice thin crust and it was wood-​fired. Yum! My husband had a salmon crêpe which he also liked a lot.

I have sat here many many times and people watched… you will not be disappointed.

Alors que l’on est au cœur de la place des Tertres, Manu le patron du «Kakoo Bar «est parvenu à faire de faire de cet endroit un lieu convivial et pas seulement destiné aux touristes. Du coup, les tarifs s’en ressentent et sont abordables. N’oublions pas que nous sommes dans l’un des quartiers de la capitale les plus touristiques ! Mais au «Kakoo Bar «, vous pouvez y aller l’esprit tranquille !
Dès le petit déjeuner et jusqu’au dîner, l’équipe du bar vous attend pour vous proposer ses pizzas, ses crêpes, ses sandwiches ou ses copieuses salades. Service brasserie certes, mais tout sourire ! Et puis, si vous avez un peu de chance, vous tomberez sur le soir où la musique se joue live. Car le «Kakoo Bar «est également un lieu musical, où vous pourrez apprécier des concerts de chanson française ou de jazz.
