Le Petit Ney, the associative, literary and playful café where you can go with your children

Between the metro stations Porte de Clignancourt and Porte de Saint-Ouen, you can find the Petit Ney, a literary café installed on the edge of Paris and managed by local residents. Although the café is primarily an association, it is open to all: members and non-members are welcomed with open arms in this space dedicated to reading and conviviality.

For the older ones (teenagers or adults), the Petit Ney offers many reading cafés to discuss a common reading, game cafés, writing workshops, slam... And you can also share a rest with the volunteers and inhabitants of the district during lunches or brunches organized by the participative canteen, every Friday, one Saturday per month and every first Wednesday of the month as well, to cook and then share a meal together (on registration, free participation but membership required).
