Aperitivo in the sun: Our terraces in Châtelet and Place d’Italie

As soon as the first rays of sunshine pierce through the Parisian gray, an irresistible urge takes hold of the capital: the urge to settle onto a terrace, a drink in hand, to celebrate the end of the day. It’s the sacred moment of the aperitivo. At Ti Amo, we’ve turned this Italian ritual into a true institution.

Whether you’re in the heart of bustling downtown Paris or the vibrant 13th arrondissement, our terraces at Châtelet and Place d’Italie are the perfect spots for a sunny break.

Aperitivo: Much More Than Just Happy Hour

While aperitivo is often compared to Happy Hour, the reality is far more delightful. In Italy, aperitivo is a way of life, a bridge between work and dinner. It’s the moment when you whet your appetite (the word comes from the Latin aperire, to open) while sharing the latest gossip or the day’s successes.

At Ti Amo, we embrace this philosophy: freshness in the glass, generous portions on the plate, and above all, sunshine on our terraces.

1. Ti Amo Châtelet: The Epicenter of Chic and Chill

Located in the 1st arrondissement, our Ti Amo Châtelet restaurant is the strategic meeting point for all Parisians. Between metro stops (lines 1, 4, 7, 11, 14, and RER) and shopping trips to La Canopée des Halles, our terrace offers a welcome respite.

Why choose our terrace in Châtelet?

• Maximum accessibility: It’s the perfect meeting spot to catch up with friends from anywhere in the Île-de-France region.
• Urban vibes: Soak up the energy of downtown Paris while relaxing in a setting that exudes Italian charm.
• Shopping & Drinks: After a busy afternoon at Rivoli or the Forum des Halles, nothing beats a refreshing Spritz to rest your bags (and your feet).

2. Ti Amo Place d’Italie: La Dolce Vita in the 13th

If you prefer a slightly more “neighborhood” vibe but just as lively, our location at Place d’Italie is your top destination. Just a stone’s throw from Butte-aux-Cailles and the Italie Deux shopping center, this terrace is bathed in light.

The highlights of Place d’Italie:

• After-Work Vibe: It’s the go-to spot for nearby offices. People come here to unwind with colleagues after a marathon meeting.
• Late-afternoon sunlight: The layout of the square lets you soak up the sun’s rays until late, perfect for vitamin D lovers.
• Local vibe: A delightful mix of 13th arrondissement residents and passersby, creating a warm and authentic atmosphere.

In your glasses: A cocktail menu that takes you on a journey

A successful aperitivo starts with the right drink. At Ti Amo, our bartenders have Italian classics down to a science, while adding a touch of our own creativity.

The Spritz in all its forms

The Spritz is the undisputed king of our terraces. Whether you prefer the classic Aperol Spritz for its sweet smoothness or the Campari Spritz for its distinctive bitterness, each glass is served with a slice of fresh orange and that perfect fizz that sparkles with joy. For the adventurous, try the Hugo, the floral variation featuring elderflower liqueur and fresh mint.

Italian Wines and Craft Beers

For those who prefer wine, our selection of Italian wines (Pinot Grigio, Chianti, Prosecco) is sourced directly from small producers. We also offer light Italian beers, perfect for quenching a summer thirst.

Snacks: The Flavors of Italy to Share

In Italy, you never drink without eating. To accompany your cocktail on the terrace, Ti Amo offers a selection of antipasti and specialties to share that capture the essence of the region:

• Fine charcuterie platters: Prosciutto di Parma, bresaola, and spicy salami, thinly sliced to melt in your mouth.
• Characterful cheeses: Roman Pecorino, creamy Gorgonzola, or balls of Mozzarella di Bufala.
• Our famous pizzas: Why not order a pizza to share at the center of the table? Our artisanal crusts, light and crispy, are the perfect accompaniment to your drinks.
• Homemade focaccia: Olives, rosemary, and extra virgin olive oil—purity in its simplest form.
