Café de la Paix

9ème ARRONDISSEMENT. The venerable Cafe de la Paix began serving patrons in 1862. Its location within the Grand Hotel makes stopping in for a coffee and sweet an experience worthy of the surroundings. Soaring columns, sumptuous draperies, luxurious red leather chairs and crisp white linen cloths cast a spell of undeniable elegance. The interior terrace provides a glassed-in view of the street and the Opéra, while the outdoor terrace, weather permitting, allows for a true sidewalk cafe experience, albeit in the rarefied air of this neighborhood. Enjoy breakfast, lunch or a light snack, you'll feel that certain je ne sais quois just sitting here. METRO: Opéra.
