Best afternoon tea in Paris: cafés, tearooms and moments to share
In Paris, afternoon tea is never just about something sweet.
It is a chosen moment. A pause suspended between day and evening, when time naturally slows down.
As the afternoon fades, cafés fill once again, cups return to tables and conversations soften. This Parisian ritual crosses generations and neighbourhoods, guided by one simple idea: sharing a moment, without rushing.
Here are a few ways to enjoy the best afternoon tea in Paris, between neighbourhood cafés, tearooms and moments that feel like home.
Parisian cafés: afternoon tea in its most spontaneous form
In Parisian cafés, afternoon tea comes with no rules and no set time.
You stop for a coffee, add a pastry, and end up staying longer than planned.
These cafés are part of everyday Paris. People come as much for the atmosphere as for what is on the plate.
Some well-loved spots for a simple, genuine afternoon break:
Le Progrès
A neighbourhood institution where afternoon tea feels effortless, accompanied by the rhythm of local life.Café Dose Batignolles
A favourite for speciality coffee lovers, offering light treats in a relaxed, contemporary setting.Fragments

Tearooms and gourmet addresses for slowing down
For those who enjoy turning afternoon tea into a true pause, tearooms offer a different experience. Quieter, sometimes more creative, they invite you to slow down even further.
Here, afternoon tea becomes almost timeless.
A few iconic addresses:

Afternoon tea at Joli Môme: a moment that feels like home
At Joli Môme, afternoon tea takes a different form.
It is not about choosing an address, but about returning to the feeling of home.
Every afternoon, the living room opens to guests. A large shared table, homemade treats, hot or cold drinks depending on the season. Guests settle in freely, exchange a few words, and stay as long as they wish.
Afternoon tea here is not a service.
It is a moment of life.
It reflects the spirit of Joli Môme:
– sincere hospitality
– natural conviviality
