Our AirBNB was right around the corner from this place near the Arc but we are glad we happened upon this place. Although this area is pretty close to the Champs-Elysees it is not nearly as touristy and you get way more of a local vibe. We were looking for a place to have some brunch and this was the perfect spot. Our server actually spoke perfect English and was incredibly nice. The prices here are very reasonable and they also have a full bar. The wife went with the quiche and it was absolutely massive, definitely big enough to share. It was delicious and light as well. I went with more of a lunch option and had the scallops. I opted for a salad instead of the potatoes gratin and it was a perfect delicious light lunch. Overall this was one of my favorite meals in Paris. The place is very casual with nice ambiance. The food was awesome and not expensive and lastly we had incredible service. I would highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

Eating in the Champs-Elysées area is a bit pricey and touristy, but after a long plane ride I was haaaangry and this was the closest place to snag a croque monsieur. The inside of the restaurant was a bit dark and stuffy, so we opted to sit outdoors on the much livelier patio. Plus, nothing beats sitting outside at a Parisian cafe while people watching and sipping a coffee. Speaking of the coffee, it was fantastic. A bit pricey at 4 euro for a small cup, but was still some of the best coffee that I had all trip. It was the perfect boost that I needed to kick start day 1 in Paris after a grueling red eye flight with a layover in Iceland. But enough about layovers in Iceland and on to the eats. The croque monsieur here was pretty damn perfect. A thick hearty piece of bread smothered in swiss cheese and ham. So simple, yet so tasty. The sandwich also came paired with fries and a small side salad. Once again, definitely pretty $$$ at something like 11 euros for the sandwich, but I knew that was what to expect in this area. If insane hunger wasn't calling, I probably would have preferred my first meal in Paris to be somewhere a little more authentic and a little less overpriced. But, this was still a solid place to grab a satisfying meal. And when that satisfying meal is smothered in cheese and taking place on an outdoor patio in Paris then you really can't go wrong. read more

Worst experience of rudeness ever. The waiter never even tried to be kind to us, and immediately started making fun of our language, yelling the words we spoke across the restaurant in front of everyone. Mimicking and laughing. We left right after this unpleasant episode. As we were walking out I said to the waiter that it was not very nice to make fun of people especially when they are trying to speak your own language back to you (I took 4years of French) and he wouldn't even look at me while I spoke. We will never, ever, try again. Disgusting. read more

Loved this little place wish I had tried it sooner. Was very close to Le Tsuba hotel where we were staying at. A large assortment of freshly baked pastries and desserts. My friend and I stopped here on our last day for breakfast. We ordered cappuccinos and was one of best they had a pretty large selection of coffee choices but since I didnt speak French played it safe with a cap but saw other beverages people were ordering and looked delightful. Gentlemen working in restaurant by himself was excellent and treated us very well as busy as he was. I ordered an omelet and my friend a Croc Madame we loved both dishes. Perfect portions and placement and price was very reasonable. We noticed they do get alot of regulars and we could see why. Loved the pink and black colors and light fixtures very cute. Looking forward to coming back to this place on my next trip to Paris as I plan on staying at same hotel. read more

A location close to the L'arc de Triomphe, lots of outside seating and lunch prix fix menu for 17€. We ordered a panache, iced tea, 'mini' flank steak with frites and beef tartar with fries & salad. Food came quickly and was good. For dessert we ordered tarte aux pommes, and (2) cafes. Total came to 45€. read more

I loved this eatery very much. They have added a quiche Lorraine et salade to their menu - it was excellent. The Paine chocolate was delicious as well. read more

Cake and scotch, what else can a gal ask for? Well, if we're honest, a gal can ask for all the chocolate cake in the world with all the best scotch to wash it down with. In the process, a gal can also request to never, and I mean never gain a pound. But, alas! One can't be greedy. A little about the place. It's located within walking distance of Arc De Triomphe. It has a nice fully stocked bar and all the pastries one can dream of. The cake was so moist and so tasty it made for an exhilarating experience. This place was great I highly recommend it. read more

Had breakfast here today, at the suggestion of our hotel concierge. The Good: * Amazingly friendly waiter. In Paris that makes all the difference. * Cute restaurant, love the decor. * Good location - close to the Arc. The Bad: * Brioche was dry and not tasty at all. * Baguette with jam was good but nothing to write home about. * Coffee was VERY bitter (maybe this is just a matter of preference?) * 2 sunny-side up eggs were fine * Prices...30 Euros for the above is reasonable I guess. But I could have eaten at Paul for much less and I know I would have enjoyed it more. The Bottom Line: The croissants look delicious so if that and strong coffee is your thing? Then a visit to Lacombe might be in order! read more

Cute friend bistro right around the corner from our hotel! The place had cute decor with mirrors on the ceiling, white, pink, and black decor. There's an outdoor patio and indoor seating as well. Great sandwiches, food, drinks and wine. We got some sandwiches after a day of eating and drinking we ordered some sandwiches and my husband got the a heavy foie burger that was flavorful too. Simple place for a nice long casual meal. They have a lot of desserts but we were too full! read more

My girlfriend and I shared a croque madame. The bread was flakey and crunchy. The dish was very savory. The cafe had ample outdoor seating.

Hey finally a place with proper happy hour! We came here last night as we were wondering around looking for somewhere to eat. We had to stop in for a drink after discovering from 6pm-9pm all drinks were half price, thus 4€ 50cl beers and margarita for 5€. This is the price drinks should be, I'm tired of every place charging 8€ a beer, so not cool. Anyways, Lacombe is located next to a bunch of restaruants and near the arc de triumph, so its easy to get to. I didn't eat here, just had a couple drinks, but knowing now they have half off I'll likely be back if I'm in the area :) read more

We went twice. First for lunch on a weekday, where we encountered a terrific and very friendly waitress. The croque misseur was crisp and tasty. The French onion soup was nothing special. We came back several days later for a Sunday night dinner last week, where the service was almost non-existent, and I dinner was poorly seasoned. So, a hit and a miss. Glad we went the 1st time, probably won't go back again. read more

The food was good,lasagna and tartar were excellent but the service was bad,we asked to replace French fries on vegetables,the waiter said no problem but we got it with French fries,the waiter didn't listen to us,plus I could not pay by my credit cards,their terminal didn't work read more

Not sure how the rest of their food is, but you cannot miss for brunch. Great menu including a prefix brunch with enough food to feed an army and its all really good. Seriously for 24 euros, a basket of delicious fresh breads and pastry, OJ, Coffee, eggs benedict, salad, and pancakes-all fresh and delicious. My wife and I also got a bottle of champagne and made mimosas which are the staple of any good brunch! Server was really nice which always helps! I would not be surprised if we end up there tomorrow. read more

We've been here twice during our Paris holiday for breakfast. We tasted a variety of things. Croissants, pain au chocolat, pin aux raisins and fresh juices or teas. All were really tasty and the service was very nice. The place seemed to be a family owned place which made it much more special. The language was no barrier as when instruggled to say something in French the lovely lady switched smoothly to English so i could finish my order. Will definitely visit next time when I'm in Paris. read more

My sister had the omelet she didn't enjoy but I thought it was very tasty. It was juicy and cheesy. It came with a side salad and fries. I had the croque grante dame. It was okay but dry. The bread was good. It came with a side salad and fries. I ordered the French onion soup which I really enjoyed. It was a large portion and we couldn't finish it. The cheese cake had a bitter flavor on the top maybe a raspberry but the cake was delicious. I would recommend this spot. read more

We came here after sight-seeing all day, and came based off of food pictures and the fact that we'd not yet had French onion soup. We probably should have stuck with Champs Elysee but it was that odd time of day when a lot of places are only serving drinks, and according to Yelp this place had decent food served all day. The inside of this place was cute and there was ample outdoor seating. We were there at around 3:30pm on a Sunday. There were very few people and we sat outside. Service was fine, but I forgot to take pictures of the extensive menu, and I am SO disappointed in myself. How am I even a Yelper?? There were no good menu photos on here and I forgot to take them before the menu was taken away from us and since we were on a time crunch I didn't ask for it back. UGH. Failure. Anyhow we got the salmon lasagna and the onion soup. Both were pretty tasty and the portions VERY large. Dale LOVED the salmon lasagna. I thought it was good but I didn't love it as much as he did. It looked incredible with the cheese all bubbled on top, and there was plenty of delicious salmon in it. My French onion soup looked impressive in its bowl and came with a side salad. It had croutons on top with cheese, extra of the "croutons" (slices of super crispy baguette or some such bread) on the side. The soup itself was almost a slightly creamy onion soup with chunks of onion. I really would have loved to have way more cheese, as the flavor of it in the soup was awesome. Once the cheese was gone I didn't think it was as tasty; it almost didn't have enough flavor but I don't add salt to my food. The croutons on top were really hard to eat as they were pretty tough even floating in the soup, and the ones that came on the side were super hard and ended up the same way once I soaked them. I definitely couldn't finish the soup because there was so much. Dale struggled to finish the salmon lasagna. The desserts they offered probably come from a nearby boulangerie but we were both too stuffed to try any even though they looked amazing. Bathrooms downstairs were clean and nice. read more

My husband and I split the chicken sandwich, soup of the day which was vegetable soup, and espressos. The food was delicious, service was great, and the serving sizes were very filling. We left full and satisfied and we'll be back to try some of the amazing deserts that had :) Recommendations: -Chicken sandwich: hearty and came with a small dish of French fries and salad. -Vegetable soup: purée of vegetables with a sage flavor that was so comforting for a cold winter day that came with tasty croutons and a roll. -espresso: delicious, strong, full bodied read more

If you find yourself in the Champs Elysees area, just past all the craziness, this is a nice place to have a bite to eat and a glass of wine at a reasonable price. The croque gentillome was one the best we had in Paris. They also have a nice selection of wines--I had the sancerre blanc for 6 euro. Seems like a lot of locals were there for brunch. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to return, but if I was in the neighborhood on a weekend, I would love to try their brunch menu. read more

Down to the earth cafe. We dropped by for breakfast because the cafe was one block away fro our hotel. Would recommend this place. read more

Lacombe - Breakfast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Paris, 75

I'm in Paris for two months doing an exchange program and this place has become my favorite breakfast spot. Initially it was hard to find places near me that served eggs so when i found this place I was excited. I've gotten the omelette and the coffee there and they're both delicious. I highly highly recommend this place for breakfast/brunch, fresh tasty egg dishes with delicious coffee. The decor is super cute as well. The only downside is the wifi, as a visitor, I depend heavily on restaurants with wifi and this place has but it never works. read more

Wow, I should have found this place earlier during my trip to Paris. On a corner, just a stonesthrow away from the Arc de Triomphe, there is Maison Lacombe. A small patisserie and café with a very cosy athmosphere inside and nice Jazzy lounge music to wake up to on a lazy sunday. The staff is very friendly and can speak English, which comes in handy if your French is bad like mine is. Go for the brunch menu, it will fill you up for the day! read more

I came here with a friend for breakfast/ brunch. She had a croissant and coffee, while I ordered a hot chocolate and the chicken club sandwich with fries and salad. The hot chocolate was out of this world and the sandwich was excellent. My friend ordered two croissants because they were so good. Nice atmosphere but the the kitchen doesn't open until 10 am so no chance of hot food until then! read more

i love lacombe! there are not a lot of cool cafes in the area that have great ambiance and also not $$$. therefore, lacombe is my go-to cafe. nice terrace, relaxing jazzy playlist, fun pink flower branding, nice waiters, yummy food (scallop ravioli, croissants, quiches, omelets.....) and free wifi. what could be better! no snooty attitudes here, just come as you are and enjoy. i will miss this cafe when i leave. read more

Stopped in here a few times as it was recommended by a local-we were staying at a near by apartment during our time in Paris. It is a nice place-not amazing but the staff is great, especially nice with our attempt at French and their good English! The place next door is big-kind of overwhelming looking which why we liked this place. It was cool and raining when we visited so we had the French Onion Soup, lol. Lunch for 2 (Coca cola light, 2 FO soup, a sandwich, and a hamburger -don't judge me!) came to approx 50 Euro. Ouch. We had been in Spain where everything was less expensive! read more

Wow! Beautifully done food, service and decor. Best croissant I've had in Paris and fantastic brunch.

Everything was good. The girl was busy, so we felt bad for her, but there was a lot of food for what you paid. We'd definitely go back!

Cinq étoiles ? Pourquoi ? Maison Lacombe est supérieure à la moyenne, c'est vrai, mais le meilleur ? Mais non. Et pourtant, c'est un café wifi vrai, rare à Paris un endroit où on peut travailler qui n'est pas Starbucks (beurk). En outre, les serveuses sont sympas, gentilles à mon teckel (Emily), et les gâteaux à la maison sont simples et délicieux. Le meilleur bureau à Paris. Maison Lacombe may not very good coffee (it's Paris),or even the best food, but it's getting five stars. Why? Everyone was very sweet, they like dogs (not all places do), and most important of all, it's an actual wifi cafe in Paris. One must understand how rare this is, outside of (blecch) Starbucks, a place to do work where it doesn't seem out of place. And for my writing ritual (espresso, cake, work), it's perfect as the homemade cakes, though not as fancy as Hugo + Victor or Pâtisserie Des Rêves, are delicious, subtle and solid. I went way out of my way to go there each day, and highly recommend. read more

Found this place on yelp with my wife and we are sooooo glad yelp exist, without it, we definitely would've missed out on this place. The setting is very nice, you can eat outside or inside, the staff was very friendly and attentive to our order. My wife got the chocolate milkshake and I got a cafe frape, both of which were amazing. The prices for the sandwiches were a bit more expensive than I thought, so we just got one club saumon sandwich and we realized why. It came with a small serving of a salad and some good ole french fries. The coup de grace was the sandwich, which hit the spot, it was made to perfection; from the cucumber, cottage cheese, and other ingredients which surprisingly complimented the salmon when I took my first bite. The only reason why I was skeptical at first was because of the level of rawness the salmon was. I'm pretty sure it was either lightly toasted or lightly smoked because it was a good shade of pink. Unless you're a salmon addict like I am, I would try a different sandwich. read more
