The café is known for serving some of the best pour-overs in Paris, with coffee sourced mainly from Copenhagen-based roasters like Prolog and April. Apart from coffee, they also offer delicious fresh pastries every morning, including fig financiers, apple pies, banana bread, sweet chestnut cake, and their signature Japanese-style pudding (nihon-fu purin).
Ritz Paris Le Comptoir

PLAQ Chocolat
PLAQ Chocolat is a small and beautiful shop run by Sandra and Nicolas, a couple who previously worked in the fragrance and creative industries. They handcraft their own chocolate, desserts, ice cream, beverages, cookies, chocolate cakes, and tarts with seasonal fruits. The shop is known for its macaron noisette and rocher coco, a coconut with chocolate treat, and it also offers sheep milk chocolate.
Café les Deux Gares
Café les Deux Gares is an all-day café-restaurant between Gare de l'Est and Gare du Nord, known for its Parisian bistrot decor, natural wine list, and large sun-drenched terrace. The menu, crafted by Chef Jonathan Schweizer and Frédéric Lesire, offers delicious set and a la carte options, with the crispy ris de veau being a favorite among industry insiders. Perfect for travelers, its location near two major train stations makes it an ideal spot for a meal or a drink.

The owner, Nicolas Clerc, sometimes prepares sandwiches and Kouign-amann cakes that are highly recommended by patrons. This café is more than just a coffee shop; it's a humble expression of passion for quality and precision.
Buvette Paris
Buvette Paris is a cozy bistro offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner, making it a suitable spot for any meal or just a glass of wine.
