Cafe Shakespeare & Company With Bob's Bake Shop

Great selection of good food, free from faff! Seats inside and out available. Good coffee and cake stop, refuel for the shop next door

Come here with the book you just purchased and sit down with a coffee. Nice location, though does get crowded. Not one of the best, but handly and convenient.

I stopped by after purchasing a book next store. It is small and quaint, and by the time I got there all the seating was taken. I took a coffee to go, and it was great. I would have loved the opportunity to sit inside for a while, but had a schedule to keep for that day

Great place to have lunch to the sound of the bells. We sat outside in the sun and watched the world go by. Quite expensive (€8 for a smoked salmon bagel, but then it is the centre of Paris!) and the service was very laid back, but a nice pitstop after looking round the bookshop. Nice strong coffee

I felt quite blessed, and a little Parisian as a drank my amazing coffee while gazing at the Cathedral Notre Dame. After leisurely browsing the iconic bookstore make sure you stop here for a minute or two.Note: the black fountain in front provides cold drinking water, so fill up your water bottle here.

Everything I tried was delicious (I went two days, so I tried 2 different smoothies, a soup of the day and a bagel, all vegan). There are tables outside too, but it was raining when we went there so we stayed inside, it's a small café but I loved the atmosphere and the staff was friendly. I loved it, I recommend it to all book lovers who just HAVE TO SEE the bookstore next door.

To be able to sit outside on a table with a book and a beer (or coffee or tea) watching the world go by is a privilege. Especially if the view is that of Notre Dame just over the bridge.As they don't sell beer without food, my wife helpfully got a bowl of home-made soup so that I could indulge my curiosity over a bottled craft beer. The soup was good, apparently.Shakespearean heaven on earth. And don't forget about the bookshop next door!

This is a super cosy London-style cafè in the centre of Paris. Perfect to meet up with a friend and share stories over coffee or a small snack/lunch. I haven't tried the food yet, but it looks very yummy and healthy, cakes, muesli-bara, salad-bowl, sandwiches. . . I had a soja iced coffee, which was delicious. On the weekends/bank holidays, it is very popular, so bring some time to queue in line ;-) if there are no free tables, there's a very sweet parc just next door (-> take-away).

The food was good but nothing spectacular, although they were all very healthy. Most are vegetarian, vegan or gluten free options and the food is light. Their juices are real and fresh. We had the salmon bagel, which was alright, although the bread was a little tough. The salad of the day, which came with seaweed, lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, a tiny bit of tofu and a generous portion of quinoa was also alright. The quiche was good and not heavily seasoned. The best part was the tarts, we got the lemon tart and he walnut tart. Both were not overly sweet and the lemon one had a really strong citrus flavor. The lemonade was not too sweet but was not cold enough. It was a bit pricey. The staff w...
