Le Marais

Just a short walk from Le Marais, Carette is as French as a café can get. It's a great place to lazily start the day, where you can soak in the sun, the square-trimmed trees, ornate lampposts, and the red brick architectural marvels of the Place des Vosges. Especially if you've got a sweet tooth, this is the place to gorge on eclairs, freshly baked pastries, and macarons that some locals might say are better than at Ladurée.

Opéra

If Bon Bouquet ever does a rebrand, they should call themselves 'Pink Paradise', and you can clearly see why. Not only are their tropical decor and colourful interiors just a breath of fresh air, but each item on their brunch menu begs to be explored. Its rising popularity only means you'll have to get there a little bit earlier to enjoy some of their signature savoury and sweet dishes. Their exotic eggs benedict is served with homemade hollandaise sauce drizzled over fresh avocado on soft sliced brioche. If you're looking for something sweeter, try the French toast—your Instagram feed will thank you for it.
