At Kozy, you can find (in my opinion) some of the best pancakes for brunch on the left bank. Located on Avenue Bosquet in the 7eme, Kozy has an all-week brunch that will never fail to satisfy a traditional brunch craving. With a lovely interior and staff, it's a perfect spot to spend a late morning with a mimosa and friends. 

79 Av. Bosquet, 75007 Paris

8:30-2:30 p.m. during the week, 9:30 - 5 p.m. on the weekends

 

Cafe Loulou 

Located in the Louvre Gardens, Loulou offers a lighter upscale experience for brunch with a Mediterranean take on cuisine. Perfect for a sunny spring day, Loulou presents a Parisian experience of glitz and glamour for all.  Sit in some of Paris most beautiful gardens with a glass of champagne while you bask in the sun at LouLou.

The Marais,  Kitchen is the perfect place if you're vegetarian or vegan as they cater to those options first. Focused on the idea of comfort food, Kitchen provides brunch in a small but cozy layout. A rare sight in Paris, Kitchen has a few options for bagels, however, don't hesitate to try their signature veggie stew, a crowd favorite of Kitchen's patrons.

As its name suggests, Eggs and Co is for egg lovers, with a full menu of almost all the ways to make eggs imaginable. But not to worry! If you're like me and don't indulge in omelets or frittatas, Eggs and Co has other delectable brunch items such as pancakes and French toast.

The perfect spot for a quick breakfast with friends can be found in Rivié, the Hoxton's restaurant in hidden greenery within in the hotel. No reservations can be made for brunch here but with a large open space and multiple seating areas, you should be able to find a table for your group throughout the day.

Season is  a trendy cafe that takes the Los Angeles-esque style of brunch and gives it a Parisian twist. In an open modern space with a lot of light you can enjoy your brunch with  a shakshuka, a bowl, the traditional stack of pancakes, and more.

1 Rue Charles-François Dupuis, 75003 Paris

Café Cassette

Deep in the 6eme Cafe Cassette is surrounded by flowers and floral decor where you can choose from a set brunch menu or your own brunch selections. Recommendations for Cassette come in the form of paring your brunch with a selection from their amazing Spritz Bar. 

73 Rue de Rennes, 75006

7 a.m. - 2 a.m.

 

CoCo 

Another upscale option for brunch is Coco in Opera by the Palais Garnier. With a mission to "live in the moment in a restaurant" Coco is a chic as the neighborhood surrounding it. Champange is a must with the light smaller plates, both will surely put a smile on your face as you indulge in their "table of desires".
