Nice cafe across street from Paris Catacombs.  Everyone working here was very pleasant, quick to serve, seemed a bit overwhelmed at times, but very nice.  I wouldn't suggest going when they are extremely busy, but the time of afternoon we went seemed to be a good pace for them. Good food, drinks, and comfortable environment.

Café Daguerre is a small cafe that bookends Rue Daguerre. Comprising of a well stocked bar and an outdoor dining space, the cafe is both welcoming and homely. You pick any open table of your pleasing, then wait until the lively waiter greets you and hands you a small menu of drinks. I started off by getting the Campari Mojito (7.5€) which is a spin on the classic drink. The Campari added a nice touch to the minty taste of the Mojito and overall the drink was well balanced and refreshing (as any good Mojito should be!) 5/5 To follow the Mojito I ordered a Tartine called the meridianale (10€) , which was a beautifully toasted whole grain bread with roasted peppers, sun dried tomatoes and eggplant, topped off with a hearty helping of a mozzarella gratine. While the bread and the vegetables were great and complimented each other, the cheese was slightly overpowering and a little on the heavy side. The cheese had a very nice smoky quality that would have been wonderful in a more reasonable amount. The dish was also served with a small side salad that was slightly bland and ordinary. (3/5) Overall the Café Daguerre was a pleasant experience due to its vivacious outdoor atmosphere and it's well crafted cocktails.

This was our first time in Paris and we did not speak a single word in French except bonjour. We arrived late in the evening and wanted to grab something to eat. We found this cafe around the area as we searched for a restaurant that still had their kitchen open. The staff were very friendly and spoke good English. We were seated right away and they took our orders right away. Food was good, nothing special. They checked-in a couple times, which was nice of them.

Despite the fact our waitress was super awesome, this place was just really fun and cool to be at, right on the corner of Rue Daguerre. At first the waitress spoke French w/me as I tried to decide where to sit, then she overheard my husband and I speaking English and she started speaking English, but perhaps my pouting as she walked away to get our menus worked, as she returned with a French one for me and an English one for Theron. As we'd already had a pretty hearty dinner snack just down the street, we opted for desserts. The crepes here are really terrific - and this is coming from a gal who has had many an excellent street-crepe. They are sweet, fluffy, and come with lots of options for fillings. Of course the fact they set the grand marnier on fire table-side was a cute stunt we couldn't pass up. The nutella crepe was of course by and far the winner (when is it not?) - though my hubby also loved the apple tatin I ordered, which came with only crust on the bottom and excellent, pure vanilla-ice cream. Here is where I tried (finally) for the first time on this trip the local pastis (an anise flavored drink) - think licorice... and Theron had the grogg (hot rhum with hot water and sugar served on the side). I loved our experience here and, when in the area again, will go back and try the dining options. I hope our blond, spiky haired, chain-wallet wearing waitress is there when we return!

Breakfast Anglaise - €10

I went out on a sunny morning in Montparnasse in search of a quiet, inviting place to eat breakfast. I happened across Café Daguerre and couldn't have been happier. I made my way inside for a look around and then stepped back through a side doorway into a closed off outdoor section in search of a table that wasn't in the direct sun. I found one in a non-smoking section which was a pleasant surprise. The wooden tables were clean and clear of place settings. I was cheerfully greeted by a waiter asking if I was interested in breakfast and although he didn't offer me a menu, took me through what was available - breakfast Anglaise was the ticket for me - ham omelette, orange juice, croissant, coffee and bread for the (Paris) reasonable price of €10. My meal arrived in no time flat and it was delicious. The croissant was warm & moist, the eggs done perfectly (which to me means fluffy and moist, not dry and hard). This was exactly what I was looking for. If you're interested in catching up with world events on your iPad over coffee, free wifi is available. As we all know, there is no shortage of cafés in Paris. Of those I've tried, Café Daguerre stands out for it's cleanliness, surprisingly cheerful staff and better than average food. It was a fortunate choice. If you're in the neighborhood, you won't be disappointed.

Excellent food and service! We were greeted and seated as soon as we get in. We ordered breakfast this morning and it was reasonably priced. Our meal came in with omelet (ham or cheese) crossiant, jelly with baguette basket, fresh squeeze orange juice with pulp, coffee with milk froth topped and water for 10 euro. Our waiter was super nice and very cheerful. We will definitely eating here tonight again to try their dinner menu.

We stopped here right after flying into Paris and it was such a delight. All the desserts were so…read moredistinctive and crafted so eloquently. The apple had a lightness to it yet the middle had a fresh apple crunchiness. The other two treats were wonderful. We ordered flat white's and they were done perfect. The staff spoke English as well as French (which was helpful for us). You could see the Notre Dame from the window. Small seating area and perfect cozy feel.

THE FOOD ------------------…read more+ Notre Dame Granny Smith Apple Confit - Was refreshing! I couldn't tell if this was a real apple or some fancy French creation made to look like one - that's how real it looked! The mousse and apple bits were cold & delicious and the chocolate shell was good, but not sure if it was worth the price at €7.5. + Pain Au Chocolat Cookie - Verrrry good chocolate chip cookie, chocolate croissant mashup. Only thing that we were missing was some good ol' milk! + Almond Croissant - Once again, delicious! Solid croissant and definitely a good grab and go candidate. = Citronnade - Was just OK. Lemonade that was on the watered down side, but was somewhat refreshing because I was dying of thirst. THE SERVICE ----------------------- - Employee who helped us with our order was friendly, but the cashier was a bit blah and not exactly the friendliest person, especially when we asked for extra utensils and napkins. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ - Smallish, tight interior that you can dine in at, but don't be surprised if the next table is sitting on top of you. + There are also 5 outdoor tables on the narrow street. - Entrance is tight too. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------------- + Even though this bakery is ranked highly on Tripadvisor, there was no crowd on the Monday morning that we swung by. Line moved superfast.

We were able to enjoy the food and each other. I ordered the special shrimp curry dish. The portion was just right, and paired well with a white wine. They make the most of the space here. It is a bustling restaurant for locals and visitors to enjoy.

We came here for some coffee on a rainy afternoon, but were pleasantly surprised to see escargot on the menu too and figured we'd give it a shot. Coffee wise we got the vienna coffee which had chocolate inside. It was good, with a nice espresso flavor and a huge dollop of whipped cream on top. A nice pick me up for the day. The escargot on the other hand, was so fantastic. They were served all cute in their little shells on a tray, and bubbling when we first got them. The green sauce that they came with was fantastic, and the butter was also a great addition! This made for such a flavorful little bite - escargots taste like little chewy clams to me, nothing strange at all. It also came with a few pieces of baguette to soak up the yummy sauce. Service was friendly and the inside of the restaurant has such a nice vibe. I would definitely recommend this spot!

When in Paris, you must go to a crêperie! Breizh Cafe is a popular crêperie with many locations…read morethroughout Paris. The cafe is a tight space, but since we came early, it wasn't busy. They have a clean bathroom upstairs, you'll just need to climb the staircase. We ordered the strawberry crepe and duck and asparagus galette bretonne. So there's actually a bit of a difference between a crepe and a galette. Crepes are usually sweet and made with wheat flour, while galettes are usually savory and made with buckwheat flour. Between the two, I enjoyed the strawberry crepe more, the strawberry jam made the crepe a delicious sweet treat. The flavors of the galette weren't as satisfying to my tastebuds, but I still enjoyed it. I would be interesting in trying other galette flavors next time. While my expectations weren't fully realized (I didn't LOVE it), I still enjoyed giving Breizh Cafe a try. We didn't visit enough crêperies on this trip, so it's something I look forward to doing the next time I'm back in Paris!

There is Cafe Breizh that always seems to have an hour wait and then Epicerie Breizh next door…read morewhere you are directed to order take out from - but I was able to sit and order crepes at the Epicierie without having to wait, so I'm not entirely sure the difference between the two. I think the Cafe has a larger menu with things besides crepes. I actually preferred the more casual vibe at the Epicerie and only wanted to get a crepe anyways, so it worked out better for me. I had a dessert crepe with bananas and ice cream (think bananas foster, Parisian style) and it was very reasonably priced and delicious.
