La Charlotte de l'Isle has been serving teas and hot chocolates accompanied by homemade cakes and tarts for over thirty years. Be thankful you can only indulge from Thursday through Sunday!

My absolutely favorite place for hot chocolate is La Charlotte de l'Îsle, a cluttered, almost alarmingly charming little cafe on the Île St-Louis run by a flamboyant woman of a certain age who could probably tell great stories of la vie de bohème after a carafe or two of wine. Rich, bittersweet, dreamily good, hers is the absinthe of hot chocolate."

Au Panetier -  of the oldest Paris patisseries, this basic shop with old-fashioned gas-style lamps has tiled walls and frosted glass depicting a rural scene with a church and windmill. Besides the standard croissants, pain au chocolats and excellent breads, the bakery produces outstanding fruit tarts, try their cherry and rhubarb.

10 place des Petits-Pères (Metro: Bourse)

Square Barye in the far southeastern corner of Saint Louis Island

À la Mère de Famille, founded in 1761 is an enchanting shop well versed in French regional specialties and old-fashioned bonbons, sugar candy, and more

You even still have to pay at the historical "cash register" situated in a small glass cabin at the center of the store.

35 Rue du Faubourg Montmartre - 75009 Paris

Galerie Vivienne  - rue des Petits Champs - is so beautiful, next to

the Place des Victoires that I love so much too and if you are in the

area, you cannot miss the gardens of the Palais Royal.

A stop at the A Priori Thé salon will allow you to try their melange maison,

an orange and honey tea

MAISON DE L'AMERIQUE LATINE (DE LA)
217, boulevard Saint Germain 75007 PARIS

In a leafy passage in the heart of Montparnasse, this community museum pieces together one of the last remainders of the great Montparnasse period in art history. It is bordered by artists' workshops from the beginning of the century. Pretty Virginia creeper ivy obscures this museum that recalls all who once lined the streets of Montparnasse: Picasso, Modigliani, Chagall, Hemingway

21, Avenue du Maine – 75015 - +(33) 1 42 22 91 96

Café at Place des Vosges (Place des Vosges is not a secret place for visitors who know Paris well but if you have missed it during your last stay, don't next time)

Paris cafes are possibly the most well-known image of the City of Light. The Paris Cafe is more than a place to sip coffee. It is an institution in Paris, it is a magnet for tourists, it is a cultural phenomenon. No trip to Paris is complete without a relaxing, long sit with some fascinating people-watching at a Paris cafe

The prettiest movie theater in Paris, La Pagode, has an excellent programming and if you are lucky enough, you will enjoy a cup of tea in the Japanese Garden but don't tell anyone as they want to keep the place very confidential : 57 rue de Babylone 75007.

A listed building, the Pagoda has had an eventful history. It dates back to the 19th century when it was bought, deconstructed, and brought back to France by Mr Morin, a director of Bon Marché, to give to his wife as a present. Rebuilt exactly as it had been, in the gardens of a townhouse, it first opened as a ballroom, before becoming a cinema in 1931. It first closed for works in 1973, re-opening in 1979, and was closed again in 1997. It was the efforts of the Save The Pagoda foundation that led to  being re-opened in November 2000.
