The 16 Best Cafes in Paris | Eater

"For years, George Whitman, the owner of the iconic Shakespeare and Company bookshop, asked his neighbor if he could take over the abandoned garage next door and transform it into his dream cafe. Whitman passed away in 2011, but his daughter, Sylvia, persevered, and in 2015 her father’s vision was finally realized. The cafe serves a healthy dose of literary puns (Shakespeare Shake, a Flapjack Kerouac, The Bun Also Rises) alongside lemon pie and healthy fare from Bob’s Bake Shop. The tea is sourced from London-based Postcard Teas, but the coffee is hyper-local, courtesy of Café Lomi (also on this list). Located in the 5th arrondissement. Sam Kim" - Rooksana Hossenally
