Café Guynemer

They could make a bit more effort with the food and the servers basic manners. I know it is a lot to ask French servers to have etiquette!! : Bless the French service! it is improving in recent years but has a long way to go to catch up with the rest of the world! Like much of the French restaurant food, the lunch was dull & tasteless but edible.

This was the place that adopted me for my visit to Paris. I've never felt so welcomed in any place, and we're talking 'bout Paris! The waiters were so kind, they would try to understand my basic french knowledge, and even helped me (kindly) to pronounce the words correctly. If nothing was working, they would switch to english or spanish. I really liked the underground space. I've never seen a restaurant that had something like that. It was cosy and primarily meant to students. I really liked the bathroom's aesthetic. They weren't separated by gender. If you're a tourist, get used to coffee because in this city it's very strong! It would be good for the menu to have more diversity when it comes to pâttiserie, but it's more a recommendation than a complain. The food was, overall, delicious. I felt very happy everytime here and when I had to leave Paris, it was sad saying goodbye to this place. I recommend it to everyone, tourist or not!

Wait staff here are beyond rude. Horrible coffee. Omelette is terrible. Avoid at all costs IMHO. Your day will improve.

A comfort from the rain or sun, from a long walk or a short one, a respite with good coffee and food, ample old-Parisienne seating, and walls of windows, next to the Jardin du Luxembourg. A wonderful place to sit and eat in an afternoon.

Great place for a meal after visiting the nearby gardens. The staff were friendly and helpful (especially as my French is woefully inadequate.) The cafe is clean and comfortable. The food was delicious. I had the duck with garlicky roasted potatoes and it was really tasty. Prices were reasonable.
