Fundamental point of the Paris Chic!

Fundamental point of the Paris Chic!
Let's start by saying that the architecture of the place is astonishing, it seems to be catapulted into a mini Versailles ... golden frames, a wide staircase, frescoes, paintings and mirrors on all the walls.
The waiters dressed very elegant and always friendly, do not distinguish between simple tourists and people more "wealthy"!
We tried the hot chocolate, good but nothing special, two desserts, including a millefeuille, instead very good and delicate, a tea to the mind with oriental notes and a club-sandwich, with considerable dimensions and according to my exquisite sister-in-law.
Prices are high (about 8 euros on average for hot drinks and 9 euros for desserts) but to be Paris and above all for the beauty of this Bar / Pastry shop, I assure you it's worth it.
The only flaw the long wait for the table (40 minutes)

This is the best hot chocolate I have had in my life.
I feel like I'm drinking chocolate for cake mixes! The texture is quite thick, I love it! I will come back for sure
In addition, the saleswomen at the counter were very nice and pleasant

Typical Parisian pastry, elegant refined where you can enjoy a delicious and revisited classic Mont Blanc at the table! Obviously the pastry shop also offers other pastries like macarons and delicious hot chocolate!

This is a tourist spot that is totally worth the visit regardless. MAKE A RESERVATION!!! You get to walk right past the line and enjoy the tasty treats. I will say, I'm not sure it is worth a +1 hour wait. If you make a reservation, which Angelina makes soooooo easy, then this is a total must for a visit to Paris.

No taste on the pastry worthy of a real frozen range like Paul or the golden brioche a little pride anyway we are a country with real pastry chefs with a fair know-how you have to change and make quality especially with your range of price !!!

One of the nicest and most delicious dessert places in town. I highly recommend this place. Even if there is a line out the door - and there often is - it is worth the wait. Be sure to pick out a few gifts on the way out too. The hot chocolate is simply out of this world.

Somewhat disappointing. This place is packed with tourists and very few locals. We ordered their signature chestnut cake (mont blanc) and hot chocolate. Both were much too sweet to finish and also overpriced (25 euros for 1 small cake and 2 hot chocolates)

An excellent place for a takeaway hot chocolate. If you want to sit in the restaurant or eat pastries inside booking is essential or you will need to queue. There is a stand outside usually selling the hot chocolate or you can buy it and enjoy it in the park. It's too rich for one person finish!

Stylish, pleasant place. Great century decor particularly appreciated by tourists. Style a bit quaint but not unpleasant. Price up to the myth, that is to say rather high.
Mythical chocolate still too sweet. Too bad for the "real" amateurs !!

The hot chocolate is yummy and so are the macaroons. Whilst the sandwiches and mini pastries were decent but not outstanding. The atmosphere and the famous for being famous element is what makes it an experience.

Have the nice glomorous feeling of Vienese cafes. Sadly pretty crowded and crammed but once you passed that great pastries and hot chocolate. Also have a little shop if you want to take away a nice souvenir home.

Fresh, homemade, good but overpriced for brunch and what it offers is the limit of the flight, the place does not justify this price. On the other hand, we will appreciate the desserts to take away that despite their prices do not disappoint. Better to put 2 more for delicious cakes here than 2 less in a bakery that serves under the Metro covered with fake handmade. Here the desserts are always fabulous even if the service is very unkind, the lady of the box is she cons so nice and warm that it goes back the note of the service to the maximum.

Pleasant surroundings. A stroke of luck no waiting for me. The staff is very friendly and smiling and my breakfast a delight! Rates quite high but not surprising given the sector and the quality of the place.

The temple of hot chocolate.
However on my last visit the chocolate was a little worse than usual. Hence one less star ...
The crowds ??? Over 20 minutes of waiting !!! Or the strikes ??? And less fresh milk ???
But hey ... the setting remains exceptional.

Fancy dessert cafe (also has a lunch menu) with attentive waitresses. Be prepared to wait in the line getting in. The place is huge and nicely decorated yet the lack of natural light makes the atmosphere a little gloomy. Very touristic so expect lots of loud noice too. Yet the desserts are very delicious. The prices are high but the overall experience is enjoyable.

Wow! Amazing! The hot chocolate is a little too much for me but perfect for the "gourmand". The brunch is so good, I think it is my favorite place un the city.
The "brioche au pain perdu" is awesome. Believe me you have to try it.
I will definitely come back.

Beautiful dining room. Most perfect quiche I've ever had - large chunks of ham in a softly-set custard with a very flaky crust. Hot chocolate that will make you swoon with delight. Small shop where you can buy pastries, teas, etc. to take home. Only downside is very tight seating arrangement. On my favorites list!

Went here mainly because of all the five-star reviews. Unfortunately I have to agree with all the three stars people. It's expensive, decent though way too sweet. I really believe people buy all the hype; kind of like Rolex wearers.
