18. Paris Coffee Shop

This family owned and operated coffee shop offers homestyle cooking, along with friendly, courteous service that's earned it many loyal customers. Open since 1926, the restaurant is one of the two oldest in Fort Worth. Owner and pie baker Mike Smith greets everyone by name, and waitresses flash ready smiles. Breakfast is quite an experience, complete with terrific biscuits and standards like eggs, bacon, sausage and light, syrup-topped pancakes. At lunch, the eatery is known for its chicken fried steak, meatloaf, chili and daily plate specials. It also serves up some of the best fruit pies this side of the Mississippi.   (© 10Best)

Get here at mid-morning if you want a seat for lunch. Lines stretch out the door at noon for daily specials. Chicken and dumplings draw the biggest crowd on Thursday. Fried chicken, only served on Friday, has many fans too. Don't miss dessert. Owner Mike Smith makes them himself--nearly a dozen flavors, including apple, lemon, coconut, chocolate, and a sugar-free choice. (from Southern Living)

I love the Paris Coffee Shop This is the best coffee shop in Fort Worth!! The pies are homemade and taste out of this world.The food is great! Every time I've frequented this place the line has been out the door. The wait is well worth it. the price range is very reasonable. This place also serves tuna salad sandwhiches. I forget what they call it but it's my favorite. My sister is in her 60s now but she use to work there as a waitress in her teen years. If this establishment was a run of the mill restaraunt it would not be labeled the best coffee shop in town and still have customers lined out the door after all those years. I've never met the owner, but he must be good.

I have only ever gone on Thursdays just for the Chicken and Dumplings and I have to say that they are worth the wait in line for. The pies are also very good.

Everything was very good. The pies are the best – my favorite is the coconut meringue. Best chicken and dumplings on Thursday. Must try!
