The Paris Market is essentially like an antique shop, museum, and classy cafe all came together at once. It has a perfect vibe and aesthetic that is honestly very calming when you've been rushing around the streets of Savannah prior to walking in the door. I highly recommend getting any flavor of latte (hot or iced) as well as their incredible Parisian hot chocolate. Both were delicious and actually worth the $6/$7 price tag! Then, you can stroll around the main level and lower level shop and admire all of the treasures. I can't wait to visit again soon!

I also ordered a salad similar to a Waldorf with salmon, which somehow managed to be dry and firm even though it was not overcooked. Overall ingredient quality isn't great. Service was friendly but also spacey - waiter didn't bring us waters until we asked. Crowd seemed to be mostly older SCAD/art patrons in the area. Overall you might get a good photo but that's all you should expect, recommend staying away.
