Café de Paris is a classic Parisian brasserie in the 1st arrondissement, at 3 Rue de l’Échelle just steps from the Louvre and the Palais-Royal. Open from morning until late, it’s a cozy, all-day spot for traditional French café fare in one of the most central corners of the city.
What to expect at Café de Paris
This is a dependable, homemade-from-scratch brasserie rather than a destination fine-diner — and that’s the appeal. The kitchen turns out French classics such as escargots, foie gras and a well-regarded steak tartare, alongside a hearty breakfast and crêpes earlier in the day. With a warm, traditional room and a location a short walk from the Louvre, it’s a handy choice for a coffee, a casual lunch, or a relaxed dinner while sightseeing in central Paris.
