The 10 Best Brunch Spots In Paris
Going out for breakfast or brunch on the weekend in Paris is a unique culinary experience that should not be missed. From homemade muesli and organic goji berries, to cereal drizzled in apricot-almond-honey, or the more classic scrambled eggs, bacon or smoked salmon, here’s our pick of the 10 best cultural brunch spots in Paris.
1. La Bossue
Patisserie, French
La Bossue opened almost three years ago and has been winning over Paris with its breakfast and brunch offerings ever since. There are madeleine cakes and different kinds of cookies to try, as well as their own range of viennoiseries (croissants, pains au chocolat, brioches). Everything is homemade, grandma’s style, which is a rare treat in Paris today. They have a great team of bakers skilled in concocting even the bread from scratch. Brunch is a big homemade buffet served with orange juice and unlimited hot drinks (organic teas and coffee or homemade hot chocolate) for a reasonable €24,50. Reservation is highly recommended due to the limited seating.
2. La Bauhinia at the Shangri-La Hotel

3. Café de Flore
Cafe, French
5. Supernature
Restaurant, Vegan
Supernature restaurant was founded by Clémentine and Christophe who are passionate about healthy eating, while delighting in creative invention. Their ‘menu brunch nature’ costs €25 and includes organic orange juice, white cheese, homemade muesli and organic goji berries, vegan ‘egg and cream cheese’, salad, guacamole, ham and sweet potatoes. If you’re still hungry afterwards, their cakes are to die for. The ultimate gem on their menu is the coconut milk dessert, deliciously made from natural coconut milk, then seed-topped to promise an explosion of deliciousness with every spoonful. They’ve also pioneered a fabulously filling chocolate brownie made of granola and a miel de châtaigner dessert (chestnut honey), topped with goji berries, as well as offering a wide range of gorgeous fruit salads.
6. Le Potager de Charlotte
Restaurant, Vegan
Le Potager de Charlotte is a vegan restaurant that serves seasonal and local produce in innovative ways. Their brunch is wholesome and filling, including a choice of coffee, herbal tea, hot chocolate, juices or smoothies. The traditional cooked egg is replaced with sliced avocado, the smooth fruit layered with a delicious helping of hummus and the tang of turmeric. This is followed by a course of chickpea and rice pancake with cashew cream – an ingenious vegan use of cashew nuts to create a dairy-free alternative to cream. It’s dappled in herbs, and topped with espelette pepper. As if that wasn’t enough, there’s still the granola, hazelnuts, almond, buckwheat choice to follow, before finishing off with agave nectar, cashew vanilla cinnamon cream or coconut whipped cream. Brunch is only served on Sundays from 11am to 3pm, priced at €29.
7. La Nouvelle Seine Restaurant
Restaurant, French
What better place to spend your weekend brunch in Paris than on a barge on the River Seine? Not only does La Nouvelle Seine boast a brilliant location beneath the dramatic architecture of Notre Dame, and also a varied programme of activities that ranges from comedy to cabaret, but it also serves mouthwatering food. There are mini-pastries galore, orange juice, tea and coffee, fresh fruit salad, and pancakes. If you’d rather a savoury option, how about scrambled eggs, bacon or smoked salmon? The brunch menu costs €28 and they also offer a kids’ brunch with fried egg and small fried potatoes, chicken nuggets, sugar or chocolate donuts, and fresh fruit brochette for €15. The best aspect is the unique view of the city from the river.
8. Le Caminito Cabaret
Bar, French
9. Le Galion

10. Le Ruisseau
