It was unpleasant, I ask for water for my dog, they actually refused.

Super nice staff, authentic atmosphere… definitely better that the hyper gentrified bloggerish cafes just next!

Plopped myself on the terrace to rest my feet for a minute and enjoy the view of Récollets. Great espresso, and some of the nicest service I’ve had in Paris. Great people watching, great neighborhood, and completely unpretentious. Top, top, top.

Easily one of the best coffees I have had in Paris. Nothing special just a well roasted good tasting coffee. They didn't even try to cut me off with English. Allowed me to practice my French which I must say does need some strong lessons. Anyway I diverge. Seems like a well loved local establishment run by a family. Love it.
