My husband has raged about this place. Says the best hot chocolate anywhere. (And cold chocolate). A lovely setting with professional servers. the onion soup and croque Monsieur were lovely! And the mint tea was nicely refreshing. A show stopping French bake shop with something for every palette. Wish we were here longer I'd go again! read more

We'd heard so much about the hot chocolate here, we had to try it. Long line as expected. Note: you can get hot chocolate to go and not have to stand in line. But we wanted to dine in. The place was really hopping, as expected. After a long wait, we were grateful to be wedged into a tiny table in the corner, though it was challenging. The eggs Benedict were good, but the avocado that was with it tasted like guacamole, not a flavor that was anticipated or desired and detracted from the dish. The hot chocolate was like something I'd never had. It was thick, and very intense with the added whipped cream and sugar. A little too rich for me at some point, and I was glad I food to go with it. Nothing against it, just a bit too much for me. Though I'd probably have it again! Inside, as expected, the restaurant was hopping and so were the servers. They were in constant motion, adding to the vibrancy of the restaurant. It was all good though, and we were glad we experienced it. read more

I have always dreamed of visiting Angelina in Paris to enjoy their Mont Blanc in the salon. However, when I arrived, there was an unbelievably long line in front of me. Since I didn't have much time, I gave up on visiting the salon and opted to take the Mont Blanc to go instead. The Mont Blanc was incredibly creamy with a lighter texture than I expected, which I really liked. It wasn't too sweet and had a strong chestnut flavor. The generous whipped cream filling paired perfectly with the chestnut cream. I loved it so much that I really wanted to get another one! At the takeout section, I saw a variety of cakes, baked goods, and chocolates, all with fancy and cute designs. I also glanced at the salon, and it looked absolutely gorgeous. I hope to enjoy cake and tea there next time. read more

Note: This is about the location inside the Louvre. Surly service with worse cold food, inside a lovely setting. Terrible food, service, and experience at any price. Read on, but the food was probably a safety hazard. Easily one of the worst combination of poor food and poor service I have had on any vacation, ever. Yeah, it was expensive, but I knew the prices going in. However, this would have been terrible service and food at any price. My croque madam arrived stone cold. The bread that was clearly toasted/grilled was cold, inside was cold, the egg on top was cold. It was late in the day, I was starving, and my choices were: eat a cold egg/ham/cheese sandwich and risk getting sick, complain and risk the waitress or kitchen staff doing something to the food, or report it to the manager after the meal. I was so hungry I decided to just eat it, risk getting sick on vacation, and then tell the manager after the meal. I paid the entire meal, in full, and did not ask for any discount. The waitress disappeared for extended periods, provided surly answers to basic questions. (Q: What kind of vegetables in the "seasonal vegetables"? A: I don't know. It's a surprise.) We finally had to ask another person (her manager?) for additional water. The four of us drank our carafe of water and needed another at the end of the meal. When our waitress brought it - it was yellowish. I wish I had taken a picture. It looked like dishwasher. We asked for a different carafe, she argued saying it was fresh. I asked for a replacement anyhow. She whipped it off the table, returned immediately, slapped a new carafe on the table "There. It's fresh.", spun around, and was gone. When the very pleasant manager arrived, I told him of the cold food, poor service, and told him I would just pay it. He wanted to know more details - saying he was the manager and neededto know, which I provided. However, if he was really this concerned he would have stopped by at any other point before presenti the bill. It was an expensive meal, but again, I knew that going in. We had been in the museum for hours, it was the mid afternoon, and the menu looked promising, if pricy. Absolutely not worth it under any circumstances. read more

This was my first time in Paris but I was traveling with a few friends who had been before and one who actually lived there for some time. They were adamant that we go to Angelina's, and I simply wanted to experience as much as possible. I was not disappointed. The service was fantastic, everyone was kind and patient with us as our French was terrible. There wasn't a thing we had that we didn't like, and honestly I don't know what magic they put in their matcha latte but I have dreams about it. It was absolutely delicious. I need the brand and preparation technique, I haven't had a matcha in LA that compares. It was pretty busy that morning but it still was relatively lowkey and the tea room setting was absolutely perfect. I naturally had to get my French macarons - incredible. I could have spent the day in there reading and sipping another matcha. This was will a must visit the next time I am in Paris. read more

So my daughter was obsessed with coming to this restaurant due to all the reviews she seen on TIK TOK. We decided to go on Sunday while we were in Paris and to my surprise the lines were not as long as I have seen in post and reviews from other people that have visit Angelina. It's nicely decorated with a pastry stand if you want to buy dessert to take with you if you choose not to dine inside. We tried the Egg Benedict with avocado and French Toast, a pastry that I forgot the name of and their famous hot chocolate. Everything was pretty good. But the hot chocolate was a little too rich for my likings, my daughter enjoyed her and that's all that mattered because we came here for her to have a great experience. read more

Angelina was a must-visit on my Paris itinerary - even the summer heat couldn't stop me from indulging in their famed hot chocolate. The luxurious experience of sipping rich, molasses-thick chocolate in their opulent salon made me feel like royalty. The hot chocolate is so decadent, it's practically chocolate sauce that needs to be savored slowly. Perfect for sharing with a friend, the hot chocolate is served in a tea pot, with a side of whipped cream, that can serve 1-2 people. The salon is decorated with mirrors and paintings lining the walls, and it felt like we had been invited for afternoon tea at someone's fancy château. Our friendly server's meticulous presentation of our hot chocolate added to the overall charm. Angelina's desserts also looked incredible, and I want to try their mont blanc on my next visit. While touristy and a little over-the-top (in the best away), Angelina provides the full chocolate salon experience that I'd definitely come back for. read more

The food itself is genuinely very good but SUPER rich so pace yourself. This service at this place was high end so have a high end personality if that makes sense.

Overpriced. Nothing really special about this food. Definitely a tourist trap. Thanks Instagram!

Hot chocolate is definitely worth the hype!! There was a line outside for the tea room, But you can just enter if you're taking things to go. Went in.

Best hot chocolate in my life! We visited Mademoiselle Angelina in August 2023, during our tour in Paris. I was looking to try real hot chocolate or actually liquid chocolate as seen in the movie Chocolate. Our tour guide said that Angelina was the place and we gave it shot. What can I say? Wow!!! It was the best host chocolate in my life and certainly exceeded all expectations! Thick, rich, smooth, perfectly balanced, not too sweet and not too bitter. Unbelievable! The pastries were very average despite their look, but the chocolate was totally making up for it. It was a masterpiece in itself and didn't need any pastries with it. Angelina is a must try for chocolate lovers! read more

This should be a must stop place for anyone in the Louvre area. My dining experience at Angelina was absolutely incredible from start to finish. My wife and I had our two year old son with us. This is a very upscale place. It is quieter and not really kid friendly, unless you have a child who is either well behaved or can be distracted with an ipad. Luckily ours was having a good day! The servers were so friendly from the start. They set us up in a great spot, had a high chair for him, and even had coloring books/utensils. We started off with mimosas and their starter breads. The mimosa was so crisp and good. Great bread as well. For my meal, I had the Angelina Cheeseburger, which I highly recommend. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare and may have been the best burger I have ever had. It came topped with béchamel cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and pickled onions. The béchamel cheese sauce put every bite over the top. An incredible juicy and flavorful burger, held together on a nice brioche bun. Overall, it was a great meal for us all. They also have some delicious macaroons! read more

When my husband and I did our European vacation this past September, Paris was our last stop. My only request was 3 thing. to see the Eiffel Tower, Visit the Versailles and have a brunch at this marvelous brunch place called Angelina :) That morning was so rainy but it did not let my spirit stop us from trying the famous hot chocolate (thank you tiktok lol) we went there early, I think they open at 8 am on a Thursday we were there by 8:15? I already expect that there will be a long line but lo and behold there was no line!!! it was meant to be! (but to be honest probably it was the rain) we were greeted when we enter the restaurant and got seated right away. The ambiance on the restaurant was definitely amazing and so Parisian! there was a lot of people already seated and for them being open just 15 minutes just tells you this is the place to go. as we were looking at the menu my husband and I decided to order the brunch tower? (I'm sorry I couldn't remember the actual name of it) but this menu came with everything from drinks, tower of assorted pastries, breakfast sandwich and it was a dream! everything was pretty amazing! the presentation and the taste was really really good and too bad we couldn't eat the whole thing. to be honest my husband and I can just share that brunch tower and I think we will be okay because it was just too much but for the price you pay it was definitely worth it! we did splurged because YOLO. Service was surprisingly very good! I said surprising because we are in Europe and don't expect great service but Angelina is all about their food and service, they are on point and quick and they make sure you are well taken care off! I highly recommend Angelina as a stop when you are in Paris. just make sure you are here early. read more

I am a hot chocolate connoisseur. I had Angelina hot chocolate 3 times on my 6 day visit to Paris. We went at around 7:30 and got in the front of the line. We thought they would be open then from what we saw online but opening was really 8:00 I believe. The line didn't get too long. Once opened, we got seated and served very quickly. I got a cocoa with whip cream and a breakfast omelette with herbs and bacon. The cocoa was soooo good. Worth the hype. Super thick and rich. The whip cream cuts it perfectly. I wish there was more whip given!! The omelette was perfect. I normally don't like salad but I loved it. Perfectly light and crisp. Service was incredible. Super fast and the staff was very nice. The inside was beautiful! Not a ton of room though. Very cramped tables. The bathroom was very pretty too (upstairs). Would highly recommend Angelina. read more

I kept hearing about Angelina when looking up things to do in Paris, so I figured I should try it at least once. It was good but not amazing, though worth trying once so you can check it off your Paris list. My friend and I woke up super early due to jet lag, so we decided to come for an early breakfast before hitting up the Louvre. I'm glad we did, since there was already a long line of people when we left at 9:30 am! We came on a Friday morning around 8:40 and snagged one of the last open tables. The main seating area is a in a big room with all the tables close together, while we were in a smaller room in the back. Even though it was packed in the main room, it was also super quiet when we walked in. I guess everyone was focused on eating and not chatting. It was early, so we opted to share their Parisian breakfast ($23), which comes with your choice of tea, coffee, OR hot chocolate, fresh fruit juice, croissant and pan au chocolat, and a baguette. I also ordered a vanilla millefeuille pastry ($10.50) on the side. The hot chocolate is what they're known for, so we chose that. Just make sure you know what you're getting in for; it's quite thick and rich. When you're drinking it, it's feels like you're drinking straight up melted chocolate more than anything else. My friend took one sip and was done, while I slowly sipped away at it until I finished. I enjoyed it, but it was a little too rich and sweet for me at 9 am. The rest of the items in the breakfast set was okay, nothing out of the ordinary. I loved the vanilla millefeuille and thought the cream inside was very light and went perfectly with the crispy layers, which tasted vaguely of hazelnut. The millefeuille is what pushes my rating of this place from 3 to 4 stars. After dining here, you can visit the bakery at the front of the restaurant to pick up some more items to go. Their pastries looked bomb, but I was too sugared out to consider buying any. Service here is quite slow. It took a while for the servers to come take our order and give us the check, though food comes out quickly after you order. read more

Such a classy place ! Been around for 120 years, and there's a good reason for that . The hot chocolate is the signature and indeed is amazing - thick and rich , not too sweet and something in the alchemy it creates w the whipped cream just generates a magical taste The mount blanc , their classic cake with the chestnut cream was also amazing - the cream is very unique and yummy The weakest part was the eclair - the dough felt a little soggy and wasn't up to par , compared to the other items Yes, we did wait in line , and yes it did take 75 mins - is it worth it ? We think it is . Prices are on the high side , but this is really a classic . Worth it ! read more

We had a great breakfast/brunch and were glad we went to Angelina on Rivoli. Like many say, the hot chocolate is great! It's worth it for that alone. The ambiance is that of a storied Parisian tea room. It's neat and almost kitschy. Service was fast, efficient and friendly. Alas, the pastries look better than they taste and didn't seem that fresh. We got a side of fries to cut all the sugar intake, and they were surprisingly good. read more

A must see Paris destination. There is always a line to get in, but it moves surprisingly quick. Beautiful French decor. Service is at a relaxed pace, so this is for social eating, and not eat and run. The super rich and creamy hot chocolate is their signature dish, however all the pastries and breakfast items are great, especially the gorgeous and delicious avocado toast. . However, we were not crazy about the lunch items. We had the roast chicken, and fish and chips, and they were good, but not the same level as all the sweets. Anyway, it's one of the places you have to check off your bucket list. read more

The wait is not bad especially if your party is small, ~ 2 people. Those with bigger parties, more than 4, had to wait much longer. Maybe I went on a more busy day, but the food was okay.

I got their super early. My hotel was literally right there, so it was easy. The dining room is pretty, but the service was not friendly... at least I felt that way.

I would never return and was not impressed at all. read more

Angelina - Could not finish it. I thought i was gonna toss my cookies. It is SO thick and so deep in chocolate flavor. You may like it, I say no. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Paris, 75

I've visited Angelina's several times over the years. It's very touristy and famed, and a line often forms outside. I recommend going early to beat the rush. We went this year at 8:00 AM, and the main floor was already mostly full. The most famous thing there is the hot chocolate. It's very rich, creamy, and heavy, but I always look forward to it. I think during the winter, they sometimes have a stand outside the building just for hot chocolate. That being said, while it's a nice tradition, you can find better food elsewhere. I had really good scrambled eggs there last year and was excited to return. They ended up being quite different the second time around, which was disappointing. Overall, if you're in the Louvre area, it may be a good stop for food, but I wouldn't make it a must-visit. It's quite expensive for what you get. If it's your first time in Paris, check it out. read more

My absolute favorite spot from my recent Paris trip! It 100% lives up to the hype and I'd highly recommend carving out time to dine here. My friend and I came around 11 AM and though we were expecting the line to be long, it wasn't too bad! We only waited about 15-20 minutes. The interior here is huge and they're a well-oiled machine, so even if the line might be intimidating, it does go fast. The vibes here are exquisite, and exactly what you'd imagine. It's so adorable and homey, yet chic and elegant. It can be a rather tight space depending on where you get seated, but breakfast in Paris doesn't get much better than this. My friend and I both got the Angelina breakfast, and each item was so delicious, though unsurprisingly, the Hot Chocolate is the star. So decadent!! The croissants, eggs, and bread were also a hit, and I love their in-house spreads and jams. We also got a ton of little trinkets, souvenirs, and pastries before leaving. An absolute must! read more

A vacation to Paris is incomplete without a trip to Angelina, so that's what we did. So glad we did! A few of us ordered the brunch, which in itself is a multi-course menu starting with hot chocolate, assorted croissants (plain and chocolate), mini baguettes, that are served with their signature jam in tiny bottles and butter (that alone deserves a paragraph IMO), and your choice of juices and beverages. I opted for their mushroom and cheese omelette. Fluffy is an understatement. It felt like biting into a warm, pillowy, cloud. Their hot chocolate was delicious. It's thicker than your regular hot cocoa, but trust me, you will be left so satisfied at the end. For dessert I had their signature Mont Blanc. It's milky flavored because of the whipped cream and sweet from the marzipan. A bit too sweet to my liking. Couldn't finish the entire thing so ended up sharing. They had a mango flavor so probably I should have tried that. Service was great; the decor is beautiful, and we didn't mind the 45 minute wait. read more

Not worth the hype :( Angelina Cafe is a very popular and viral cafe in Paris known for their hot chocolate. It is also popular for its Mont Blanc and other desserts. I waited in line for a little less than an hour for a table. Do note, that you can go in and bypass the line if you just want to order to-go/ just grab a pastry. There was a long line when I went. The interior of the cafe is BEAUTIFUL. It is so pretty and the ambiance was amazing. The decoration was so pretty, coquette, and perfect for brunch or a snack. The property is also quite large with two floors and many tables to accomodate the crowd. Food: Unfortunately, I do not have good things to say about the food. I ordered the hot chocolate, a paris brest, and a croissant. The hot chocolate was indeed rich and decadent, but it was almost like drinking melted chocolate. To be fair I am not a chocolate person, so perhaps others will like it. Actually yes, I will give Angelina a point for this one because I do think chocolate lovers would like this drink. It was very rich and creamy. The croissant was not great. It was dry, not buttery nor fluffy on the inside. I didn't try the paris brest, but my friend said it was just okay. Service: Service was good I wish it was worth the hype, but unfortunately it was not. read more

TLDR; angelina offers delicious hot chocolate (it indeed met my expectations). 8.90 gets you cream and a pot that can fill two small teacups to share which satisfied my sweet craving, but the hot chocolate is good enough that i could easily drink my own too. visit on a weekday, particularly in the morning, for a shorter queue. // store, location, service // angelina is located in central paris near rue da rivoli, the gardens, and museums. this location no longer takes reservations, so we arrived at 9:30am on a thursday morning. the queue was short and we waited around 10-15 minutes for a table. our waitress took our order quickly and our hot chocolate arrived very quickly. // chocolat chaud, crème fouetté (hot chocolate, whipped cream) 8.90 // we came to angelina for the hot chocolate. one order gets you a pot which is enough to fill two teacups, along with a small cup of cream. a lot of people order one pot per person, but we decided to start with one (and it ended up being enough for the two of us to share since it is rich and sweet). the hot chocolate was very good! it was clearly made with good quality chocolate, probably dark chocolate. the drink was very rich and it was sweet, but surprisingly not too much. it was also nice to add the bits of cream on the top and let it melt into the drink as we sipped it. we looked at the pastries and other menu items, but they seemed to be quite overpriced and a lot of reviews said they were okay. nothing really caught our eye, so we just got the hot chocolate. i'd recommend angelina for the hot chocolate and would return! read more

Yall, the breakfast here was okay. If you're coming just for the hot chocolate, it's not as pretty or impressive as Carrette. Carrette wins in the hot chocolate for me. The interior was beautiful but as you got to the back back near the restrooms, it seemed to have been forgotten. The decor wasn't that nice, it felt cramped and that's where we were seated. I don't know why but the pastries on the menu are more expensive by 2-4 euros than the SAME pastries in the bakery display shop. There was a separate line JUST for the bakery. I'd recommend you do that instead, save yourself the euros and time of waiting in the long line to dine in. The mont-blanc is one of their iconic desserts and it's pretty but the taste wasn't there and didn't finish it. The rest of the breakfast was okay but nothing too special. Yall know the coffee in France is small and expensive. it wasn't even espresso. I asked our server if they did refills and he's like "no. you just buy another coffee". LOL. Also, our server was pushy at the end and made us give him a tip. The bill didn't have tip included and we were speaking in Spanish and our mistake was discussing this while he was standing there and he knew the Spanish word for 'tip' and was like, "how much do you want to add?" (while holding the card machine in his hand so he could enter the amount. HOW AWKWARD!!!!! Across the street was the gardens which were lovely to walk through and you're close to the Louvre too.

Yelp Review 2023 #17: Angelina is a French cafe but it's popularity has spread in some parts of the world. Their hot chocolate is what put them on the nap. So, if you come here and you can only have item, make sure it's their hot chocolate. They have sandwiches, soups, salads, entrees, coffee, tea, hot or cold drinks, and pastries. You can get a croissant too which is good but there are so many options for croissanteries in Paris! (Shout out to Apple for marking croissanterie as misspelled/ not a word. You need a software update with a more expanded vocabulary, thanks! It's not even a big word). The times I've been here, I wasn't too hungry. I've tried their club sandwich with a side of thin fries, Croque monsieur, pistache Mont Blanc...but I never skipped the hot chocolate. Their hot chocolate is hot, thick and creamy. Use the whipped cream to cool down the hot chocolate to a safe drinking temperature. Unless, you enjoy the feeling of burning the roof of your mouth. What can I say about the service? It's French! Don't be too eager and friendly - non-Americans don't appreciate that (that will also get you robbed in broad daylight). read more

We went to the one inside the Versailles Palace and we came right in time because lunch service hasn't started so the line wasn't long and we were seated almost immediately. I ordered the famous old fashioned hot chocolate to share with my SIL and a Croque Monsieur. We ordered 2 bowls of the Crème Dubarry which is a creamy cauliflower soup for each couple to share. SIL ordered the Parisian breakfast while the brothers, our husbands each ordered the Angelina Club Sandwich. Everything was perfect! Every dish was as delicious as it was beautifully presented. Our host//server was amazing! He was quite entertaining as well. And being the Americanized Filipinos we are, we were a bit impatient (and hungry) but had to wait since the restaurant was packed! And we didn't mind one bit because our server made sure we were taken care of properly and when the food came all was forgotten. The cream served with the hot chocolate alone was divine. The pastries were fresh, the orange juice was also fresh. The ambience being inside the Palace of Versailles added to the charm and history of the restaurant. After our meal, as we were headed back to continue our tour we saw that the line has grown immensely. I would estimate at least 1 hour wait for the first person in line but definitely worth it if you ask me. We bought some goodies to take home so my kids can try their hot chocolate and chestnut cream. I Love Angelina's! read more
