Sadly I missed the risqué Flappers and the Golden Age of Art Deco, but a hundred years later Paris nouveau is still drop dead gorgeous and the city of light! Zelda Fitzgerald hero worshipping aside, fabulous cafés are everywhere across Paris. One such café is Le Savio. A true Parisian café! If you've never been to Paris... it has hands down the best cafés in the world. Period. Yet, you'll also discover that many cafés open later in the mornings. So to avoid early morning disappointment plan ahead. Fortunately Le Savio was located just around the corner from my Bed & Breakfast in the Madeleine District. Le Savio can be described as a fancy coffee shop, as the decor dictates, and the baristas are more cultured (if that makes any sense lol). If you know, you know;). French spoken here but if versed in the basics of "bonjour", "croissant", and "café latté" you need not worry. I arrive at 7:00am, hoping to get a bite before my first showing at the Louvre. Parisians already fill the counter, from blue collar to those in haute couture. I manage to find a seat at the end. My senses immediately pick up the rich aroma of freshly brewed French coffee and I notice a fresh basket of croissants. Ahhh. I order my "chocolat croissant" and "café latté" s'il te plaît. I'm in Heaven... In the end, I recommend Le Savio for those looking for exquisite coffee. It's not your traditional café per se and I'm led to believe that it really picks up for the lunch menu. Perhaps. I don't know as I became a regular only in the early morning hours. Oh! si tu pouvais lire dans mon coeur, tu verrais la place où je t'ai mise! Ahh Paris...

Somewhat crowded. They have several variety of sandwiches in baguettes. I choose a quiche Lorraine and the soup of the day (cauliflower). The quiche was fine but the soup had zero taste. I am a cauliflower fan and I couldn't stomach finishing this soup. To top it all, I was hungry. A second visit is not necessary.

Everything was so buttery and flaky and delicious. Tried to go back a third time before our flight out on Monday, but turned out the shop was closed. :'( My bf says this place is the #2 must-go to place in Paris behind Eiffel Tower.

I came here for breakfast while in Paris and was overwhelmed with all the delicious options here. Service is quick and the lines move fast. I was disappointed that they didn't offer hot chocolate here. In any case, we ordered croissants and pain au chocolat and they were pretty good but not very memorable. Perhaps not the best we ever had in Paris, but definitely really good!

Conveniently located five minutes away from our hotel, we made the trek to Liberté for coffee and breakfast. During a previous visit, my wife and I ordered coffees and she ordered a baguette (at the time I had a yogurt parfait in our room). However, during our second visit I promised her that I would venture out and try one of their delicacies. Similar to our first visit, the establishment did not have a line; however, as the friendly employee behind the counter greeted us, a line began forming behind us (look at us being trendsetters). We proceeded to order the following: two cafe lattes, danish (wife), and I ordered the Cheesecake au citron. The Cheesecake au citron was chef's kiss (I do not use this phrase lightly). So delicious, my wife (who is very picky when it comes to sweets) found it to be scrumptious and suggested that we should return so that she could order one for herself (I hope you didn't think that I would share all of my cheesecake with her...lol). Thank you Liberté!

It's definately not a fancy bakery but full of home-made kind desserts and fast food such as sandwishes, hambergers etc. The deseert price range is mostly around 3.5 to 4.2 euros which is reasonable. Burgers and salads are around 6.2 euros and lunch boxes might be around 10 euros. We were here for sweet treats after walking around the Paris for 15 km. We sat there and took a break. The staff were freindly even when there was a queue. The mousse au chocolate and creme de marron were all good. The strawberry tart was tasty, too. I was trying to find the bakery name on google and then I noticed that the reviews were not good and old so I decided to write my honest review as a tourist for your reference.
