Montmartre & Northern Paris
With its large windows and a few carefully chosen antiques, this belle époque cafe at the foot of Montmartre seems as timeless as the Butte itself. Dating back to 1894 and attached to the venerable Le Trianon theatre, it’s no stretch to imagine artists like Toulouse-Lautrec and crowds of show-goers once filling the place in the evening. All-day food too.
Book ahead for Sunday's jazz brunch.
