The Crémerie-Restaurant Polidor is a historic restaurant in the 6th arrondissement of Paris open 365 days a year. Its predecessor was a cheese shop founded in 1845 and the crémerie part of its name derives from the French cheese, eggs and cream it first sold as a fromagerie. In 1890 the owner changed it into a bistro restaurant. It has had its present name since the beginning of the 20th century.
The modest Belle Epoque interior of the restaurant is basically unchanged for over 100 years, and the style of cooking remains that of the late 19th century. Its tables have well-fed many writers, artists, Sorbonne University and Collège de France students, local residents and visitors to the neighborhood for over 175 years.
