Holybelly 19

Absolutely love this spot! 19 serves a range of small plates (2-3 plates each person) and 5 is more traditional breakfast (eggs and pancakes). Everything at 19 comes with beautiful presentation, interesting ingredients and concept. What’s more the food is delicious! The almond okra galette and almond cake (not too sweet at all) are the best in my opinion. Their menu does change according to what seasonal ingredients they get. Service is top notch.

Enjoyed everything about this cafe. The breakfast is tapas style and every dish I sampled was fantastic. The service is relaxed but attentive and you can tell they love what they are doing. Wish I could come here every day!

Interesting concept, tapas for breakfast. However the experience is not clear, 2 similar restaurants are located next to each other so you end up in one of them by confusion vs purpose. Randomly rude staff. Food was nice but would have been better if curated.

Don't be fooled by the size, 19 has a huge taste of modern Parisian breakfast in a small package. Small plates with a great atmosphere and staff. I say skip the bunch spot and enjoy this gem.

A lovely array of teas and small breakfast plates. We enjoyed a variety of both savory and sweets. A fun and relaxing atmosphere with friendly and kind staff.

As they say, it’s good because they care! We left very happy and with a big smile, everything we ordered was amazing. Staff was very nice and friendly.

Amazing food and coffee. Friendly staff. Holy belly 19s menu is small sharing plates with lots of variety. Down the road you can get full breakfast at holybelly5. Def recommend for anyone in the area

Seriously, it’s the best tartare de veau I had in Paris, and the fries are so crunchy. The dessert was also very satisfying. The staff was welcoming as usual, and spoke perfect English. Undoubtedly the best meal I had in Paris. Holybelly does not disappoint.

Best breakfast we had in Paris! We went twice and I think we'll go a third time while we are here. The menu is so good we want to try it all! It's also great to get such good espresso at a restaurant.

We did not eat here, but I wanted to write this review just to inform you that this place isn't the place that serves brunch. You have to go down the street and eat at Holybelly 5. I think the reason you see brunch items in these pictures here is because they are sister restaurants and I bet the pics are mixed together because of that. I have seen that before with two restaurants that are owned by the same people.

Amazing! Best breakfast ive ever had. Line went quick and the service was awesome! There was like 10 different languages spoken inside, super cool ambiance.

I can't decide if "Holybelly" is a term more fitting for how happy my belly was eating all of their incredible food, or if it's more fitting for what I want to say trying to zip up my skinny jeans after eating all of their incredible food! ;) Either way works, and I'm so glad I've gotten to return to Holybelly a few times since first coming here in September 2015. On that fateful day I immediately knew that I would return someday...yes, I put that out in the universe, and thankfully the universe listened! Living in California and having an obsession with all things coffee and brunch is easy with so many options available (gotta love that California lifestyle!), but sometimes it's a challenge to satisfy these cravings when traveling in other countries. Well thank goodness Holybelly exists in one of my all-time favorite cities, Paris, and it has become one of my go-to spots when I get to travel here. This most recent visit, I had my usual Eggs with Sides (usually the sautéed mushrooms and green salad). My boyfriend had the Eggs with hash browns and beans so we could try a little bit of everything. We were hungrier than usual because we literally had just arrived in Paris from San Francisco, so despite our exhaustion from 15 hours of flights and layovers, we had our hearts set on making this our 1st stop! No time to waste! Food was amazing as usual, hit the spot perfectly, and our Flat Whites were rich and creamy. The only negative thing is that they don't have milk alternatives like almond milk or soy milk, but when in Europe, we don't get too picky because we know their dairy is much better quality anyway. It was wonderful to get to meet the owners Sarah and Nico this time as well, and they were incredibly welcoming and friendly when I decided to go up to them and introduce myself. You guys have a lifelong fan here in California, and I can't wait to return to Paris to checkout Holybelly 2 when it opens!!

I can see why the reviews for this place are so good! The atmosphere is absolutely adorable and reminds me of restaurants in the west village (NYC) or Williamsburg. Super trendy and farm to table vibe. My friend and I sat at the bar in the back which was near the open kitchen. This gave me the opportunity to watch the line cooks plate the dishes. You could tell they took their time and were extremely meticulous. I ordered the 2 fried eggs with a side of baked beans and mushrooms. The mushrooms were sautéed in thyme and parsley. They were the BEST MUSHROOMS IVE EVER HAD. So so so so good. I wouldn't recommend the beans. They were cooked well but I didn't care for the sauce it was in. My friend had the poached eggs with sausage and something else which I forget, but the sausage is shaped like a meatball. Again, very creative-- it was absolutely delicious. When I ordered the lemonade, I expected a glass of freshly made lemonade but it came in a bottle. While it was unexpected, the bottled lemonade was actually really good. Slightly carbonated and tangy! Definitely go here for breakfast or brunch! Holybelly is just a few blocks away from Du Pain Et des idees, an amazing and adorable bakery. I recommend going there after for dessert!

Omg I love this place. I understand the hype. I understand the lines. I understand. It's probably odd to line up for Australian brunch in the middle of Paris, but at least I didn't wait in line heh. The original plan was to get there at 9 AM but of course that didn't happen. We arrived around 9:45 AM and was lucky enough to get the last corner seating at the communal table. I basically wanted everything on the menu but my wallet would have been angry at me. So I settled for poached eggs, hash browns, and bacon - classic. Friend got poached eggs, mushrooms, and beans. Another friend got the savory pancakes but we forgot to ask what the champs were... So good. So so good. I loved the savory pancakes - considering usually the pre-dosed maple syrup would have been too much. But with the bacon and eggs, the combination was perfect. Hash was very average. Mushrooms and beans were great! I should have gone for that combination instead. Love the vibe, love that I could comfortably speak English, love the playlist, etc, etc. Shout out to the super cute host/waiter. Totally wish this was in the States instead. Second location please!

An absolute YES! And worth the wait. As an American I was a little miffed that we were eating brunch in Paris, which is such an American thing to do. But this Australian influenced spot is first of all adorable (and tight) inside and it was one of the best brunches I had! With Fresh OJ (of course), I had scrambled eggs with a side of hash brown and beans and salad. The hash brown was a solid ball, but was crunchy and delicious. Nothing like the greasy and overwhelming mess of potatoes they give you at the diners of NJ. My salad was so fresh! And the beans were chunky and a wonderful accompaniment to my eggs. FYI pancakes are over by the morning.

Best Americanized breakfast you can have while in France. They play American music too. This place reminds me of being in brooklyn, and having breakfast. You can choose two eggs any style with any two sides, varying from bacon, sautéed mushrooms, hash brown, and even salad. They give large portions for their food, and their cappuccino are heart shaped designed. My seating area was well lit, communal type high chair bench park type tables, where I met many Americans. Breakfast was delicious and healthy feeling. Highly recommended for egg lovers :)

I took far too many photos and loved this place far too much. In my quick few days back in Paris I went here two days in a row. So happy to find Holybelly and find an incredible place to dine. The owners have done a really great job at making this a place where you can really enjoy the laid back + beautiful environment, the friendly people and the DELICIOUS meals and coffee. Came for a late brunch one day, ended up having to wait in line longer than expected and unfortunately that meant we missed out on some of their breakfast options that ended at noon. Ended up getting their regular meat and eggs and it was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. I LOVE finding a place that does the basics, but better than you've ever had, and that's what I found here at Holybelly. The sausage was incredible, the eggs cooked perfectly, and the bacon and bread were so much more delicious than expected. Glad I ended up getting the really great flat white, and that we decided to come back earlier the following morning to get the pancakes & cheesecake. Ha Everything here was delicious and worth committing to. Try Holybelly! I can pretty much guarantee you won't regret it. Service, atmosphere and food come together perfectly here to give you just the right experience. Hope things go well for the owners and the new locations they're opening!

I found HB while researching restaurants in the area in preparation for out trip to Paris. Just a short walk from our rented flat, I decided to go line up at 930 for their 10am Saturday opening. I was really surprised to find a line 10 people deep. My son and I were seated at a communal table and service was fast and friendly. He ordered the short stack buttermilk pancakes and I ordered the 2 egg breakfast. I got my 2 eggs poached with a side of sausage, hashbrowns and I couldn't say no to their special side of the day--asparagus and spring peas in browned butter. The food was excellent. It's simple, but well made. It's great use of local ingredients with a little twist to make things interesting. The eggs were perfectly poached. The veggies were cooked perfectly, not overdone, and they were super fresh so you're getting them at the peak of flavor. The hashbrowns were more like potato strings shaped into a ball, but they were seasoned well and had a nice bit of crisp to them. The sausage--also shaped into a ball was flavorful--I could have eaten another one. Of course I tried my son's pancakes--not as fluffy as American pancakes, but still tasty (not oversweet either) and the syrup was yummy, this coming from a gal that really doesn't like typical pancake syrup. The fruit that was supposed to garnish the pancakes came on the side (don't judge) was an array of sliced apples, oranges and grapefruit. The gals taking care of us were super sweet. The hostess was also very nice and made a point to ask us how breakfast was before we left. As of today, they are working on their 2nd location. I know I'll be visiting at least one of their spots when I return.

I think I've tried to go to Holybelly three different times and each time the line was just way too long (I'm retired from waiting in long lines for food, even really good food, especially in a city like Paris where there are so many alternatives). I picked a weekday mid morning recently and correctly calculated the wait would not be so bad. After about 5 minutes my friend and I were seated and were treated to a hearty and delicious Anglo-take-with-French-ingredients breakfast. It is unarguably one of the best non-pretentious breakfasts in Paris. Everything about Holybelly is intentional - from the decor (minimalist with Edison bulbs) to the staff (friendly on an almost American level) to the menu (bilingual and changes monthly) to even the dang wifi card (it's a business card they hand you with the network password named after a Home Alone character) and on it tell you delicately and gently that you can't sit there with a laptop and work while there are people waiting for a table. It's a delicious, reasonably priced meal that you're probably going to have to wait for. Comme d'hab in this town. :-) PS great, locally roasted coffee

This is honestly the best brunch restaurant I have ever been to in the whole wide world. I came here on a Saturday morning while my boyfriend and I were on vacation in Paris. We had been told by my friend in Paris that we had to make it a priority to come here and I am so happy we did! You cannot make a reservation here and since it is such a popular and amazing restaurant, be prepared to wait. For example, my boyfriend and I got here around 10:30am and we had to wait about an hour and a half to eat, but it was really worth the wait. Also, what is nice about the wait is that the hostess tells you when you need to be back by, so you can go and walk around the neighborhood while waiting for you table. When my boyfriend and I were finally seated, we started with fresh orange juice and water and to eat, he got the savory pancake breakfast and I got scrambled eggs with hash browns and fries cheese. Our breakfast was BEYOND amazing!! Every bit tasted like heaven and we both ate every single thing on our plates! I loved the vibe of this restaurant! It was super trendy and fun. The employees are also very nice and helpful. This is the best breakfast place ever and if you are in Paris, you 100% have to come here!

Their fried eggs...eggceptionally awesome. Fried perfection. I ordered 4 of them, and i didn't want to share with friends. Pancakes were some of the best i've had. It took our group about 25 min to get here from the hotel and then another 45 min wait to be seated. IT WAS WORTH IT. Establishment is tiny and cramped. Service is slow (as they're so busy). However, breakfast really was that darn good. It is a def must go, as most of the other food in Paris wasn't as amazing. Get the fired eggs and get the pancakes...just...do..it...

Long lines on a Friday Parisian morning, but our 25 minutes was definitely worth the wait! Pancakes were delicious and definitely would recommend! Would love to come back next time I'm in Paris!!

Stumbled upon this gem while scouting through yelp for a place to eat. Located on the M4 line, the place is less than a 10 min walk from the metro. The area right outside the metro is filled with beggars, and street hawkers aggressively throwing themselves at you to sell their wares which is extremely annoying. Tucked in one of the quieter lanes, the joint was bustling with activity even on a week day. After over 30 minutes of waiting were were seated only to realize that brunch was only available till 1pm on weekdays (bummer!....was hoping to try their raved about fried egg with pancakes). Even though the speciality brunch menu isnt available, they do offer eggs made to order with sides thru the day... Bonus!! We got coffee with creme (there is something special about the European coffee.... Absolutely delicious!), I got the poached eggs with baked beans & housemade sausage patties & my brunch date got the fried eggs with chorizo & hash brown. We also got the warm goat cheese...mmmm... Divine! We wrapped our meal with the chocolate cake based at the rate they were being ordered by the other patrons. Everything tasted phenomenal with exception to the cake which was a let down after the scrumptious meal. I wasn't even at par with a store bought chocolate cake. My personal favorites were the chorizo & goat cheese. The price to the food portions weren't extravagant which is a plus as food in Paris is outrageously priced invariably. Will definitely have it on my "must return to" list for the next Paris trip!

The brunch of all brunches. When in Paris you need to visit holybelly, your belly will thank you. Sweet or savory, they've got you covered. I went for both, choosing the savory stack with champignons(mushrooms) for added flavor and texture. It's a simple breakfast dish with two pancakes, topped with two eggs and bacon. Their bacon is great btw, crisp and chewy, just as it should be :) As for drinks, I went with the London Fog, an earl grey tea drink topped with a light vanilla froth that was simple yet satisfying. So if you're in the area, breakfast, brunch, lunch or a really early dinner(they close at 5pm!), stop by holybelly. Tip: Lines will form, so try going at off-peak hours or you'll end up waiting bit. But it's worth it if you do!

I almost moaned in the middle of the Sunday brunch rush next to a wholesome family of four. That's how good it was. We showed up at 10:20, had our names written down by a friendly employee outside, and told to come back at 11. So of course we pregamed brunch with coffee and scones at Le Poutch down the street. Once inside, we were sat in the back at a large table on bar stools, squeezed so tight the servers had to wiggle in to take our orders. Accompanied by the Cuban jazz playing on the speakers, the chatter of the diners invigorated what was otherwise a rather quiet morning. - Eggs and sides: Scrambled, poached, they do it all well. You MUST get the champignons, I've never had better mushrooms in my life. (This was the source of the moan.) I witnessed my sisters' eyes roll up into her head after the first bite of her halloumi so I'm guessing that was great too. - Sweet stack: pancakes drizzled with syrup, whipped cream, tangerines, pears, pomegranate seeds, and my favorite, HAZELNUTS. What the hell. Who came up with this. Get them a nobel prize in chemistry for figuring out how to make things taste this damn good. The service is prompt, friendly, and bilingual; the interior warm, bustling, and energizing; the food, worthy of several hours of extreme bloating after eating way more than you should. Do it. Come here. Eat everything. No regrets. You're not in Paris to diet.

BELIEVE THE HYPE! I came across Holybelly by searching the best brunch spots in Paris. Holybelly appeared at the very top and I didn't have to look any further. My husband and I went around 11:30am on Wednesday morning. We were anticipating a long line since the reviews stated that. When we got there, there were 3-4 groups ahead of us and we only waited about 10 minutes. We were happy, because we didn't have to wait long and also, because we wanted to get in before 12pm so that we could order pancakes! So here's the details: Ambience- Very nice restaurant with great vibes, good music, and nice waitress/waiter (they speak English, so don't worry English speaking tourists!) Food- We ordered the following: Sweet pancakes- comes with several fruits, but tasted so delicious. The pancakes literally melted in your mouth. My husband is a big pancake fanatic and he said it was the best pancakes he's ever had! That should say something! Two fried eggs with bacon and sausage- Sausage and the bacon were crispy and on point! The fried eggs were good too. Everything was delicious and I couldn't be more happier stepping foot into Holybelly. It changed our whole brunch life for good! We definitely have to come back to Paris just to come here! If you weren't holy before, after eating here, you will have some "holiness" to you when you leave! Don't even think about it, COME HERE TODAY!

Best pancakes I ever had! Went to try this cool place during my trip in Paris. The line was quite long but since I was alone, I was able to get a seat right away. After all the French cuisine that I had, I really wanted something comforting such as eggs & bacon. Looked at the menu and the savoury stack was just perfect. Fluffy pancakes with a bourbon sauce topped with a fried egg and bacon. The bacon was cooked just right...not overly crispy so that you can still taste the juice of the bacon. Service was also friendly. You can also ask for the wifi password :) Will definitely go back if I return to Paris!

I heard about this place through a podcast and then a friend recommended it to me so I had to go. We arrived a bit after 10 and there was a line. It it moved pretty quickly. Ordered a latte and it was good- I found that a lot of places in Paris didn't do lattes well but they did. My friend and I both ordered the savory pancakes, which is two pancakes with two sunny side eggs on top and bacon. It sounds like a lot, but the portions were reasonable so we both finished our plates without feeling stuffed. The place is busy but the staff are friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend!

We get off the metro, walk down the street, turn a corner and see a line. We knew we had found Holybelly. There was a short line so we decided to wait. I was excited to hear everyone (the patrons and staff) speaking English, so it was a nice break. In any case, the service was really fast and efficient; something we actually appreciate in America. I ordered the eggs, a side of sausage (the sausage is so good I could eat a whole platter of it and be happy) and hash browns. My sister originally wanted to order the pancakes but they ran out! Bummer. I love France and I love the people in France. So here's my apology in advance to those who speak badly of Holybelly. In America, we generally like instant gratification--order food, get food, eat, and leave, lol. So if you wanna people watch and chew on your croissant or pain au chocolat (yum) for 45 minutes then maybe this place isn't for you. This place is always busy, so they're obviously doing something right. ;)

THANK YOU HOLYBELLY!!! By far, the best damn breakfast I've EVER had! You guys changed everything for me! I'll never look at breakfast the same! It's truly good because they care! They definitely live by their motto!!! I can't wait to go back to Paris to get my fix and to see HB 2.0! Guys!!!!! Hit me up! Let's talk business! Please!!! Macaulay Culkin, where you at?!?!

delicious food!! But they don't have small dishes, my case is that I am really hungry, but can't finish 2 big plates, therefore I might need something small after main dish.. But pity, there isn't such things .. The Waiting line is Crazy, and they choose customer to sit in by table style of free seat, not if

This is apparently where the locals eat, as this cafe was very busy. However, as customary in Paris, there were unusual hours. The kitchen closes at 2:00 and there's a limited menu after breakfast. Service was excellent and the staff had a team like atmosphere, so everyone was my waiter. I ordered the chicken on a stick over noodles. To my surprise it was also served with quinoa. I thought the meal was too oily and I had to send my chicken back because it wasn't nearly cooked well enough. Near the end of my meal, the staff started to set out its lunch, that they eat together. I take it they have a very familial relationship. I wanted to try their food because it looked so good, but was too shy to ask. If I were back in Paris, I'd give this place another try, despite my food not being that great.

This place came highly recommended to us during our trip to Paris. It was quite unexpected, from the hidden alley way it was nestled in, to the English menus, American music. I almost felt like I was in New York. Only, the food is much better. Run down of my plate: -2 fried eggs: they were so crispy on the outside. I loved how fresh the eggs were. -sautéed mushrooms: seasoned and cooked perfectly -hash browns: okay, I should have ordered some to go. It was a incredibly golden+crispy, thick, round patty, that was so soft and gooey in the middle. This is the best hash brown I've had to date. I'm sad thinking about how I can't have any right now. -bread: I normally wouldn't eat the bread or butter or typical American breakfast spots, but French butter, ugh! I doused the bread in globs of butter. Then dipped it in my runny yokes. Mmm mmm! -"ketchup": I felt bad asking for it in a French restaurant, and when I had asked, the guy responded with, "I'll bring you out version of it." So "their version" was some sort of freshly lightly puréed/ still slightly chunky tomato, maybe with some red pepper? Concoction. Did it taste like ketchup? No. Did I love it? Yes. It tasted healthier then Heinz ketchup. My friend had a stack of pancakes. She raved about how she didn't feel heavy after eating a stack of carbs. The only downfall has to be the wait. We had to wait outside the restaurant for about 45 mins before we got a table. My friend actually had to walk down the alley to grab a coffee while I waited in line. But, when we were in, we were in yummy breakfast heaven. Hey HolyBelly staff, can you ship a couple dozens of those hash browns my way?

Absolutely stunning! Great service, food and atmosphere! Our first meal in Europe/Paris! Did not disappoint!

So good that we came back the next day, the first day we walked in and had to wait about 45 minutes outside. WORTH IT. We went for the pancakes but we missed the breakfast time-frame and they're very strict about that. Opted for the scrambled eggs with baked beans and hashbrowns. So good, the eggs are really moist and the baked beans are phenomenal-for baked beans. Second day, we got there for opening so that we wouldn't have to wait. I ordered the same exact thing with an additional side of halloumi cheese. One the best breakfast's I've ever had, you have to come here. The restaurant is really trendy and the atmosphere is lovely as well, will definitely be coming back next time I'm in Paris!

Incredible brunch stop near Canal st. Martin We queued up for 15 mins, were then told they were so busy to come back in another 35mins - so glad we chose to come back.... They do a few daily specials, but we took the advice of the super friendly and professional waiter, essentially rushing us to order but in a friendly way to keep other customers coming in thru the door. They do their eggs well, so pick poached, boiled or fried, then a few sides. I took bacon, goats cheese (rich and creamy, you don't need a lot!) and sausage. Grab a coffee, tea or beer and you're set for a relaxing afternoon.

For 3 euros I had to drink it but it was so bad I need to cover the taste with a lot of milk- that you have to ask for. Besides that the place is adorable and the people are really friendly. Just don't get the filter coffee The picture is the pretty latte that my friend got: she said it was good

We visited Holybelly on our last trip to Paris! We were looking for a French breakfast and ended up at American one ; ). Nevertheless, it was a good choice! It was very chilled outside and the queue was quite long, but then we smelled pancakes & coffee and we knew that there is no way back ; ). We waited about 30-40 minutes until we were seated. The service is really nice, but not as nice as the food they serve! We ordered pancakes with bacon, maple syrup and egg, and also scrambled eggs with goat's cheese, tomato and bacon. Additionally, we ordered coffees - flat white and cappuccino. It was really good flat white! Cappuccino was ok. My scrambled eggs were great, and so were all other stuff we ordered. However, the one thing missing there was more variety on savourly breakfast options. Also, it would be perfect if they had soya or almond milk. I guess it's really hard to get there at weekends. We were there on Friday morning and it was really busy. It's good to go there very early or a bit later when everyone is done with breakfast (around 11-12am).

Such a lovely place to have Brunch! If you are sick of the boring French kitchen, you should go here for some pancakes or others. I loved everything in this Hipster place and my pancakes were so fluffy and tasty. We arrived at 9am and got the last two free seats so be sure to come early enough otherwise you need to stand in line!

It was a very nice experience. The crew was polite and very social. The menu is available in both French and English. Both the hot chocolate and Chai latte were very tasty. We arrived at 10am (Friday) and did not have to queue, when we left a small queue started outside.

Saw all the reviews and wanted to check it out, but...closed till Nov 14! Too bad it wasn't listed. Put the stars just to let everyone know.

Saturday: about a 30 minute wait (party of 2) Greeted friendly enough, got seated at a shared table... then everything changed when the fire nation attacked (we decided to share the weekend special). The disposition of our server immediately changed. It was like we were all of a sudden inherently less valuable and deserved worse treatment. We weren't super hungry and just wanted to sample their brunch fare (we are brunch fiends!) -- le weekend special was €17.50 btw The food was good, but the vibes we got really diminished our experience here. Even though we still had food on our plate (it was a lot of food) we were asked three times if we were finished. We didn't see this happen with the other customers at our shared table. The last straw was being told "we have a lot of people waiting so..." Basically we got the boot. We don't get it; we didn't stay exceptionally long, we weren't rude or super needy, but got mean vibes and kicked out on the hour. On a scale from 1-5 food: 4 vibes: 2 averages out at 3 stars

Note this location doesn't have brunch food (that's holybelly 5). This one has apps and heavier dinner food. We wited about 20 minutes to be seated on a Saturday around 2pmish. The ambiance is lovely - comfy seats and cute decor. It's a small menu but the food looks good. Very popular amongst tourists and the staff speaks English.

Embrace your inner hipsterrific self. Holybelly is a definite experience in Paris. The wait isn't so bad. California vibe. The music is awesome. The coffee is good, not great, but good. The food is a bit hit or miss. Decent chilaquile. They drowned my pancakes in maple syrup. If you order it, get the syrup on the side. Lovely, crispy bacon. THe one major disappointment, no bloody mary. BOO!

This would have been perfect if it wasn't for the nearly 2 hour wait for our table - although saying that we were given a time slot & our servers were very friendly, I'm not going to dock a star for this as our food was 5 star but I'm docking a star for our bill being brought to the table before asking for it, felt rushed to leave... ... They were just serving breakfast & eggs with sides when we came to dine, not lunch which was weird considering it was lunch time, however my partners poached eggs (best poached eggs she's ever had) with bacon and mushrooms was lovely. I had the poached eggs with sausage patty (home made with lovely fennel seeds) and home made hash brown, again amazing and baked beans (not keen) would come again defiantly, if we could book ahead.

I had the best breakfast in Paris here. Staff are very fast and helpful. I get the regular eggs, mushrooms and hash brown ball which was to die for! I would never forget my experience here.

My husband and I set out early our first morning in Paris to get to Holybelly and save ourselves from a wait list experience,especially since it was cold and damp. Mission fail. Let's just say, men and directions don't mix well sometimes. I digress. Holybelly is on a small side street...I saw the crowd about mid block and my heart sank just a little. Wait list here we come. 45 minutes to kill. So we killed it at the corner Brasserie, along with 2 cups of cafe noir. Back to HolyBelly; we wait just another ten minutes and voila(!), we are seated in the communal table with about ten other hungry diners. The dilly on the goods. I got the savory stack and my directions expert, the Sweet. My stack consisted of pancakes, eggs, and bacon...in that order-topped with their homemade bourbon butter and maple syrup. My OCD kicked in so I asked them to separate my pancake from the savories. Nope, no can do, but they did give me a little plate to do so myself so all good. Bottom line, all were good but will have to come back and try it out once again to seal the deal for me. As for my husband, he was happy as an American clam and would come back in a heartbeat, wait list, cold and all. Ambiance was high energy, bustling, and super friendly/nice-especially the guy taking all the hungry people's names. Bless his heart and give him a raise...he deserves it! GO. But go EARLY.

Paris is lighter & friendlier because Holybelly's heart beats inside of it. Good people, good food, good drinks and an extremely rare sense for simple & beautiful things. Yes, you'll have to wait a while if you show up for brunch on the weekend at noon, but you have the Canal St-Martin close by to stroll around and get even hungrier. You'll need it.

Came here with a couple friends on a Sunday morning. Place opens at 10 and we were there at 10.20 and had to wait for an hour.... I got the savory pancakes and they were delicious. I also treated myself to a chai and a flat white while waiting and both were good. Everyone was honestly friendly throughout and I would have considered giving this place a 5 stars, but 20 mins after we've sat down and after we've finished eating and were just taking a breath, one of the servers basically asked us to pay and leave because there's a line out the door and he wants to seat other people. I totally understand that the line is super long, but honestly based on how much we had waited outside, we did deserve an extra few minutes after we've finished our plates....

The only star that I did not give was for the 45 minutes wait we had to do outside to be served. Haha Which should be a good thing since this is a famous place. We had the weekend special and i cant tell you how amazing it was. They said the special keeps changing and i wonder what it will be this time. I cant wait to go back in there. Friendly staff and excellent food.

My husband and I were tried of croissant and coffee.... Then we found this AWESOME place. After we had breakfast the first time, we couldn't stop going there. If you are looking for quality coffee, this is the right place. The staff speaks English, big plus :) They all were extremely gentle, we feel so welcomed every morning. The place is cozy. Try to arrive before 9am so you don't have to wait outside. We had Pancakes, and Benedict eggs. There is the option of having a coffee standing up in the bar :) Good job guys!

Holy belly. Holy shit. Holy grail. Never had a better breakfast. Looks so simple but it's something I crave. First day in France, open yelp and this was number 1. Long line but it goes by fast since you sit next to random people. I got the savory pancakes. That bourbon syrup pulled everything together. If you get a chance to sit by the kitchen you can see two females running the show. Kitchen is like the size of a dorm room but somehow they shell out dishes like crazy. My belly did feel holy after for sure.

Holy Bely is certainly a pilgrimage that any Aussie going cafe love must make when in Paris! Seriously, if you're craving some good food, amazing coffee and brilliant hospitality that will give you those nice warm fuzzies to fight off any looming home sickness, go to Holy Bely!!! I could go into detail, but there's no real point as there is not enough superlatives that I can throw at it! Will definitely be back every time I'm back in Paris!

This place is a must when in Paris! There was a line but moved fast and the food was worth the wait. The savory plate was yummy, the sausage was to die for. Great atmosphere, a little ways away but so worth it!

Servers are very sweet. They move at lightning speed!! Only come if u are craving American brunch. No "French" food here. Many of the diners were not French. I ordered the weekend special. Avocado toast, salad, and eggs (cooked however you want). The salad was so crisp and the lemony flavor of the dressing helped balance the rest of the savory things on my plate. Avocado toast was good but bread was a bit too hard. My husband got pancakes with bacon and eggs. The eggs were sunny side up and placed on top of the pancakes. It was a good combination of savory (bacon and bacon bits sprinkled over everything) and sweet (maple syrup and a bourbon whipped cream). Overall very good. Again, not really French food, but a great American style brunch.

Awesome hipster style place! Stopped in for breakfast after searching around. Great prices, service and music! Got seated right away on a Sunday morning. Will def visit again!

In such case you were wondering what the "Comp" is for the Savory Stack, it's added mushrooms This place is an absolute MUST. I walked 2 miles to get here & I would have walked more.... or taken a Uber :)

A great place to get a good, filling pancake breakfast. Paris doesn't have a lot of places for American style brunch food but Holybelly fills that gap. Delicious stuff! Be back soon
