    Cute spot but definitely a tourist trap. We paid 50 euros for a burger, fries and 2 drinks. Most people just took a photo outside with the flowers. We were tired and hungry so got a table and had a light snack. Servers were very nice and the interior is too cute!!! Prices seem to be on the higher side for what you get.

    This review is just for drinks here. We only came here because Mink found them on social media and wanted to take photos with their pink background. They are extremely easy to find once you get out of the Metro. Just look and you'll see a lot of pink flowers. When we first got there, we were told we couldn't sit in the front 3 tables because they seat people in sets and that set is for 6 people. It is probably the best seats for photos of the place if you wanted to have the pink flowers in the background. We thought that was odd because it was super slow and early morning. No one was really there. We told them we were going to just grab drinks and were also there for photos. Finally they let us sit there and we ordered Mink a Cappuccino and I got a glass of Champagne. After we got some photos, we sat there to enjoy the start to the day. Customer service did improve the longer we stayed but our initial impression of the place wasn't great due to how we were treated. Overall, still great spot for a social media post.

    No, I refuse to believe people have less than a five star experience dining and/or drinking La Favorite. La Favorite was literally just that, our favorite. We came here three nights in a row during our stay in Paris. Our hotel was across the street, but even if it was a ways away, we would have made the trip. The first night we stopped in because we were starving after a long day of travel and the (very instagrammable) decor caught our eye. The second night we went back because we wanted to grab a drink before heading back to the hotel and we really enjoyed their drinks the previous night. Then we went back a third time...we were basically regulars by that point. I know, Paris has so many great places, why go to the same place multiple times? I guess this shows you how much we enjoyed the atmosphere, food, and drinks. The waitstaff were also super nice and surprised our friend with a special drink sparkler on his birthday. For food, I really liked their Niçoise salad and charcuterie plate. During our visits, we tried a bunch (my liver says, "too many") of their cocktails, which were all amazing. I had a few favorites, but all the spritzes were delightful and my friends loved their mojitos.

    Latte with chocolate, sugars, separate milk with foam. Just the right size sipping glasses of H2O.

    Awesome presentation of custom Latte (See photo). Pretty good service. Small wait to order; short wait for food delivery. Choice of sunny or shady seating. Absence of napkins noted at all tables.

    I stopped at La Favorite for breakfast on my birthday entirely because the restaurant was so cute. With pink flowers cascading everywhere and multicolored chairs, I needed to be a part. I ordered an orange juice (fresh squeezed and divine), truffle eggs, and coffee with cream. The eggs were good - sort of scrambled with truffle shavings. The coffee was great. I saw a mother and daughter order the avocado toast among other things, and I was a bit jealous. It was much larger than I what I ordered, and it came with a salad. If there's a next time, I'm ordering that! I'm giving this place four stars out of five because it was good if a little expensive, and it seemed they had only one server on staff for all of breakfast, making service a little slow. Still, all told it was very good.

    Tik Tok find! Is it worth the hype not really sure but the spicy latte was a win and the Pietre beer suggested I can't complain. Nice spot to people gave. Service was ok can't complain maybe don't explain the bill in a condescending manner but that was just my take. Ambiance is very chill vibe is cool can't complain very casual.

    Chocolat chaud (hot chocolate)!

    This place is super-cute, which is pretty good, considering the interior is made basically with white bathroom tiling! At least, that's what I thought when I saw it. There's something about the decor that gives it a nice feel, and when I was there, it seemed like mostly locals, or at least, European/French tourists. Can't judge the food as I only stopped by for bread and hot chocolate. That said, the bread is very good and the hot chocolate is the dark, rich, thick kind of hot chocolate, not the watery, sugary type that some places serve. Bathrooms: Clean, decent, and reasonably spacious.

    Super popular neighborhood brunch spot. We stopped around 2pm on a Sunday and found the place packed, mostly with locals enjoying mimosas. My friend opted for a pizza, which is really more of a long flatbread - she really enjoyed it and it was quite a large serving. I opted for soft boiled eggs which arrived with toast sticks - perfect for dipping in the delicious runny yolks. Service is friendly, but harried. Prices are perhaps a bit higher than they should be, but it's the Marais. We walked by many, many times on our trip and it was always busy so that tells you something.

    Fancy place with great desserts - good place to socialize, not such a good place to work. Still and all, decent absinthe presentation.

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.

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 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!

I had a dessert crepe with bananas and ice cream (think bananas foster, Parisian style) and it was very reasonably priced and delicious.
