Get DirectionsAbout Rhumerie La Paillotte
Rhumerie La Paillotte is a rum bar that runs compact salsa nights on a small dance floor tucked next to the bar, reviewers call it a “comfy dance floor” and praise good ventilation. DJs spin salsa (one review names Colombian DJ Julio) and the room also hosts occasional live jazz evenings; the space doubles as a tapas spot so dancers share room with seated guests.
Opening listings show evening hours midweek to weekend, with later closing (to 02:00) on Saturdays, so nights can run late. Expect a neighbourhood 6th‑arrondissement crowd, casual dress and a strong rum menu rather than a club-style programme; the vibe is intimate and local rather than sprawling. If you want a big open floor or formal classes every night, this isn’t it, but if you like DJ salsa tucked into a rum bar with friendly staff and tapas, La Paillotte is an easy drop-in for an evening of social dancing.
