The 21 Best Cafés in Paris
"The crowd here is trendy and cosmopolitan—definitely on the younger side, definitely on the fashion-industry side. Locals know to come early in the morning because the rest of the day will see a steady stream of people, many who are visiting or have crossed Paris to drink coffee here, pack the space until closing time. Partisan is the only specialty coffee in Paris to offer two methods (or approaches) on its menu: Italian and New Wave. New Wave refers to a lighter roast common to specialty coffee that bring out a coffee's aromatic profile, its terroir, and the drying technique that has been chosen. In general, there's more acidity in these coffees. Italian roasts are darker, more robust (and actually represents half of Partisan's orders among clients). Both are used for espressos, lattés, flat whites, and other coffee drinks. Also served: a much-loved matcha latte." - Lindsey Tramuta
