Café Saint Régis

Top choice in Paris


Few addresses entice knowing locals across the river, but this vibrant all-rounder does. The international menu, served by waiters in long white aprons, offers tempting Parisian classics – garlicky snails, onion soup, fried-egg-topped steak à cheval – alongside breakfasts, burgers, club sandwiches and meal-sized salads. The retro decor, including glorious ceramic-tiled ceiling and distressed wall mirrors, is equally Paris-delicious.

On warm days, linger outside over a coffee or cocktail. At weekends, all-day Sunday brunches and happy hour pack in the crowds.
