In one of the most lively areas of the Latin Quarter you'll find this traditional and authentic French café, aptly named the Café Latin. It has the whole corner here just at the start of the famed rue Saint André des Arts, when you come from the Fontaine St. Michel/ Notre Dame direction. This is one of the cutest streets and areas in St. Michel as you head towards the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. At lunchtime the café is full of regulars and also a good dose of visitors. Evenings are the same and the comraderie you find at the bar is tangible.
