La Bête Noire

An absolutely delightful gem in the city - the quality of the produce they use is excellent, with the simplicity of the menu allowing the ingredients to shine. Their baked goods and pantry selection is excellent, too.

La Bête Noire in Paris is a cozy Port-Royal café that feels like a local secret, with a friendly buzz and genuinely kind service that makes you want to come back. The menu stays simple with things like granola bowls, avocado toast, and rice pudding, perfect for a slow morning. It gets busy, so popping in early helps if you want a seat. A chill spot to enjoy good coffee, good bites, and good vibes in Paris.

A lovely coffee & brunch restaurant. Very good coffee, and the best cinnamon roll I have ever tasted. I’d highly recommend La Bête Noire.

Simple hearty food, single menu with 2 options every day based on well sourced food, in a setting with very few tables. A little expensive as you have to take the 3 course menu at 30E, and we didn't like the desserts much in the end.

La Bête Noire is a wonderful little café/restaurant in front of Port Royal. I have only been for café and pastries (twice), so I can only comment on that. Great quality coffee. They have some massive fresh scones that are very nice as well. There is a selection of freshly baked cakes and other pattisseries. I really like it. Customer service is prime. The staff members always explain everything in detail and are super nice; always a good conversation. The environment is nice. It’s calm. They have temporary art exhibitions from upcoming artists on their walls (for sale), which is interesting. 100% recommended !!

It's a small cozy cafe with a unique design that serves breakfast and lunch using homemade artisan goods and high quality ingredients. the owner and workers are really friendly and the services are great. Whether you're omnivore or vegetarian the food is available with choices. (Breakfast) Personally I recommend the "Special Fried Eggs with bacon jam" it's a simple breakfast with a couple toast and eggs but the jam is what enhances the dish.

Hidden gem! Absolutely amazing food! We absolutely did not expected to taste such a unique combinations of flavors. Small family restaurant, but worth to be in e Michelin Guide

Amazing little gem. The owner Maria is a gracious lady who explained the menu. Typically there are 2 menus everyday. A vegetarian and a meat dish to choose from. Saw Maria herself prepare the dish for me. This restaurant is an undiscovered gem but well known with the locals in the area. Would visit again in a heartbeat
