The hotel is nearby and so is Sylvia Beach's bookstore, Shakespeare & Co. across the river.
Now, we need a coffee house to plan our arrival in Paris (once again).
Found but not lost, tucked away on a quiet street near Notre-Dame, Au Vieux Paris d'Arcole is a coffee house that feels like a step back in time. Its ivy-draped facade, vibrant purple chairs, and vintage charm make it one of the most picturesque spots in Paris.
Established in 1594, this café exudes old-world elegance, with antique furnishings and an ambiance that whispers of centuries past. While primarily a restaurant, Au Vieux Paris d'Arcole, 2, Rue Chanoinesse, 75004, serves a delightful coffee experience, with rich, well-balanced brews best enjoyed at one of the outdoor tables under the shade of wisteria (spring only).
Whether you’re lingering over an espresso or indulging in a classic French pastry, the atmosphere alone is worth the visit. Nestled on Île de la Cité, Au Vieux Paris d’Arcole is the perfect place to savor a quiet moment in the heart of the City of Light. If the cafe is swarmed with tourist bees wander back to the book store, where the left bank teems with coffee houses--one after another.
