Most Beautiful Cafés in Paris (You’ve Never heard of!)

Am I in Versailles No I'm actually in a café and today we're going to discover all the most beautiful cafés in Paris And now we're at Café Nemours which is yes I'm not drinking coffee but it's one of the best places for people-watching in all of Paris I really like it because the architecture behind me is like Roman columns And it's just next to the Comédie Française the French comedy And to my right I have the Palais-Royal the park that I absolutely love To my left I have the Louvre So strategically and in terms of its location it's superb There I had a mint tea So actually what menthe à l'eau is is a mint syrup with a bit of lemonade And I absolutely love this café because from the outside it's magnificent But also when you're sitting here when you sit here you get the feeling you're in Paris in the 1950s You feel like you're in Paris in the 1950s It's one of the best cafés for people-watching So if you come to Paris you absolutely have to go to Café Le Nemours And actually it was inspired by the name of an author named Colette Le Nemours That's why it got the name of this place And it's in the Palais-Royal Now it's the weekend so we can see people on the square dancing in the open-air space And it's a great place to grab a typical French brasserie lunch You can just come for a coffee or a drink But it's really a great place to watch people It's a wonderful place to people-watch and enjoy a perfect day in Paris And now we are at Noir Café or in Noir Café a beautiful café in the 9th arrondissement the 9th district Come on And here we are now at Noir Café I've been here before in another video I wasn't a big fan because the service wasn't great But this one is so amazing because it's in an old gallery And also there are huge windows so the lighting is excellent It gives a warm and cozy feeling And the barista was very nice even gave water to Mémé So this is probably one of the most beautiful highly anticipated cafes in Paris So definitely come check it out if you're in the area And if you want to try one of their barista cafes Wow so I tried one of their teas their Thé Noir their black teas because I don't want too much caffeine every day So let's give it a try It's Black Forest Tea so like forest black tree tea Very good And I really like it here because I was expecting it to be very full of people Because it's such a trendy café Noir Café it's quite new in Paris But this one is quite empty and we're a Sunday it's a Sunday not many people And the barista was very nice and I still feel it's very cozy And the people I can hear around me are all French speakers So much less touristy than the other one we did last time the other Noir So it means that we need to give places always a second chance If you didn't have the best experience at one café in the same chain Always give it another try maybe you'll like it And now next we are at the next most beautiful café which is Le Café Carette It's a very famous café tea house and pastry shop that has been around since 1927 And today here I ordered some of my favorites I ordered a hot chocolate which I love especially with this weather I ordered a chocolate croissant because I previously made a video about all the chocolate croissants in Paris Which you can go check out And my absolute favorite dessert is Montblanc so I ordered a mini version of a Montblanc Very excited to eat these And this time we're inside because I made a video of this café before The old cafés versus the modern cafés which was outside You can also see that But the reason I like it here is because it's mixed with both locals people who come here very often and also with tourists And they're very pet-friendly and the staff is very nice But their pastries are all amazing And what I would recommend for you to do when you come to Paris to this café is that if the weather is nice sit on the terrace It might take a bit of time but it's worth it And all their famous pastries including Le Montblanc They have it in a mini version in a petite version for €2.80 So if you just want to taste a new pastry it's absolutely worth it It's worth it Superb the chocolate So good the hot chocolate And actually the reason why a lot of people love this café It's not just about the aesthetic it's the history It was started by a man named Jean Carrette along with his wife Madeleine in Place du Trocadéro And it started as a tea salon and a pastry shop And it's crazy that after all these years they managed to keep this cozy atmosphere Having really high-quality pastries And they kept kind of the feeling of the tea house initially And then they spread out to Place des Vosges which is where I am right now In Le Marais which is the one I love to go to because I love this area in Paris But I would say this is one of my favorite cafes because it has the feel of the 1930s So the wild years of the 30s So you feel like you're in a 30s movie And even the architecture of the arches outside is really magnificent And the interior has some paintings very bright and very spacious I really like coming here And honestly sometimes there aren't that many people So you can really just have a quiet café and enjoy the view Enjoy the view to the fullest It seems this café is in Versailles but it's not actually It's part of an American chain which I'm going to let you guess which one Write to me in the comments if you know I usually don't go to chain cafes because I prefer independent local cafes in the city But it's crazy It really looks like if the Opéra Garnier because we're right next to it had a coffee shop it would be here And the reason it looks like Versailles is because this was actually once an independent opera house Since we're not far from the Paris Opera the Palais Garnier It's crazy to think they remade it and turned it into a café The people next to me are working together We're all just drinking coffees and hot chocolates And it's crazy to think that we have this open to us And that we're in the 19th century in an old opera house It's absolutely magnificent Right now I'm looking at the reviews because I like to do this in places and cafes that I like And they're so funny they're super hilarious Like the one where stars are saying it's only for the decor And they were saying the service is not great The experience we had today I think the service was okay And there are a lot of French people also saying like don't support this chain Which is also funny And the five stars are from people like in Kansas City or in Michigan And they're like full of glamour I think you can guess by now what kind of chain this is And I wonder if places like this in your country also look like this The city also looks like this Because I would have never thought that they would have such a magnificent café That it would be open to everyone And that you can just appreciate being in an old opera house Also I think the prices are a bit high Like the prices are a bit high Like even for the hot chocolate and the coffee And I think this chain is very Americanized And so it might not please most French people And that's why just sitting here I can hear a lot of different languages But it's interesting because this place was one of the first places I came to try to co-work Working from home alone It was really hard to find a place where I could work co-work And this happened to be one of the only places It's also not a bad place to work To have a cup of coffee just catch up with people And I would say of course since we're in the very touristic part of Paris Be careful with your belongings Like be careful with your things Because I was passing by and someone was saying that they don' t have their jackets So be careful But other than that it's a very beautiful café And I would say it's worth trying once Perhaps you don't need to go to this place all the time you're in Paris But once it's worth it And now And now we're actually in the café that was recommended to me by one of you guys Which I discovered recently and I really love That's Café Campania So Le Café Campania is actually the café located in the Musée d'Orsay Inside the Musée d'Orsay And that's why it's evening now because usually I go to cafés during the day Because every Thursday you can go for a reduced price You can go there and actually visit the museum at night Therefore I advise you to do so I really recommend you come by night But yeah I feel like the café has a very relaxed vibe And the prices are surprisingly affordable for being in such a historic train station and famous museum Genre is a great place to have coffee and relax And that's why this is one of the most beautiful ones for me Because right behind me you also have the clock You have the clock So you actually feel like you 're in a movie You feel like you're in a movie Et voilà That's the end of our beautiful cafés video Let me know which one you thought was the most beautiful Which one was your favorite in the comments and why And if I've missed any if you've been to Paris and you recommend any cafés I'm always curious to find out new ones Because I love cafés Speaking of which there's going
