Great coffee and pastries too! Bought a bag of beans and am looking forward to trying them at home. Good amount of seating too. read more

KB has great outdoor seating to relax, get off your feet, and take in the scenery while sipping on coffee. We had been out and about for most of the day and just snapped a pic of Moulin Rouge when we needed a break. Their outdoor space is vast, fairly comfortable, and we grabbed a table against the wall to lean against. I ordered a tea while the hubby ordered a latte. I ordered the seasonal tea which had notes of fruits and flowers which gave it a bright and sweet taste. The hubby's latte was good but was very milk forward and couldn't taste the espresso whatsoever. read more

Another great cafe in a great location. Stopped here for breakfast and had the granola and a cappuccino. Mood is vibe and chill. A great place to work if you don't need to make calls. Maybe a little small so expect share tables. But honestly, you're in Paris, that's part of the charm read more

One of the great things about knowing somebody who lived in Paris, especially a Melburnian, you can pretty much find out where the good coffee shops are. This was one of them that he recommended, and yeah, I'll certainly give this place the thumbs up. Okay, it's not hugely close to a station, but it is located in a lovely area, and like a lot of these parts of Paris, it is quite a charm to wander through it. Oh, and the plaza in which it is located is quite charming as well. I almost forgot, they do a pretty decent coffee as well, though you probably already worked that one out. read more

Aside from it always being busy, this place has really good coffee both to order and a wide selection of beans for purchase.

Amazing food and top notch coffee. As good as any I've had in the world. I would make a trip across Paris for this place. The food and coffee is that good read more

This is the closest thing I could find to a coffee shop in the USA and it was great. There's plenty of people watching to be done and their V60 pour and Aeropress are both great. It's hipster. You'll see people on their laptops, people on dates, people having breakfast...really all kinds of people and it's wonderful. The outside patio is so great especially in this autumn weather in Paris. Wi-Fi signal is great for those who need to dial in or work for a bit. It's an experience and pretty great coffee too. I'd recommend it! Wish I found it earlier in my trip to Paris. read more

Coffee shop on the corner of a busy street in the little park area. Plenty of cozy outdoor and communal indoor seating. They had cascara which I quite enjoyed. Prices seem on the higher end but did not take away from their popularity. They also offer many baked goods and pastries for you to enjoy with your coffee or tea. It's fun to sit at the corner and people watch the diverse crowd that walks by. read more

Lovely spot with healthy options and outdoor seating under sycamore trees just a hope and a skip from Sacré Coeur. If you fancy a grain bowl or fresh pressed fruit juice, this is your place. read more

I may be a bit of a coffee snob. Pinkies up! This place is worth the 22 minutes on two trains and 6 minute walk commute from my hotel. An absolutely must if you value great coffee! Location, location, location. So easy to get to from a few train stations and plenty of seating, even tho it's always busy. I usually get a double espresso, the crema hits my lips and my tastebuds sing when that heavenly elixir pours in. The service is quick and always pleasant. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, I tried a latte. Saying I love this spot is an understatement. read more

Espresso is king in Europe. Unless you completely give up and go to a Starbucks while abroad, your chances of finding a drip coffee are slim to none. However, KB Café is a place you can get your hands on an assortment of different coffee drinks, including a drip coffee. Aussie coffee shops are ubiquitous institutions in New York, but looks like we're not alone as Paris has their own near Pigalle as well. I stopped by KB every day I was on vacation, and sometimes even several times per day. It's a cramped space, but they do a good job moving people through the line. They do everything you could want from flat whites to espresso shots and most things in between. And unlike a lot of other Parisian cafes where milk is all they carry, there are a lot of alternative milks here like almond and oat. If you choose to stay and sip your drink, they have a nice outdoor patio to burn a few moments people watching and slowing down. But if takeaway is more your speed, that's an option as well. read more

I enjoyed this coffee spot. It's nice, cosy, tiny and is a treasure for true brew coffee fans. I have ordered aero presses on Burundi and Ethiopia coffee. Really worth to be visited. read more

The BEST café in Paris. When I am on my yearly visit to Paris, I come her almost everyday to produce music and drink an iced latte. There are many musicians and artists who come here and it's nice to meet people like that. The staff is very friendly and they all know me by name. read more

Perfect place for a caffeine intake in Montmartre. I tried their cappuccino w a single shot espresso every day when I was in Paris (4days) and even if the prices were on the premium side (15 eur 2 coffees and 2 scones), the quality of the coffee and the service was all worth having coffee to bed everyday. You can take it to go or stay in, there are some pastry options in the house. The neighborhood is gorgeous. Ah they have wifi only during the week, weekends are made for conversation read more

One of the few places where espresso & co. taste like espresso & co. in Paris, at least according to my samplings. Enjoyed a good flat white and savored a good carrot cake. I find the pastries (good but not as good as those offered by the boulangeries in Paris) and food in general slightly overpriced. Well-located close to the Sacré-Coeur. read more

What Kooka Boora has going for it is is rarity. Even though the options have multiplied within the recent past, it's still a headache finding a relaxed Wifi-connected spot with great coffee in Paris. Kooka Boora is located in a prime spot on the corner of the rue Condorcet with a wraparound terrace that's perfecto when the sun's out. While the coffee is killer (get the latte!) and the baked goods divine (you musn't miss the scone!) the seating is a bit cramped and the communal wood tables, which are meant to be modular, move while you type, which can be problematic when you've got three people tapping away at the same table. If Kooka Boora could solve the seating issue and make the place just a wee more comfortable then it would definitely be a 5-star establishment. Considering the space constrictions I don't think a makeover is on the immediate horizon, but there's no crime in asking! read more

Funny how life turns out, I've actually been here already 3 years ago visiting the "Le Web" conference. I am happy to confirm, that this space is still great, including the coffee and the location. Anyhow, you could say it is a bit pricy: my caffe latte turned out to be a 4,00€ debt on my credit card, so cheap is definitely something else, but it's still within the boundaries of acceptable coffee pricing. Anyhow, music is great, location pretty nice with seating ranging from quiet comfortable benches up to chairs. I can warmly recommend it as a quiet place to work on your notebook, so go ahead and give it a try if you are in need of wifi and coffee. read more

KB Café Shop - It's a shame that this to go cup ended up covered:( - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Paris, 75

One of my favorite cafés to visit when I need to get work done. Plenty of outdoor seating, and a good amount of indoor spots for you and your laptop, though it does get pretty crowded. Free wifi, lots of power outlets, and great music, which is always a plus. As for the food, I've only ordered the plain scone (3.50€) so far, and I would definitely get it again. They warm it up for you and serve it with jam and butter for a snack that reminds you of home. Crispy coating around a soft inside that made my day about 5 times better. My friend got a fresh-pressed juice (you can choose your own combination for around 6€) of lemon, ginger, and apple, and she seemed pretty ecstatic about it. Highly recommend! read more

They have an extensive menu of manual brew options: v60, aeropress, kalita, etc. I travelled across the city to try it, and was refused service. I was given a flat "no" when trying to order v60. They were "too busy". It would take "too long". What is it with French shops and refusing service? This is not an isolated phenomenon since I've been here. So basically I wasted time and money to travel to a place, order something off their menu, and be refused coffee. From a coffee shop. Coffee that's on their menu. But wait, is it a coffee shop, or a brunch place? I can't quite decide. Cafe Coutume is decidedly both, much busier, but will still sling excellent pourovers with a smile. If you aren't up to the task of (gasp) managing a latte and a pourover at the same time, why are you a barista? Furthermore, if you don't serve manual brews on weekends, why not be up front about it? We lost 2 hours of our morning because the staff was too lazy to make a pourover that shouldn't take more than 5-6 minutes. Seriously, if they can't get the job done in that timeframe with that expensive equipment (I can do it with my handgrinder, they have $1000+ electric grinder) than they have no business offering pourovers. Or they are being inefficient with it. Also, from reviews below, it sounds like they are serving underextracted coffee. Coffee that is unpleasantly sour, rather than acidic. That's a waste of your money, just as this was an epic waste of my time. I say avoid. Go to Strada, Ob La Di, Fringe, or Coutume Cafe instead. read more

Classy, cute and casual. Kooka Boora (KB) is one of my favorite coffeeshops I've visited throughout my Europe travels. I love the atmosphere -- it's a great place to read, relax, or do some casual people watching. Everyone at the coffeeshop seems to have a different story and reason for stopping by...it ranges from Paris locals to tourists (like me). It is visible that I cannot say a single word in French, but despite this...the workers are extremely friendly and provide great service :) It's wonderful to be finally treated like a local in a foreign place. I've been trying flat whites in a bunch of coffeeshops and this place, by far has one of the best ones I've ever tried. I like that it isn't too milky and you can really get the hint of the expresso!! A lot of people seem to also be into their food, such as: sandwiches, granola, pastries, etc. I got the scone that comes with butter and jam. It is SCONE PERFECTION and not dry at all. I also saw that the carrot cake is really popular and that'll probably be my round two snack in a bit. Just can't get enough of their tasty snacks! Until then...I'm completely KOOKA CRAZY for this place!! read more

Delicious coffee (with soy milk options!!!!), friendly service, sweets and wifi in a cute setting. This is the Paris cafe I have been looking and waiting for! Now if only the supply could keep up with the demand: on a recent Saturday afternoon there was no savory food left and very little of anything else, including vegetables and fruits for fresh juices. Nevertheless, every arrondissement needs a cafe like this. read more

Amazing Australian coffee shop in Paris. I went a mile out of my way to give it a shot and it was worth it. Great ambiance and design inside. Filtered/drip coffee is individually prepared which makes it great. Try to flat white if you want an espresso drink as it is an Australian take on things. read more

Cute little corner cafe with indoor outdoor seating. Child friendly. But the best part is these guys know how to make a banging coffee. Long blacks, espresso, flat whites, you name it and they'll make it. And yes, they have soy milk. And yes, they speak English. Excellent service too. read more

Cute and cozy cafe that put me in the mind of cafes in Berlin. They played old school music and there were nice views of Montmartre from the windows. Very cool atmosphere. I had the carrot cake which was quite good but different from other versions I've had. This one was full of different kinds of nuts which was a nice surprise. The cappuccino was decent but not the best one I've had in Paris. It was a tad expensive at 8,00 euros for the capp and cake, but I suppose that's on par with Paris. All in all I would definitely suggest it if you need a place to hang out when visiting Sacre Coeur which you can see as soon as you walk out of the cafe. read more

Good location for some people watching and few minutes away from the Sacré Coeur. They are having some Has Bean and some Five elephants coffee beans. They propose their own coffee blend (roasted in house) for the espresso. Ordered an iced Coffee that was served after 10 minutes, which was too long. The coffee wasn't the best I had in Paris. read more

Definitely a great latte - notes of caramel and not a hint of bitter. And they are definitely of adequate size. Lots of outdoor tables but inside can be crowded when the weather is cold. Only cakes for breakfast, but a larger assortment of food at lunch. Staff speaks English and menus are available in English. They accept credit cards. Order at the counter then take a seat. read more

This place has amazing coffee and has a fantastic ambiance. We came here because of the great reviews about this place. The place is very packed but seats cleared out fast for us. There's enough room to fit a lot of people and even groups of friends. They even have seating outside as well. However they didn't have a large dessert/sandwich selection when we came which was what I was mostly looking forward to have with the coffee. If you don't know what to order, the simple black coffee is good and so is their cafe au lait macchiato for milk lovers. read more

KB is the real deal! It can be difficult finding really great coffee in Paris, but they know what's up. I had a picolo (like a cortado) and it was perfect. We hung out inside for bit, small but very chill. They have all sorts of food items here and juice, too! I would come back for sure. Highly recommended! read more

Grest place in South Pigalle. French style breakfast and homemade juices. Have a wide range of great coffee, they make v60, Aeropress and espresso based coffes with milk. No wifi in the weekend. A lot of locals goes here so that's a good indication. Outdoors and indoors seating. Great place for a breakfast and lovely coffee read more

This place is absolutely charming. The staff is accommodating to my annoying American accent, they have awesome coffee and some of the fastest free wifi in Paris. I could hang out here all day.

The place is cosy, cool atmosphere, wifi works perfectly. Coffees aren't really good though. I had a chai latte and my friends a Latte. None of them were good. Just ok. In the other hand, I took a white chocolate cookie and it was good :) I could definitely go back but not for the coffee just for the atmosphere. read more

I came to KB's with huge expectations and was sadly let down. I ordered a soy latte and a scone which came to an expensive 8€... Which if it were perfect I wouldn't mind paying... But the latte was too weak and the scone was extremely salty and too crumbly.. The foam of the latte was also kind of lumpy... I'm not sure if its the foaming technique the barista used or whether the milk was over frothed... Compared to the other "Australian style" cafes around, this place was my least favourite... In saying that, the server was nice and overall the coffee was better than others in Paris... Just definitely not to Australian standards. Maybe they were just having an off day? read more

I have had a LOT of espresso in my life but this is by far the best cafe I have ever been to. I ordered the mocaccino and was almost brought to tears. You can really taste the quality of the beans and I'm pretty sure angels made the chocolate that they use! I tried ordering in my terrible french and the barista was very cool and nice and didn't seem to mind my poor attempt. He slipped into English and displayed the best customer service I've experienced so far in Paris. The combination of KB cafe's excellent employees and incredible coffee allows them a 5-star review. I will miss this place dearly when I return to the states but for now, I will be going here every morning! read more
