Breakfast

If you're looking for a perfect breakfast in Paris, don't miss this Marais boulangerie and pâtisserie, near the Notre Dame. Don't miss their fluffy, buttery croissants or the pear tart. If you're craving a picnic lunch, grab some gourmet sandwiches to go – their bread is fresh, and their salmon and arugula filling is particularly yummy.

Breakfast

You'll want to book ahead but you'll be glad you did because La Chambre aux Oiseaux is one of the city’s hottest brunch spots on Sundays. Once inside you may feel like you're visiting your grandma's house – with a shabby-chic charm, crazy floral wallpaper, and huge comfy chairs.
The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and the music is funky (but not too loud!). Insider tip: this is one the best spots in the city to get an American-style coffee!

Lunch

Get ready for the best lunch in Paris. You'll love this little bistro full of art and books. You might miss it as you walk by – it's a hidden gem you'll be happy you discovered.
Run by a Vietnamese former philosophy professor, the bistro makes an amazing Bobun. Other highlights are the beef bourguignon and the Porc au Caramel, which are out of this world.

Lunch

Come visit Paris' first cat café! If you're lucky, you'll be greeted by cats who might just sit on your lap as you nibble on some delicious chocolate cake.
Brunch or lunch options are available, and there are two levels you can sit on. Insider tip: the upstairs level has more natural light and a cozier feel, so see if you can snag a seat there. But hey, either way, if a cat comes to play, it's worth it!

Dinner

What’s not to love about an intimate hole-in-the-wall that serves up oozy, cheesy fondue for a price that’s just right? This spot is tiny (beware, you may need to climb over other guests to get to your seat!).
You'll choose from Fondue Savoyarde (cheese and wine) or Fondue Bourguignonne (meat). And for the perfect conversation starter –you'll have a hard time not collapsing into giggles when you try to drink the wine that comes served in baby bottles!

Le Wagon Bleu

Le Wagon Bleu

Dinner

Le Wagon Bleu will make you feel like you've traveled straight back in time – the restaurant is in an old Orient Express carriage. Even the luggage racks are still intact as well as the royal blue chairs.
The food and wine has a Corsican bias; the steak fries and burgers are delicious, and the cheese plate is to die for. You might want to save Le Wagon Bleu for your last dinner in Paris because it’s pricy, but more than worth it!
