Tearoom restaurants in France

  1. A

    Meert

    Gaufres (waffles) made in a hinged iron griddle with Madagascar vanilla are the speciality at this luxury tearoom-cum-pastry-and-sweets-shop, which has served kings, viceroys and generals (including Charles de Gaulle, a life-long fan) since 1761. Next door, Meert’s chocolate shop (per kg €89) has a wrought-iron balcony, coffered ceiling and painted wood panels that will transport you back to 1839.

    Thé Majuscule

    Downstairs it's a typically chaotic French secondhand bookshop; upstairs it's a classy tearoom with a warm-season terrace, homemade tartes (including one vegetarian pie), salads (in summer), plat du jour (€9.50), cakes and exotic teas (€3.30).
