We stopped by the flagship Rue de Rivoli location right by Place de la Concorde for breakfast. We arrived right around 9:30 AM and walked straight in with zero wait. Talk about great timing, by the time we sat down and looked outside, a huge line had already wrapped down the sidewalk. The decor is beautiful and timeless, pure classic French elegance with the chandeliers, mirrors, and gilded details. We were seated upstairs on the second floor, which gave us a lovely, relaxed vantage point away from the entrance rush. We ordered their breakfast set, which came loaded with two flaky croissants, fresh baguette with butter and jams, two eggs Benedict, fresh juice, and, of course, their legendary chocolat chaud africain. That hot chocolate is as thick, rich, and velvety as advertised, almost like drinking liquid ganache. We also couldn't leave without ordering their famous chestnut Mont-Blanc pastry, which was silky, sweet, and totally lived up to the hype. Even though the dining room filled up quickly and was bustling, the staff was attentive, polished, and very efficient. Loved the entire experience from start to finish, an absolute treat!

I believe there are two locations, and from what I understand, they don't take reservations, so be prepared to arrive early and wait in line. We arrived around 9:30 AM with a party of five girls and waited about 20 minutes for a table, which honestly wasn't bad at all. The menu is extensive, but they also offer three brunch options that I thought were very reasonably priced. I went with the €45 option, and there was SO much food! Pastries, a breakfast croissant, their famous hot chocolate, and even dessert--it was the perfect amount and such a fun way to try a little bit of everything. Everything was incredibly fresh and delicious. And I absolutely loved the slow, relaxed Parisian pace. Our waitress was so kind and attentive, and we never felt rushed. Instead, we were able to sit back, enjoy our food, and really soak in the experience. Between the beautiful setting, delicious food, and relaxed atmosphere, this is definitely a must-try for a Parisian brunch experience!

The granola bowl has incredible flavors. The granola is soft so won't hurt your teeth, fromage blanc is lightly sweetened and very light, fruit is fresh, lime zest adds a great touch of freshness. Fruit included raspberries, strawberries, peaches and apple. The perfect summer combo. Will also be getting pâtisseries to go. Staff is friendly and helpful. You can sit outside, quiet in the morning and perfect place to work. I also got 2 pâtisseries to go: the fraisier and the signature flan. Definitely recommend the flan, the outside dough is soft (non-traditional for a flan). Was a bit disappointed by the fraisier, as I expected the lemon-thym cream to be more fruity. It was exceptionally done on a sablé the day I went, so the base cookie part was but/seed/butter based. Good but a bit too sweet overall for my taste. Overall a bit pricy as well. Will return for brunch/breakfast and to try other pastries!
