Lonely Planet review for Angélina

Take a break from the long trek along the Tuileries gardens and line up for a table at Angélina, along with lunching ladies, their posturing poodles and half the students from Tokyo University. This beautiful, high-ceilinged tearoom has exquisite furnishings, mirrored walls and fabulous fluffy cakes. More importantly, it serves the best and most wonderfully sickening ‘African’ hot chocolate in the history of time (€6.90), served with a pot of whipped cream. It’s a positive meal replacement (though breakfast is €16.50 to €27.50).

    Quick Stop

    If you're a little short on time or cash, Angelina's famous hot chocolate can be ordered "emporter" at the counter. Although you don't get the famous whipped cream, you can enjoy your hot chocolate in the beautiful Jardin de Tuileries across the street.

    Any visit to Paris should include a stop by Angelina’s.

    Angelina’s is a true style French tea room facing the Jardin des Tuileries on Rue du Rivoli. Angelina’s offers amazing afternoon tea, cakes and incredible hot chocolate l’Africain, smooth, rich and decadently delicious hot chocolate.
    The ambiance at Angelina’s allows you to take a seat on your own (they also accommodate for families), indulge in their French pastries and cakes, while reading a good novel. Angelina’s is great for relaxing – you won’t find a better cup of hot chocolate in Paris. Very delightful experience, great décor and you feel like the crème de la crème being served by a French man in a tuxedo.
