La Maison Rose
La Maison Rose is simply one of the most charming cafes in Paris. Housed in a pretty pink maisonette on Rue de l'Abreuvoir in Montmartre, it's almost like a small slice of the French countryside here in the bustling capital city. And if you're wondering just how picturesque this cafe is, it even had a cameo in the hit Netflix series, “Emily in Paris.” To make an appearance in a Hollywood TV series means there it's worth checking out right? Even if you haven't heard about that show, you still ought to go here and try their delightful pastries and desserts!

Le Consulat
Le Consulat is perhaps one of the most iconic cafes in Paris. One of the oldest hotspots on Rue Norvins in the
18th arrondissement, countless historic figures have dined here over the years. They include the likes of Picasso, Sisley, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, and more. That alone is reason enough for history buffs, art historians, and art lovers to frequent the place. As for the rest, you can always enjoy its idyllic ambiance as you indulge in some onion soup and escargots. Not to mention snap a few Instagram-worthy pictures along the way!

Café des Deux Moulins
If you've seen the Academy Award-winning film “Amélie” from 2002, you'd know all about Café des Deux Moulins. There's a good chance that this hotspot was already one of the most popular cafes in Paris—among the locals, at least—but the movie skyrocketed its fame to global heights. Now, it's become a must-see attraction for tourists who want to relive the charm of the movie. And it helps that Café des Deux Moulins is just as delightful in real life! Amélie might not serve you here but you can still enjoy a hot cup of coffee, a tasty pastry, and other French delicacies too!

Café Marlette
Since Paris has so many sweets to offer, it's easy to get carried away and lose control over your own health. Fortunately, there are many cafes in Paris that can still give you the best of both worlds. One of them is Café Marlette, a charming organic coffee shop on Rue des Martyrs. While the place still serves its fair share of cakes and pastries, it's become well-known for its healthy and organic menu too. From fruit bowls to veggie sandwiches, Café Marlette insists that you don't have to let go of your sweet tooth to live a healthy lifestyle.

Café Lomi
And finally, there's Café Lomi on Rue Marcadet. Located only a hop and a skip away from the Marcadet-Poissoniers station, this is one of the first cafes in Montmartre you'd spot after getting off the
Paris subway. And out of all the cafes in Paris—at least, in this area—it's also the most devoted to coffee. With beans that originate from various countries in Africa and Latin America, Café Lomi takes coffee seriously. This isn't to say that all the other coffee shops in Paris don't, but you still have to commend this hotspot's dedication to caffeine too!
