Shakespeare and Company Café

Ce n’est que récemment que j’ai appris que la petite librairie Shakespeare and Company avait ouvert un petit café. J’ai pu le tester cet après-​midi.
L’endroit est petit et rapidement plein mais j’ai été surprise que ça né soit pas encore plus bondé pour un samedi après-​midi. A l’intérieur on peut s’asseoir le long d’un «comptoir» qui permet d’avoir une jolie vue sur Notre-​Dame, mais nous avons choisi de nous asseoir à l’extérieur car la température le permettait :)
Mon chocolat chaud était très bon, un peu épais et pas trop sucré. Le cookie au matcha qui me faisait de l’oeil sur les photos a été à la hauteur de mes attentes.
Les prix, bien qu’un peu élevés pour la taille des pâtisseries notamment, restent dans la moyenne et sont même assez corrects pour ce quartier touristique. L’accueil est sympa :)
Ca m’a donné envie d’y revenir pour goûter leur chaï latte.

Adorable !
Un peu petit mais (thanks Bob !) toujours bon.
La vue sur Notre Dame est somptueuse.
Pour un brunch ou un goûter ensoleillé.

This area was missing a neighborhood coffee shop and Silvia has made one with great coffee, english and french speaking staff, and great cakes and muffins and snacks. The view from the window seats is stunning. All that and cheaper than Starbucks.
They do a fine flat white and can make whatever weird fancy drink you get at home. They do it with a smile and take cards — Neither easy to come by in Paris.
Word of warning, the place is packed in the summer. The café and book shop are open late and that is the best time to visit anyway. While the hords are sitting down to dinner, buy a coffee or tea and a snack, browse the book shop, buy something and get a stamp in the book. Then go have a late dinner with the locals.

I came here around noon on a Tuesday and was quickly greeted by four hip employees. I ordered an avocado cream cheese on a poppyseed bagel, green tea matcha chocolate cookie, and a latte. The total came out to be 11.5 € which is great in Paris. But the girl taking my order must have been new because she had to ask a handful of questions to get my order in in the first place. But let me be clear, my avocado masterpiece wasn’t on the menu board but I knew they had the ingredients to make it!
I quickly found a seat by the window and quite enjoyed the ambiance of the café. The barista brought over my latte but ended up spilling a lot of it that he went back and repoured me a cup. The bagel was delivered quickly after. I had to ask for my matcha cookie since they forgot.
The latte was exquisite. It was delicious. Same with my bagel. It had the perfect amount of cream cheese and they were not stingy with the avocado. The green tea matcha cookie was to die for but I would have liked it better if it was warm!
This is my new coffee shop and I plan to come here weekly until I die. The reason they lose a star is because of the time it took to put in my order, the fact that their wifi was down, and the missing cookie.
IF YOU ARE IN THE AREA COME HERE! They also have used books, a selection from their main right next door, around the café so browse and browse.

Just about the perfect accompaniment to the best English bookstore in Paris. Not necessarily the best coffee/​pastries/​etc., but probably one of the only places you can browse at least a handful of books while you sip your coffee. «Bob’s Bake Shop» supplies all the non-​coffee goodies in here.

Shakespeare and Company, la fameuse librairie anglosaxonne s’est agrandie depuis 10jours en se dotant d’un sympathique café, avec vue sur Notre Dame et le square René Viviani
Un havre de paix pour quelques semaines encore… nul doute que la nouvelle va vite se répandre surtout quand je vous dirai que pour né rien gâcher, ils ont su s’associer à notre cher Marc Grossman de Bob’s bake shop, qui vous substantera grâce à ses bons bagels, gateaux ou tartes home made
The place to be, je vous le dis alors n’attendez plus et courez y !!!
