For coffee lovers: Coutume Café

If you are not the type to be very hungry in the morning but you value a good coffee, Coutume Café is perfect for you. Indeed, the place looks more like the coffee laboratory than a restaurant.

For a yummy brunch: Le Colorova

Located at 47 Rue de l’Abbé Grégoire in Paris sixth district, you will find the Colorova café. It is a bit more expensive but still had to be included among the best breakfast places in Paris for at least two reasons: the very colorful and cozy interior decoration, and the chef, formerly working at Plaza Athénée. You will have a wonderful brunch with salmon or tuna, avocado, pastries and jam for 26 euros. The closest metro station is Saint-Placide on metro line 4.
