Malabar - Charcuterie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Paris, 75

Extremely cozy vibes w lights and very home-y decor. Like a cozy little cottage. The menu is super American/English friendly with it being one of the only places w acai bowls, avocado toast and bagels!! I saw someone eating a bagel and definitely don't expert your bigger American bagels, but more light sandwich. The salmon avocado toast was sooooooo good and it has pomegranate which I thought was weird but actually so yummy. Definitely pricier here but great convenience location. Would reccomend read more

Came here for breakfast & was not disappointed - I got the salmon bagel with avocado and cream cheese... so good. I was surprised it came with a side of fries, but those were very good as well. The service was friendly and didn't take too long, and the atmosphere was cozy and comfortable too. Sadly I didn't have enough time to visit this place more than once while I was visiting Paris, but I would have liked to. So I can't say much on the other food there, but all the food the people around me ordered looked super delicious as well. read more

Malabar - Salmon & avocado bagel, and turkey bagel with fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Paris, 75

Amazing atmosphere! Super attentive staff. The food is just heavenly. We ordered seafood board, quinoa salad, and salmon tartar.

Great spot near-ish to the Eiffel Tower and away from the tourist cafes in the area immediately surrounding. The food was excellent.

Already a great start thanks to my friends at Malabar! We JUST got to Paris! The ride from the airport to our place was long, a lot of stop and go due to construction. So, the Mrs. isn't feeling the greatest. I told her I'll run out and grab something small to put on your stomach. Right on the corner is the Malabar. Why not? I go inside and am informed that the kitchen doesn't open for half an hour. But, if you want a croissant or something that's fine. In the most broken French I say I just need something for my wife. The young lady so NO! We will make you ANYTHING you want. You want an omelette or something. I tell her the croissant and cafe are fine. She insists that they will do anything I need. I tell her I'll take the croissants and cafes BUT I will see them for lunch when we head to do some sightseeing. The croissants were light, fluffy and buttery and the cafe was spot on. This review is less about the food this time, but all about the service. This IS why I'll be posting again because we will go again. Thanks Malabar for starting this trip off right! ~III read more

There's a scene in the Steve Martin version of The Pink Panther where he's given an American cheeseburger and turns his nose up at it, but as soon as he takes a bite he's immediately in raptures and ends up (hilariously) getting arrested at the airport for trying to smuggle cheeseburgers stuffed in his pockets. Because of that scene I had the impression that the French were not into burgers, so imagine my surprise when I found myself in a similar situation at Malabar. I can't remember what exactly my burger had on it but I inhaled it and wanted to lick the plate clean. We dilly-dallied on leaving the hotel and ended up getting there around 10, fortunately they were still serving. It was really cute and cozy inside but felt way too warm for me so we opted to sit at one of the small tables outside, which was nice because they had heat lamps right above. Service was a little slow but the waiter was super nice. There was also a great cocktail list. We'll definitely stop by next time we're in Paris! read more

We found this gem because it was close to our hotel room. It was our first cafe in Paris and it did not disappoint. We stopped in for breakfast and had croissants, baguettes and espresso. It was beyond words. The staff knew enough English to help us along and we're super friendly. We liked this place so much we decided to go back for drinks and again service was really great. They did a cheese and meat plate for us( it wasn't on the menu but they made it for us anyway). It was fantastic!!!! We left Paris and we just loved this place. We highly recommend it. read more

Don't come here. I ordered a chicken burger and half way through I noticed the meat was raw so I called the waiter and they told me that it's not raw and it's just the type of chicken they use. I explained to them and showed them that the meat was clearly raw but the waiter refused to accept it and just said I can't explain it because my English is bad. Worst service ever and the food is awful. The chicken was bland, the fries were soggy and unseasoned, the avocado was not fresh, the burger bun was worse than a fast food restaurant and I had to pay €20 for a raw chicken burger. If I could give this place zero stars I would. read more

Malabar - Raw chicken! Cooked chicken on the fork. You can clearly see the difference in colour and texture. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Paris, 75

Serving up light fare salad; savoury tartes with side salad and fries for lunch. Service is rest - friendly and causal. My salad was a little plain otherwise it is a nice bistro on Rue Saint Dominique. read more

Best quiche we've found in Paris. Friendly service and reasonable prices. Have tried both breakfast and dinner here. More of a local than tourist place, but close to the Eiffel Tower and other special locations. Good English skills. read more

What's with Parisian restaurants being hostile to Americans while serving mediocre American food? I ordered the only non-American item, beef tartare, which was served as warm, raw meat that they use for the burgers along with cold fries. My boyfriend got sick from the salmon tartare. Another review pointed out that there is no kitchen, just a toaster situation at the bar. I saw my prepared "tartare" sit on the bar counter for over 15 minutes before we were ready for the second course. read more

Was wonderfully Parisian. Felt dim and comfortable and was a great place to duck in out of the cold. The brunch was good. The chicken Caesar was mild, so avoid if you like a more pungent dish. Service was good and the space was super cozy. read more

A friend and I stumbled upon Malabar and our intent was a small breakfast with coffee, but we stayed and chatted for hours and eventually ended up eating lunch too! The daily special was on point. If you're looking for that cute Paris cafe to spend hours in, then Malabar is for you. read more

Get the "tequila, what else" mug. Get the berries for breakfast. Get the octopus salad for starters. Enjoy the style of it all. This bar is newly opened and as a neighbor I want them to stay. Nice team working there too. read more

Food was decent and ambiance was very cool in a very charming neighborhood. However, the arrogant waiter who repeatedly ignored our request for a check and sassed our limited ability to converse in native tongue lived up to the arrogant French stereotype and ruined the evening for us. read more

Nice central bar/restaurant with good salads and coffee items. It is definitely an alternative in the area, but there are a lot of restaurants around as well. read more

I came here for a coffee date because I live very near to it. I ordered the hot chcolate and was given a cup of milk and a giant tin of cocoa powder. You're going to charge me 5€ for hot chcolate that I have to make myself? I could have gone to Franprix across the street and spent half that. Then the table behind us had to move so they could empty the trash cans 6 inches from them. The smell really was quite lovely. I thought about ordering food but the "kitchen" is a little area next to the bar that's about 1m2. It had a burner and a toaster oven. I refuse to spend 20€ on a burger from a toaster oven. Based on the look of the "kitchen" I would not suggest any kind of food that goes beyond slices of cheese and cold cuts. read more

Loved this little bar, most hipster in the area. Didn't try the food for dinner but had the cheese board and was delicious. Nice choice of cocktails, wine is lovely, beer slightly overpriced. Like the atmosphere. Staff are lovely. read more

Malabar - Cheeseboard - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Paris, 75

Avoid. This is clearly a tourist rip-off joint - service ignorant and indifferent. Main course of chèvre chaud was ok but lettuce had a crunchy unwashed texture. For dessert we ordered a tiramisu which was rancid (sour mascarpone), so we had one bite and sent it back. Proprietor continued to charge us the 8.50€ for it, shouting across the restaurant in French, "You ordered it, so you have to pay for it". He refused to take it off the bill despite the fact that it had gone rotten. Disgusting service. read more

Our 1st meal in Paris. We both had cheeseburgers with fries. It was great. Its a small chic restaurant on the corner.

We found this place after an evening spent wandering around the 7eme arrondissement and realizing we should eat before it got late. The menu looked about right in terms of price and selection, and so we went in. The staff was patient with my beginner's French and maintained that European balance of attention while not hovering over the table every few minutes - for Americans, being left alone takes some getting used to, but it's nice once you adapt. We ordered the cheese plate and the charcuterie plate, which were (in accordance with the menu) generous enough to share and which each had some interesting selections. The beer selection was minimal (I have heard that France, and especially Paris, is undergoing a beer renaissance but I saw almost no evidence of it), and the wine list looked decent though I am not much of a wine drinker so take that with a grain of salt. The coffee was on par in terms of price, quality and serving size, which I feel is important to mention after having found some cafes which would charge 5 euro for a demitasse of espresso. read more

This is a nice restaurant/coffee shop near the Eiffel Tower. We had coffee and the cheese platter. Cheese in France is so tasty so that was our go to meal lol. The service here is nice and they have a nice selection of dishes. read more

Great atmosphere. Good for intimate dinners. Menu is simple. Had dinner here with a few vacationers. All I can say is we had a great time.

Extremely mediocre. Do not order the entrecôte steak, it was just gristle and fat topped with bernaise sauce. The service was also poor and slow. The tables were too cramped read more

Great ambiance. Delicious quiche and best brunch I've in Paris in a while. Greg is the best ask for him!

Great cafe !! Loved my grilled shrimp. It comes with rice but I switched to mixed greens and it was delicious. The wine list isn't so great but I would go back for the food read more

This place has great ambiance and an awesome cocktail menu. We stopped in for a few drinks at the bar before dinner elsewhere and really enjoyed our time there. It's intimate but upbeat with a cool vibe. Nice little neighborhood spot. The bartender was fun to watch as he mixed drinks. Very small with only a handful of seats at the bar, which is exactly what we were looking for. read more

Great spot for lunch. Convenient but gets you away from the crowds. Food and service were perfect for lunch.

Slipped into this place on a whim while wandering the streets of Paris. Cozy, intimate atmosphere. AMAZINGLY generous cheese plate with lots of great variety. read more

1st cafe/bar meal in Paris and so far the best. My wife and I split the caprese salad (which she claims is the best she's ever had and it's hard to disagree!), sliders with frites and a carafe of red wine. We enjoyed every bite of the food and sip of the wine. The atmosphere was great in this small corner cafe along with service. We will be stopping by again before we leave! read more
