“ We found this place wandering through the streets and had colourful drinks sweetened with beet sugar and then the GF bread with avocado and perfectly soft boiled eggs with more colourful trimmings was so sustaining and super delicious! Recommend this clean and modern cafe for a perfect brunch! ”
“ First pumpkin spice heading into fall was the yummiest latte we’ve had in Paris yet. Large portions so bring your appetite. Fresh fruit toppings and candied walnuts were a delight. Vibrant atmosphere and the friendliest staff. ”
“ This was my second time visiting this brunch spot, and once again, the food did not disappoint. It’s honestly one of the best brunch places in Paris fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. However, the experience comes with a bit of a downside: the wait. We stood in line for over 30 minutes, which seems to be the norm given how popular the place is. Unfortunately, they don’t take reservations, which would definitely make things easier, especially considering how small the space is. For such a well-loved spot, the restaurant is quite tiny. All in all, I’d still come back for the food, it’s that good. Just make sure to arrive early and be ready to wait a bit! ”
“ This is a super breakfast spot! The portions are huge and unique, but well-balanced. The rose latte was incredible, while the smoothies left a bit to be desired. We had the Chik’n spicy waffle, the Hot dog Benny, and shared the cinnamon roll pancakes - way too much for two people but all of it was amazing. There’s not an actual hot dog in the Benny - the namesake is from the bun used. The vibe is awesome - early 2000s hip-hop with some older stuff woven in - not too pound but we were groovin. Bright and clean atmosphere - loved it. ”
“ Had a delicious late lunch here a few days ago and managed to get a table after ~10 mins of waiting! The food was really delicious, the hot bacon Benedict came out perfect, with the sauce complimenting the bacon and eggs beautifully. A great meal for a relatively affordable price! ”
“ Had brunch at Santa Lyna in Paris and absolutely loved it! The eggs Benedict with halloumi was perfectly done rich, creamy, and full of flavour and the mocha was just as good, smooth and comforting It’s a popular spot, and for good reason, so I’d highly recommend making a reservation it fills up fast, especially on weekends. The location is central Paris too, tucked in a lively area that’s perfect for a post-brunch stroll. Ratings: Food & Coffee: 5/5 Service & Ambience: 4.5/5 Money’s Worth: 4.5/5 ”
