Is it really a <a href="https://amaselections.com/france/luxury-holiday-apartments-rental-paris" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">trip to Paris</a> if you don’t fully embrace café culture? There are two sorts of cafés &#8211; the kind with uninspiring food and terrible coffee, but still with a charm that allows you to face outward with the masses and watch people strolling past. Then there’s the subset of coffee spots worth seeking out, who provide a memorable atmosphere and a truly artisanal cup.

Café Kitsuné



This French-Japanese lifestyle brand has the trendy coffee shop game down. With five locations in Paris, there is plenty of opportunity to get a nice cup at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cafekitsune/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kitsuné</a>. The most popular location is the one at Palais Royal, and it’s your best bet for a gorgeous locale. There’s usually a line, but it goes quickly. Grab your coffee and a table outside (the only seating available), or stroll the beautiful Palais Royal with its tree lined walkways, flowers, and fountains.

Coutume Café



<a href="https://www.instagram.com/coutumecafe/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Coutume</a> is an institution when it comes to quality coffee, crafted with care, in the city of light. Founded in 2011, the original location is in the 7th arrondissement, near the <a href="https://www.musee-rodin.fr/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rodin museum &amp; gardens</a>. They have since expanded to 10 locations. That doesn’t mean they are a cookie-cutter generic coffee shop. Coutume cares deeply about sourcing the best beans, and they have just about every method of brewing available. Add a perfect morning to your itinerary by having brunch followed by a stroll through the <a href="https://www.musee-rodin.fr/en/museum/musee-rodin/sculpture-garden" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rodin gardens</a>.

Ob-La-Di



Tiny but adorable <a href="https://www.instagram.com/obladicafe/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ob-La-Di</a> has been a top hip brunch spot for years. It’s a short menu with just 3 items: a “mess bowl” of Korean-influenced tofu, eggplant, rice &amp; kale, the ever-popular avocado toast, or fresh baked granola with yogurt. The distressed walls and marble counters at this Marais location make it quite Instagrammable and worth the attempt to snag a table or a cup to-go.

Café Marly



You could while away an entire glorious afternoon at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cafe_marly/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Café Marly</a> with its regal position overlooking the iconic Louvre pyramids. While it doesn’t exactly classify as artisanal coffee, its stunning surroundings more than make up for it. There’s not many other places that will give you the Paris café feel than being surrounded by palatial views and I.M. Pei’s glass pyramids under soaring archways. It will cost you a pretty penny, but when in Paris, darling.

Cuppa Café



For the trifecta of food, coffee &amp; atmosphere, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cuppacafeparis/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cuppa Café</a> has light yet ample plates of colorful brunch bursting with freshness (with vegan and gluten-free options). Go for the eggs benedict with the fattest slice of toasted brioche, smoked salmon, roasted mushrooms and poached eggs.or a perfectly baked scone. They don’t accept reservations, but still try to grab a little marble table surrounded by walls lined with monochrome books.

One of the most remarkable parts of <a href="https://amaselections.com/paris-luxury-holiday-apartments-rental/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Paris (opens in a new tab)">Paris</a> is the inherent beauty of its various neighborhoods. From the elegant Haussmann buildings to the colorful cafés to the extravagant monuments and bridges, each neighborhood has its own unique flair. It’s important to spend time wandering and absorbing the very Frenchness of it all.



With twenty arrondissements spiraling in a snail shell shape to make up the various sections of Paris, you’ll barely scratch the surface here, but these are five must-visit neighborhoods in Paris.

Marais



The Marais, which comprises both the 3rd and 4th arrondissements, is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque areas of the city. From the 13th to 17th century, the Marais was the coveted neighborhood of French nobility. They built sprawling private mansions, which give the area a constant sense of grandeur and beauty. You’ll find the oldest covered market in the city at Le Marché des Enfants Rouges, numerous art galleries, fashion houses, and hip stores.

Saint-Germain-des-Prés

Many writers and philosophers spent their days at the famous historic cafés of Les Deux Magots, Café de Flore, and Le Procope – now prime spots for people watching. Be sure to explore around Rue Mazarine, Rue du Four, and Rue Saint-André des Arts.

Montmartre



It takes a little while to get over to this charming hilly area in the 18th, but the views are worth it. You’ll find the Sacré-Cœur Basilica at the top, with a sweeping viewpoint over the city, cobblestone streets, and artists in the crowded Place du Tertre. This was the artists’ quartier during the Belle Époque, and you can still feel their enduring Bohemian spirit.

The 7th Arrondissement



The 7th doesn’t have a classy name like the others, but it’s a must-visit for its proximity to the <a href="https://magazine.amaselections.com/best-restaurants-near-the-eiffel-tower/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Eiffel Tower (opens in a new tab)">Eiffel Tower</a>, Les Invalides, École Militaire, and the dazzling Pont Alexandre III.

Île Saint Louis



Île St. Louis is the small island located behind Notre Dame and is a lovely afternoon stroll pre or post seeing Notre Dame Cathedral. It is practically tradition to get a scoop of the famous Berthillon ice cream while exploring the cute boutiques and watching musicians and performers on the bridges. If you wander down to the banks of the river, you’ll find Parisians enjoying wine with the view, particularly beautiful at sunset.

Les Cocottes 



A “cocotte” is a Dutch oven, and most main dishes at <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Les Cocottes (opens in a new tab)" href="https://lescocottes.paris/" target="_blank">Les Cocottes</a> are served in adorable tiny Dutch ovens. They’re open seven days a week (a rarity), and the staff is friendly and accustomed to speaking English without making you feel bad about it. The only catch is that there’s no reservations, but if you get there on the early side, you shouldn’t have to wait long. This is a no-brainer for a Sunday or Monday when many other restaurants are closed. You can’t go wrong with slow-braised beef or lamb, “pied de porc” stuffed in little potatoes as a first course, and the chocolate tarte for dessert. It’s also a necessity to order the waffle dessert which comes with a salted butter caramel that will make you move to France.

It also happens to be situated next to a fountain that dates back to 1806, a fountain constructed by Napoleon himself as an homage to Mars, the Roman god of war. Hence the name, “La Fontaine de Mars”.

L’Arpège ***



Three Michelin starred chef Alain Passard is a legend. If you’re intrigued by a vegetable-centric fine dining experience, <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Arpège (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.alain-passard.com/en/" target="_blank">Arpège</a> delivers. Of course, he’s a master at meat and seafood as well, but his vegetables are grown and delivered from his garden in Normandy every morning, so you can’t beat the absolute freshness and technical execution delivered by this culinary powerhouse.

Zia 



This American-owned brunch/lunch spot is a short jaunt from the Eiffel Tower, and it’s small but mighty. Light, bright, and airy, <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Zia (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.ziaparis.com/" target="_blank">Zia</a> is owned by Justin Kent, a French-American with a chef pedigree hailing from the likes of Arpège, David Toutain, and Verjus. In a short time, Zia catapulted to being known as one of the best brunch spots in Paris, worth crossing town for. Get the Dutch baby pancakes, breakfast burrito, or avocado toast. Don’t forget coffee, because this will blow any typical French café out of the water. Reservations will help you avoid a long wait.

Girafe



If you dream of dining with a truly spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower, then <a href="https://girafe-restaurant.com/en/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Girafe (opens in a new tab)">Girafe</a>, located on the Place du Trocadéro in the 16th, can’t be beat. This contemporary seafood brasserie is filled with class and elegance, from the crisp white tablecloths on the terrace to the stylish marble bar. If the langoustine raviolis are on the menu, they are not to be missed. The divinely buttery sole meunière is filleted tableside, and its decadence can only be matched by the equally decadent view of Lady Eiffel, almost close enough to touch.

Every visitor to <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Paris (opens in a new tab)" href="https://amaselections.com/paris-luxury-holiday-apartments-rental/" target="_blank">Paris</a> wants to dine at a traditional French bistro. It’s something we all want and crave, but it’s surprisingly elusive. For one, it’s the traditional French comfort food, rich and satisfying, that we crave while in the City of Lights. Secondly, it’s the atmosphere – dripping with old world Parisian charm, hopefully transporting us to another era.



The Parisian bistro can range from elegant and formal to laid back and boisterous. There are four bistros that stand out as the best in the city.

Josephine Chez Dumonet



For the hands-down best Beef Bourguignon in Paris, worthy of a last meal, reserve a table at <a href="https://chezdumonet.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Josephine Chez Dumonet (opens in a new tab)">Josephine Chez Dumonet</a>. They also happen to serve one of the best duck leg confits in the city (served with potatoes fried in duck fat).



The old-world charm and seriously delicious food make them well known, so expect to hear English. It may diminish the feeling of being in a French restaurant, but I can assure you that Parisians still dine here as well, and the food is worth it. Save room for dessert.

Benoit



For that charming Parisian feel on the upscale side, <a href="https://www.benoit-paris.com/en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Benoit (opens in a new tab)">Benoit</a> has a certain finesse. It stands out for its attentive service (another rarity in the bistro realm). Bow-tied servers will politely fawn over you, delivering food with the elegance of a timed ballet. If you prefer elegance rather than the hustle and bustle of more traditional bistros, then this is the place.



Start with foie gras on toasted brioche or hand-cut steak tartare, served tableside. Try their cassoulet, Corsican veal, or milk fed lamb served with fresh seasonal vegetables. Whatever you do, do not miss the glorious cheese cart.



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" width="950" height="660" src="https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3812" srcset="https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1.jpg 950w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1-250x174.jpg 250w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1-768x534.jpg 768w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1-700x486.jpg 700w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/paul-bert-1-120x83.jpg 120w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo Source: Bistrot Paul Bert</figcaption></figure>

Bistrot Paul Bert



This recommendation comes with a big asterisk. Service is sometimes slow and inattentive. If you can shrug that off and enjoy the atmosphere, you’ll absolutely love <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bistrot-Paul-Bert/113240745402588" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Bistrot Paul Bert (opens in a new tab)">Bistrot Paul Bert</a>. Two of the best things on the menu are the buttery sole meunière and the decadent steak au poivre.



You’ll find the steak listed in French on a separate chalkboard somewhere in the room (“Filet de boeuf au poivre du Sarawak”). It’s a thick filet that is perfectly seared and crusted with peppercorns, drenched in a heavenly cream sauce that’s been flambéed in Armagnac (French brandy), and served with a pile of golden fries, prime for soaking up that sauce. They will not cook this steak beyond medium, and it would be a crime to do so.



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" width="950" height="660" src="https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3814" srcset="https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1.jpg 950w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1-250x174.jpg 250w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1-768x534.jpg 768w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1-700x486.jpg 700w, https://magazine.amaselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/chez-georges-1-120x83.jpg 120w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo Source: Condé Nast Traveler</figcaption></figure>

Chez Georges (Rue du Mail)



If you want to be transported a hundred years back, then <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Chez Georges (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.facebook.com/chezgeorges1965/" target="_blank">Chez Georges</a> can deliver that step back in time. Once a favorite haunt of <a href="https://magazine.amaselections.com/julia-child-french-home-valbonne/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Julia Child (opens in a new tab)">Julia Child</a>, you can find all the classics here: foie gras, escargots, bone marrow, steak in Béarnaise sauce. Order the salad of frisée aux lardons as a starter. For dessert, you can find creamy tarte Tatin, crispy mille-feuille pastry, or a set of profiteroles drowned in warm dark chocolate sauce.



Wherever you end up, enjoy the chance to slow down, eat unbelievably good food, drink good wine, and spend an evening steeped in French culture, history, and charm. And always order the cheese course.
