Pretty hard to find a decent cup in France but these guys hit the hammer on the head. Cute decoration and a variety of homemade cakes and other stuff.

On top of scrumptious looking pastries (cakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies...) as well as savory (which I did not try), this place offers a variety of interesting teas. I had the "Bushwick" tea and enjoyed every drop. As a tourist I was happy to find out one of the owners (Melanie) speaks English and was very helpful! Bonus, free wifi! It is also very well located. Overall, it's a very cute family run business and I will be back before I leave!

These are truly some the the best macarons I have ever had including those from patisseries in Paris and London. There are a range of beautiful subtle flavours baked into these delights from rose and truffle to pistachio and orange. The macarons themselves are good for five days so perfect for a weeks supply. As they came to approx 1.50 Euro each it may even be worth coming from London purely for them! They also have a range of sweet and wonderfully elaborate cakes in various sizes. We had the beautifully soft and chocolaty 'Pop Art' described on their site as:- 'Caribbean chocolate mousse with Tonka bean Salted butter caramel Burnt caramel cream Biscuit Carambar' The smallest one is less than 5 Euro and enough for two...I can see why they also have one called 'Addict' and another called 'Apocalypse'. They also sell bread and other baked pastries though we did not try these. This was genuinely one of the highlights of my trip to the city and one of the reasons its on my list for another diabetes risking Eurostar treat.
