Angelina, Paris, France -- April 12…read more Our family of four with kids ages 9 and 10 stopped here for lunch after visiting the Louvre, drawn in by its reputation for having the best hot chocolate in the world. We were looking for a place to relax and refuel, and the experience felt a bit mixed overall. Arrival and First Impressions The space is elegant with classic Parisian charm. The line moved quickly, and we were seated with a great view of the dining room. It felt refined but still comfortable. The Highlights The famous hot chocolate lived up to expectations, thick, rich, and almost more like a dessert than a drink. We also had French onion soup and an éclair, both of which were very good. The pastries were clearly well made and thoughtfully prepared. The kids had chicken tenders, which they enjoyed, even though the tomato sauce was a bit different from what they expected. The Challenges The biggest drawback was the price. The meal felt expensive for what we ordered, coming in at €154 for a fairly simple lunch. Service felt slightly rushed as they moved tables along quickly. Final Thoughts We would likely return if we were nearby and specifically craving the hot chocolate again. It is a classic Paris stop and worth trying once, but the value may not justify going out of your way unless that signature experience is high on your list.

So Angelina's fine. For me, it's a bit hyped up. My sister, loved it. She even bought their…read moreprepackaged bottle of hot chocolate to take home. This hot chocolate is decadent. It really tastes like melted chocolate with a bit of milk mixed in to make it more drinkable. We went at a bit of an off time, late morning and it wasn't overly busy. We saw our server once and I couldn't recall who he was when it came time to get the bill. I asked a hostess walking by for our check and she told me to ask our server while walking away. We were able to flag another server down eventually but the whole process just took too long. The tables for four have chairs that don't quite tuck in causing for a bit awkward seating. If you like really thick hot chocolate, give it a try but otherwise ok to miss this one. Plenty of good hot chocolate throughout the city.

If you are a dessert type of person and love to eat some macarons why not give this place a shot? They have a wide range of flavors that I feel are unique and different. But I always stick with the same ones that I do enjoy which is anything with pistachio! Yum and delicious just a fair warning you have to eat these the day of or they will be old and hard! They are made daily and it is fresh so I would just suggest eating it when you buy it!

We popped into this charming little bakery near Westfield mall during our quick stop in Paris and…read moreoh my goodness, it did not disappoint! I grabbed a flaky pistachio pastry and a classic baguette for the road, and both were absolutely heavenly - buttery, fresh, and full of that perfect French flavor. My husband went for their ham and cheese croissant and couldn't stop raving about how crispy and gooey it was. The staff was super friendly even though our French is terrible, and everything felt warm and welcoming. We ended up taking a few extra treats back to the hotel because we just couldn't resist. If you're anywhere nearby, definitely make the detour - it's the real deal! We're already dreaming about going back.

They have fresh bread, sweet and savory pastries, quiche and sandwiches. The staff is very friendly and speaks English. There's lots of locals getting breakfast so I knew it was a good choice. I got two quiches, one Lorraine and one broccoli and salmon, on my first visit. I went back for a ham and cheese one the next day. They heat it up for you if you ask. It's in the microwave so the heat isn't very even but it's still good. The crust is crispy and like a pie crust. The inside is tender and pudding-like. Very flavorful on all the varieties. I really enjoyed it. The size is pretty big, definitely good for one person's breakfast. Definitely worth a visit.

The pain au chocolat and croissant were both exceptional--buttery, flaky, and incredibly fresh. Unlike some of Paris' more famous cafés, we didn't encounter any lines, which made the experience even more enjoyable. That said, this is a relatively small location, and I can easily see it getting busy with long queues during peak hours--perhaps we just got lucky with our timing. Service was quick and pleasant, and the relaxed atmosphere was a welcome respite after exploring Montmartre. A great spot for classic French pastries.

I had a mimosa also which was 20 euros (too much). There is a long wait for a table at Carette as it's become very popular thanks to Tik Tok and IG. We stood in light for about 30 minutes. The staff does a great job of keeping things moving as quickly as possible, but they can only do so much as people are relaxed while enjoying their hot chocolate and treats. We noticed several tables around us getting strawberries and cream which looked amanzing but the price of this was not listed anywhere in the menu so we opted to not be sticker shocked any further (a-hem 20 euros for one glass of mimosa). Ultimately, Carette offers delicious hot chocolate and it's great to say that you went there, but I can't imagine having hot chocolate in 90 degree farenheit weather outside, after standing in line for 30 minutes, but do you boo!

Upon entering the bakery, I was greeted by the aroma of butter and the sight of neat rows of fresh pastries. I really wanted to try one of everything, but I was determined to try the pain au chocolat, a personal favorite. Le Grenier a Pain's pain au chocolat was much larger and heartier than others I've tried yet retained its buttery-flakiness without feeling too heavy. I really enjoyed the pillowy texture of the pain au chocolat, which included a generous amount of chocolate folded inside. Paired with a cafe au lait, I was in heaven. The bakery is small yet inviting, and there was no seating indoors or outdoors. While I was hoping to enjoy my pastry on-the-go, it started pouring outside, so I was forced to huddle underneath the awning while I consumed my pain au chocolat. While I'd definitley come back for another pain au chocolat, I would also want to sample their savory pastries on my next visit.

Petit endroit pour déjeuner qui a été recommander vivement…read more Le droit est très petit, ce qui permet un ambiance plus relaxe et détendu. Situés dans un des passage de Paris, cela réduit encore plus le bruit. Il y a une petite terrasse à l'extérieur. Le service est très courtois et gentil. Le menu est tout de même petit. Plusieurs pâtisseries sont disponible dans le comptoir que l'ont peu amener ou manger sur place. J'ai prit le menu qui inclus des oeufs brouillé. Le tout viens avec un pain au chocolat ou croissant, chocolat chaud ou café, les oeufs et un pain. J'ai prit un extra pour le bacon. J'ai trouvé le pain sec et sans goût, une chance qu'il y avait beurre (congelé) et de la confiture qui était bonne. Le pain au chocolat était OK. Le chocolat chaud était un chocolat de machine lavazza donc rien d'exceptionnel. Les oeufs quant à oeufs sont un hit and miss. Ce ne sont pas des oeufs pour tous le monde. Je crois qu'ils mettent trop de lait ou de crème et cela les rends très liquides. C'était passable. Je dois dire que le plus surprenant fut le prix final. Disons que pour ce prix là, je m'attendais à beaucoup mieux. Pas un mauvais endroit certain, d'ailleurs les multiples pâtisseries semble vraiment bonne et j'en prendrais sûrement en passant devant. Mais je ne reprendrai pas le menu déjeuner, beaucoup trop cher pour ce que c'est.

We sat on the second floor but there is seating in the passage way as well. They do have wine in addition to coffee, hot chocolate, and tea. We tried the pistachio tart, the acrulier (like a fancier Ferrero rocher) and Kalingo (a chocolate cake). I had the gunpowder green tea while my sister had the hot chocolate. I honestly liked their hot chocolate more than the one at Angelina. It was rich but not chalky and the perfect amount of sweetness. The pistachio tart was the best one we've ever had and revived our spirits after a long day of walking. You pay downstairs and credit cards are accepted.
