Paris Coffee Shop

YUM! Yes you should go here, you can stop looking for the perfect breakfast/brunch spot now. The chicken fried steak ranks #1 for best I’ve had in my life and I’m a native Texan who grew up on the stuff. The honey butter chicken biscuits are delicious and you can taste the homemade quality in every bite. My only recommendation is to ask for extra honey butter! The espresso martini is okay, I like Press cafes better BUT the Chai espresso martini is delicious! Totally recommend that one! We also had a side of bacon which was just okay. We sat at the bar and had fast and Greta service from Ashley P. 100/10 we would come here again!

I’m upset at myself for waiting so long to come here. Of course I’ve heard about it and it was on my list for so long and finally gave it a chance. It wasn’t too busy so that may have played a part in it but still, the food was AMAZING! They have very interesting options for all preferences. I had the brisket Benedicts and were really really good. My friend had the chicken and waffles and the chicken was extra crispy and was great too. Our waiter took his time and was very patient and helpful so that was very much appreciated. I cannot wait to come back and try other dishes in their menu. I totally recommend it and now I understand why they’re always busy.

Great place for breakfast or brunch in the Magnolia area. The building has been renovated to look more closely like it did when it first opened, which makes it feel like a retro diner. The service was great and we got our food real quick. The chicken and waffles were great! They also have pies and other pastries for dessert. We came on a Sunday around 12, so it was fairly busy. We ended up having to wait 25 minutes to get in, but once were seated we got served real quick!

My husband and I visited Paris Coffee Shop our first morning in Fort Worth and really enjoyed it! My husband got the mocha latte and found it less sweet than my caramel latte. He had to add a bit of sugar, so if you're looking for something less sweet, mocha is the way to go! Maybe it was just the one he got though. The atmosphere was great and our waitress was so sweet, meeting our needs instantly. Even giving us water to go along with our coffee, which was so refreshing! Our only "complaint" would be that the name is a bit misleading. We thought it would be like a regular coffee shop with a bunch of different flavors and specialty drinks. HOWEVER, I wouldn't have it any other way. It was genuinely a nice change of pace that we might not have tried out if we had known it was more like a cafe. Also, I have wished many times that coffee shops had real food sooo... No actual complaint. Absolutely loved being able to get out of the sun and chat over delicious lattes!

This lovely location is conveniently placed right in the corner of magnolia Street. Easy access in and out with great parking. I took the mother for brunch after a medical procedure, and we were welcomed beautifully at the door by the owner and the host. we sat down and had the loveliest breakfast. We had their healthiest pancakes, which turned out to be very delightful. We had oatmeal with lots of yummy sprinkles on top with fruits and different things. Their coffee was on point, and the whole experience was Phenomenal. Please support your local businesses, take care of your waitstaff and enjoy a wonderful place to brunch.

I only give a 4 star due to the food was a little too salty for me. However, it was perfect for my husband, so it is a 4.5⭐️! The service people were pleasant and attentive. Our glasses never went empty. We both were well filled. The atmosphere was nostalgic and current. Very beautiful mix of history and hope. We sat at the counter which went half way around the place. I gazed around the room to see wait-staff and customers with smiles and giggles. People enjoying the experience. The restrooms and restaurant areas were clean. It was overall a great decision for today!

Drip coffee is good. Only alternative milk option is oat, unfortunately. Service is very good, staff is great! Was a little under whelmed by the breakfast. Seemed like what other got looked better. Definitely try it out. Good for the price !

I was so happy to find this diner. I brought my relative to Fort Worth for a doctor’s appointment and looked for a breakfast spot nearby. We were so pleasantly surprised by this diner with a great waitstaff and a clean atmosphere. It’s hard to find good diners, and even harder to find ones with waffles…my favorite! Everything was delicious the bacon was nice and crispy, plenty of fruit, butter, fresh whipped cream and syrup. I can’t recommend this place enough! I’ll definitely return next time I’m in town.

First time here! Nice vibe. Had the Brucko Breakfast: scrambled eggs, bacon, ham, wheat toast $17.95, Small fresh fruit cup $4.95, tea $3.00 Tax $2.14 Total $28.04 BEFORE TIP it was nice and all but just a bit pricey to me. Must have just been me. Service was good.

Visited Paris Coffee Shop for breakfast with friends, a place we've frequented several times before. This visit, however, we noticed things were much less busy than we are used to seeing. I ordered pancakes with a side of bacon, a simple standard breakfast meal. The service was commendable - friendly and swift. However, the food didn't quite meet expectations. The pancakes were dense, lacking the fluffiness one expects, and served lukewarm. The real letdown was the bacon. Only two strips, which were barely warm and seemed past their prime, leading me to question if the shop's current downturn in business and food quality are related. When I checked with my friends about their experiences, one who had the John Denver omelette was content with her meal, but both echoed my sentiments regarding the bacon - cold and leathery, which didn't do justice to what should be a breakfast highlight. I mean a good plate of bacon can change your whole day! This visit has me rethinking future trips to Paris Coffee Shop. I hope this is just a temporary dip in quality, but the noticeable decrease in customer numbers might be a sign of broader issues. Here's hoping they can sort it out swiftly to regain their previous charm and quality.

We stopped in for lunch. Ordered Country Club and French Dip sandwiches, both of which were tasty and well presented, though it looked like we got the bottom of the bag as far as chips go. This is still a warm, welcoming venue with quick service and attentive wait staff. Ordered slices of chocolate and apple pie to go, remembering the great eating experience the pies represented when Mike was in charge. However, they turned out to be a big disappointment. Fillings were marginal and the crust was so thick that it could survive dropping from a helicopter.

A friend invited me to breakfast, and we chose to eat here. Our server was incredible: friendly, warm, and always attentive to our needs. She was never a bother and always met our needs without having to ask. I had three biscuits smothered with gravy and a side order of hash browns. Absolutely delicious! In spite of how busy the restaurant was, we weren't rushed to leave after finishing our meal. The restaurant seemed clean and well-mantained. Definitely enjoy the newly remodeled interior. Please eat here. You won't be disappointed!

I had an early morning physician's appointment in the medical district. Since it was breakfast time, we decided to drop by one of our fav places for breakfast, Paris Coffee Shop. Each time customers come in, it's like they're family. All are warmly welcomed. We were happy parking was available and there was no wait because my wife and I were both hungry. Both of us ordered the two-egg breakfast. My wife decided on scrambled eggs, bacon, and hash browns. I ordered over easy eggs, sausage patties, hash browns, biscuit and a side of grits. I love grits at breakfast. Of course, piping hot coffee was ordered. What's breakfast without coffee? Our breakfast platters arrived quickly. Paris Coffee Shop has some awesome short order cook who have perfected their craft. Both of our platters were served and cooked to perfection. Yummy breakfast. Thank you, Paris Coffee Shop for an awesome visit.

Come here to have a classic breakfast and a good coffee or brunch cocktail. Come here with a group of friends and/or family and wait it out if there is a wait. This space is so big and folks are coming in and out so just be a little patient because the food is delicious here and you will leave satisfied. Service was exceptional. I never had less than half a cup of coffee at any given time. Waitstaff are kicking tail here and serving all consistently. We were in a booth nearest the bar side and it was fun to see people walk in, take a seat at the diner, and get settled. I noticed a mix of regulars/locals and folks like us who just walked by and decided this would satisfy our need to slow down and eat some breakfast before exploring the rest of Fort Worth.

Paris is good. It's a greasy spoon diner. It's one of those place you go when you get homesick The wait staff is friendly and the breakfast is good. I'm a simple man with simple pleasures! The place was popping during our last visit over the weekend. We had a nice cozy booth to enjoy our breakfast!

This place is more like a 3.5 out of 5 stars. I've seen this place multiple times, but actually what drove me to get breakfast here was a post on Instagram. I think we came here close to lunch time and it was still fairly packed. When we tried to get a seat, they said it would be like a 25 minute wait. However, we found two seats at the counter and that was first come first serve and took it. We ended up getting a breakfast sandwich and smothered pork and potato dish. Both items were good, and i think i out of the two, the pork/egg dish was the better one out of the two. The portions were really big and i think for the price its not a terrible deal. The food came out fairly quick and service was prompt. guess that's one of the perks while sitting at the counter. I know this place has a long history in fort worth. Believe it was opened in 1926, and i wonder if they'll do anything special for its 100th birthday.

Came here after I ran the Cowtown half marathon and had the most ass shattering meal. I undoubtedly consumed close to 1000 calories in this one sitting which was perfect for the occasion. Our server was so sweet and accommodating and the vibe of the place was exactly what you would expect from a brunch spot in fort worth. I even took some inspiration from the paintings in there for my own creative ventures. Would recommend and would go again.

Friendly service, lots of breakfast options, and Fort Worth staple! Parking is very limited and be prepared to wait for a table during peak times. But solid spot to check out.

Great diner that's been rind for ages. They had a recent renovation but still the same food, feelings and service! I LOVE the wait staff there.

We have been a few times and never had a bad meal but also don't understand the big hype. I appreciate it's a cute local place in a trendy part of town, def will give it that. Great for breakfast but not a very big menu (in my opinion). I have never had lunch there. Service was great and luckily no wait at the time we went this go round. Usually it's a wait. Normally can be a bit loud and a rather small place. We have been seated at a table, booth, and bar and I really enjoyed the bar. Again, don't get me wrong, it's a great place for a simple breakfast and haven't had a bad experience yet but I personally like to have options when I comes to breakfasts and feel this is a bit limited. Last visit I had the eggs Benedict but didn't take a picture of it in the brunch menu so don't recall the formal dish name. The sauce was great and honestly, probably one of the best cooked poached eggs I've had in a very long time. My husband had the Denver omelette and loved it. Fluffy eggs and plenty of filling in the omelette. Coffee is great, a bit on the strong side every time. I have always gotten an americano as well as brewed coffee and the Americano is perfection every time.

such a cute diner and the oldest in fort worth! i loved the caramel iced coffee and the ambiance was so cute! the monte cristo was the perfect blend of sweet, smoky, and savory! also service was awesome! our waiter was so attentive and caring!

Gotta love a good, reliable diner - especially one with friendly, happy employees, great food, and a location right around the corner. And I hear they have great pie. I need to try that sometime. Today, hubby had the chicken fried steak and eggs breakfast (gravy on the side because he doesn't know what's really good), and I got the 2 biscuits and gravy plate with a side of their Caldo de Res soup which was soul-warming and chock full of huge slices of chicken breast meat, veggies, and super fresh avocado and topped off with deliciously seasoned crispy tortilla strips.

We had just flown in from Denver to visit some family and our aunt brought us straight to the Paris Coffee Shop. She herself had been wanting to try it and this gave her the perfect reason to stop in for some breakfast. We were greeted at the door by a nice gentleman that chatted with us about Denver for a second and then seated us in a booth. I liked the seating because then I could people watch around the room. The shop was super cute with their teal colored diner style furniture and open kitchen. The menu wasn't overwhelming but had enough options on it for everyone. I went big with the bucko breakfast. Everything was cooked perfectly and you get a ton of food for $16. My husband had to help me eat some of it. Great breakfast, cute shop and had a fantastic server who I think her name is Jenny. I hope I got that right. She had purple makeup on.

Perfect spot for a Sunday morning brunch in Fort Worth. If you love local business, this is a must! Our server, KC(Casey?), was PHENOMENAL. He had a genuine personality and had so many good recommendations and snippets of facts about the food. We shared a cup of chili, chicken fried steak plate, biscuits with gravy, and coconut cream pie. We left STUFFED and so satisfied. Definitely stop in when visiting Fort Worth!

If you're looking for wonderful breakfast selections or lunch selections, Paris Coffee Shop is an excellent option. A neighborhood gem that's been around for many many years. While the current ownership is fairly new, the food is still yummy. This visit I ordered the chicken and dumplings. Not bad, but I have to admit, not as good as the old recipe. Give them a try. Breakfast is always gr

Went to old coffee shop for 20 years. Mostly for Thursday chicken and dumplings, baked corn and mashed potatoes. Also love the grilled chicken livers and gravy. I've been retired for 13 years and was excited to return to new coffee shop. Very disappointing. Breakfast is "Meh". Nothing special. Dumplings were nothing like the old recipe that was the way my grandmother made them. If I went there for the first time it would be fine but nothing as good as the old.

I had breakfast here with friends on a weekday morning. This place is pretty cool and has an old-fashioned diner/cafe aesthetic that used to be the standard everywhere in the U.S. but has become rarer and rarer. My friends and I sat at the counter (bar, technically I guess, since they have a liquor license and do serve booze), and the service was quick and attentive. l ordered the Chicken Fried Steak Breakfast, and it was phenomenal. It would've been a great standalone Chicken Fried Steak, but this place really knows how to do their breakfast items that came along with it. My only regret was that I didn't try the pies I could see from my seat at the counter - they looked great, I just didn't save any room. In all, I enjoyed this meal and will come back.

My first visit to this landmark coffee shop near downtown Fort Worth. Our waitress was efficient and friendly: breakfast was delicious. If I were in the area, and hungry, I'd consider going in, but only after checking out other options.

Great place for breakfast! First time visit with wife and another couple. We love the new changes and remodeling. The staff are the same sweet and kind people we heard about before. They prices are good for the portions and quality of the food. No one had anything left on their plates I can say that much. I got the bucko breakfast with double ham, hash browns and a whole grain pancake. It was filling and delicious! I would come back here often if I lived closer that's for sure.

I like old style cafes. Didnt really like the JohnWayne eggs Benedict, mainly because I wasn't expecting something besides the usual dish when I ordered it. Biscuits instead of English muffins, brisket, eggs, with a hollondaise/salsa(?) mix, kind of an orange color. Honestly it was tasty but I probably should have ordered a more traditional type of breakfast. The only real downside for me is it's a bit pricey.

Fresh and tasty. Hostess and Waitresses very nice and attentive. They could use help busting tables but they stayed on point with all aspects of service. I just don't think the waitress should also have to bust their own tables. Overall, warm welcoming spot with lots of choices and good food.

A single egg is $2.95 and that pretty much sums up the place. The menu is incredibly limited and doesn't have the "classics". It's amazing how pricey this place is, and it's so unnecessary- not to mention the food is a 6 at BEST. The owners are grasping ever last nickel from customers and it's a very strange feeling. We left feeling scammed and still kinda wanting a good breakfast.... Like perhaps from the OG Paris shop. Only pros- good location and our table was clean.

Very nice and old school diner. Right away - seated quickly & the staff are very friendly. The theme of the diner - I vibe with. But most notably - the food was all really good and a fair price. Everyone around us seemed to be enjoying as well. Overall a fun atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

I just moved to Fort Worth and this is my third time here. This is a vibrant bustling classic breakfast diner with great service and phenomenal food, complete with a cabinet of pies. Plan accordingly if you have a group, it gets busy.

Tried this place out for brunch today and will 100% be back!! It is such a cute breakfast spot both inside and outside and has a chill yet nice ambiance. Portion sizes were great for the price! The hash browns were so crispy which I loved and the biscuit was amazing! The omelette was also amazing and we ended the meal with a chocolate pie! They have rotating pies and I definitely want to try the other ones because the chocolate one was so creamy and rich! Our waitress was super nice with giving us suggestions and bringing extra sauces we asked for! Super cute brunch spot and food was awesome!

Paris Coffee Shop embodies why Fort Worth is Fort Worth! The retro 70s counter tops gives the spot an eclectic feel and the staff makes it that much more welcoming. Fresh of the plane, I went with the Brioche French Toast topped with fresh fruit. The plate was truly loaded down, however the Brioche was a little thick for me. My server was kind enough to swap it out for a Belgian waffle which pretty freaking good if you ask me. Paris does it in style with warm maple syrup. As sides my meal included eggs and bacon. Prior to leaving i picked up a cowboy cookie for desert. Overall pricing was pretty on par for an average breakfast meal, though I didn't get to pay as the server mentioned "it was already paid for!" Whoever you are who paid for my meal, thank you and know i kept paying it forward!

This place is good. There just wasn't anything that made it outstanding. The diner feel sets apart from other breakfast places a bit though. I got a cold brew and really did not like it. Tasted like water with a tad of coffee and creamer. The rest of the food was good though. Staff was really friendly though and seemed to know their regulars.

The omelette (Denver omelette) was very tasty and filling. Also, the waiter was very attentive. I will definitely be back, the best place for breakfast in Ft. Worth.

Great spot for breakfast or brunch! Parking was a little challenging in a larger vehicle. No wait despite it being 8:30 on a Saturday morning! We got the mimosas carafe and all 4 of us enjoyed a full glass plus there was an extra, a generous portion at a great price! I ordered the chicken and waffles and thoroughly enjoyed the large portion size and the flavors were on point. Every else's food looked great as well and they all raved!

My favorite go-to place after a night shift. One of the few restaurants that open as early as 7 AM & the servers are always friendly. The area and tables are decently clean and I feel like they care about their customers. Whenever I ask for favors such as extra butter to-go or melted butter on the side, the servers are quick and helpful. I've tried a few of their items, but I think I enjoy their pancake and eggs combo, as well as their make your own omelette meal most. Simple, but delicious!

I got my order to go, do want to go back for a dine-in meal. The server working the counter area was very nice. I wanted the Brioche French Toast however it was 11am. He was able to get my order in time for the French Toast. And everything was good, the bacon crisp and the French Toast was enjoyable with the fresh berries. The berries were a good compliment to this meal, just the right amount of sweet taste. The French Toast was a bit soggy, although not so much that I did not want to eat. And it was only on the center edge, still good flavor

We were a group of 7 on a busy Sunday morning. The staff was unflappable, accommodating us. Service was excellent!! Food was delicious and served quickly. They were like a well oiledachime but with a friendly charm

I'm putting up another review as my previous one is old. I went here this morning because I had business in Fort Worth. I guess I had hopes that the restaurant went back to the pre-2020 menu, which I loved. They have not. If anything, the new owners have swung even further away from the original menu. I got two pancakes with sausage. It was one of the cheapest items on the menu at $8.95. The pancakes were large but dry and flavorless. The sausage patties were thin and had a hard shell. The coffee was delicious. I noticed the other menu prices were ridiculously high. On the other hand, the decor is very nice and 5 waitresses remained from the old days. However, I'm sad to say I can't imagine anything that would make me want to eat there next time I'm in town.

My partner and I are obsessed with diners so when we saw Paris Coffee Shop, we had to try it. First of all, the aesthetic and look of the place is perfection and just our vibe. The food was so good, but the cocktails were our favorite! Our server was great and even though it was super busy, they got us a table real quick!

I'll bet the great coffee being served today is better than the daily grind of decades past. Paris Coffee Shop has been on my,to-eat at list ,for 10,20 plus years. Unfortunately, I didn't get by before they announced closing a couple of years ago. Then, I saw where it had re-opened. I didnt realize it had been totally remodeled by the new owner. Its very nice inside. I would go so far to say,if this place was close to me I would come here every morning. Pleasant. Good Food Good Prices for 2022 Excellent service-our waitress is a Ft Worth native Very pleasant Atmosphere Great coffee for a diner and they keep it coming. I highly recommend you... Go! As an aside, it could easily have made five Stars but, my granddaughter's waffle was average. Could have been a little more flavorful and crisp on the outside. Again other than the check-in photo I'm having difficulty posting other shots! Darn

Very friendly staff greeted us upon entering the coffee shop. Ordered the two egg plate scrambled with cheese and onion. Oddly the purple onions were not sautéed and sprinkled on top. The hash browns were a very small portion that was really greasy, accompanied by two greasy sausage patties. A ho hum pancake was served with warm syrup and whipped butter. I feel the meal was lackluster, but the staff was very attentive doting on our every need. My husband ordered the chicken fried steak, I tasted the gravy on it and thought it was pretty good. After the meal, aside from company I asked, what did you think about the steak, his simple response was, "terrible." Maybe just go for a quick cup of coffee or pie to this old Magnolia icon.

I appreciate the cleanliness Of this establishment. Much attention to detail on the food preparation is in the taste of the delicious meals on the menu. Their staff are kind, considerate and friendly which makes for a great combination of atmosphere and an enjoyable experience with food. This is a must visit establishment when in Fort Worth. Notably this establishment has been a family owned due many years contributing to the local community and economy. Thank you for your time and efforts!

Cool spot, good food, amazing service nothing to complaint about!!! Definitely long wait on the weekends unless you sit in a bar! But food is definitely worth the wait. Few regular bfast menu w some added flair. Definitely must try after they renovate the whole thing. Keep it up guys!

Food was awesome! I have a hard time finding places that correctly cook eggs over medium, but these were perfect. The bacon was crispy and I ordered a biscuit with gravy as my break to take to go. Grits were delish. Mimosa was only $5 and they sold one of the best brownies I have ever tasted! The service is always great at paris because they kept the original servers who have always been there through several owners. Ambience is a nicely lit diner with all new floors & counters. It gets busy on weekends recommend counter top if you are solo!

The food was very good, the service was excellent. Great brunch spot on Magnolia! Also, they have homemade pies, so don't miss out on those.

Reading the other reviews from the last month or so... I'm not sure what these people wanted as far as a good breakfast. They must have come on really bad days. I have now been there twice in the last month and my meal was very good the first time and amazing today. I ordered the John Denver omelette with hashbrowns and a pancake. The omelette was straight off the grill, so hot I couldn't even eat it at first and the hashbrowns were just the same. The hashbrowns were cooked perfectly... They weren't brittle or crunchy and over cooked. I had the whole grain pancake and it was really really tasty. I had basically too much food on my plate but I ate every bite of it! My husband had the three eggs, sausage, hashbrowns and pancake with coffee. He chowed down on his like it was his last meal. He said that the sausage patties were very good. They are not thin and small, as a matter of fact I had commented on how thick they were and how big they were. He said the coffee it was very good. Our waitress, Truvy, was excellent - I could not have asked for better service. The atmosphere was great, reminded me of years gone by. We will definitely be returning, and soon.

Need to start out by saying my server, Angela, did a great job. Thank you Angela. It's been a while since my last visit. In fact, I think the last time I tried to eat here, PCS was closed for renovations. Now that I'm back, all I an say is the renovations look great. The did not destroy the original charm, but polished and improved a classic eating spot. How? Well, the first thing I noticed was beer on tap, and bottles on wine. Second was cocktails on the menu too! Third, PCS is now open for lunch and dinner. I snapped pics of all the menus. I was here for breakfast, and had the Huevos Rancheros - Two fried eggs, refried beans, hashbrowns, and corn torillas. $9.95 Very tasty, see picture. The other item that was tempting, and until now I only ever saw at an old, south, pancake house was the German Pancake. At $9.95 I thought a bit pricey (it's basically 2 eggs, 1/2 cup AP flour, and 1/2 cup milk... and a bit of butter, lemon and powdered sugar... And I make it myself). But maybe next time... Breakfast is served all day! I was also happy to see the pie and ice cream options still exist. And the historic photos on the back wall are fun to look at too. On breakfast alone I would have gone 5 stars, but now I need to check out lunch and dinner options too! Bottom line: So happy a classic is staying classy!

Paris coffee is an absolute neighborhood staple. From the in-house made baked goods to the lavender latte. Every single staff member is a delight and always so welcoming. Paris always has fast impeccable service. My husband always orders the breakfast sandwich. (He says is the best on the menu) and I alway order a classic breakfast with their pancakes. Clean, classic, efficient and friendly.

Delicious. Friendly. Fun. Someone had switched out the salt for the sugar and we all had a laugh. Blessed to have such a cool place for so long in our area. We love you Paris Coffee Shop!

A very friendly hostess met me upon entering Paris Coffee Shop. This is the first time I have been here since the new ownership. The restaurant looks great, very bright and inviting. I arrived early, 730am, and was seated immediately. The server was also very friendly. I ordered coffee and a Belgian waffle and bacon. I have to say I was disappointed when the waffles arrived as there were two thin waffles on the plate instead of a thick fluffy on the inside crispy on the outside Belgian waffle. The waffles were ok. I didn't put the fruit or whipped cream on top as I don't like my waffles that way. I had them put it on the side. The fruit was good, strawberries and blueberries. I will have to try a different breakfast to find a new favorite. As a side note, you now pay at the table instead of a cashier up front.

I saw this place and thought I would give it a try. I'm glad I did. It's been around since 1926 or so. The place is very clean and the service was amazing. I had the chicken fried stal breakfast, and it was delicious, especially the gravy. Will definitely go back

Food was great! I got a bagel & salmon with capers. It tasted amazing! Also our server was so kind and friendly! The atmosphere was nice and not too noisy. We came in early so it was calmer I guess. I would recommend this place!
