Quetzal is a long-standing gay bar in the Marais, one of Paris’s main LGBTQ+ districts. Small in size but big in atmosphere, it draws a mixed crowd of locals and visitors who pack in for drinks, conversation, and music that runs late into the night. The interior is simple but buzzing, with friendly staff and a casual, social mood. Quetzal works both as a warm-up spot before heading to a club or as a place to stay all evening. On weekends it gets crowded, which only adds to the fun. It’s Paris nightlife in an intimate, easygoing setting.
