Hexagone Café — Restaurant in Paris

Recommended as a place for good cup of coffee and some small pastries. We tried and like the lemon cake with poppy seeds, Raisins scone and Dark Chocolate cookies. We are the first customers on a Sunday morning and enjoyed the very peaceful ambient to ourselves. The barista is helpful to attend to us at the counter and attentive enough to clear the plates after we are done. Crowd started to stroll in some time at 11am and the cafe is almost full house. The cafe, its service and quality of food and coffee served here is truly recommended for people who love to enjoys smaller treats (but not a big and established meal) in the morning. A point to note about this beautiful cafe is that, some of the customers there could impolitely shout out across the table and request you to be quiet if they find you “too loud”. Our experience was ruined by 2 couples on that day for this. Considering that we spent 20 Euro there for 2 person to enjoy our breakfast and having seen these couples only sharing a coffee each and having their laptops ready to camp there for the rest of the days, we felt the cafe could enjoy better prospect if their customers can take time to enjoy the coffee and pastries but not abuse...

Style, simplicity and coffee from an award-winning roaster make this a great place to linger.

No-one minds how long you hang out on Hexagone Café’s stylish wooden tables and classroom chairs, so you can linger at leisure. A good thing too, as one of the founders is Stéphane Cataldi, named France’s best coffee roaster in 2010 – and it shows in the quality of the brew in your cup. On our visit in September 2015, the featured Finca la Fany coffee beans had been sourced from the Ahuachapán commune in Salvador. An espresso is €2.50, a cappuccino €4. Team it with a tartine spread with butter and rhubarb and grapefruit jam, perhaps, or a slice of own-made cheesecake. Around €11 will get you a full breakfast: fresh orange juice, a creamy cappuccino and tartines. And if you want to jazz up your breakfast at home, peruse their shelves of ground coffee, coffee beans, salted caramel biscuits and pots of honey. You’ll be happy to accept their...

Aussie approved for coffee. Paris doesn't have a coffee scene to the level that you get in Australia so it was a happy accident that I found this in the Montparnasse area. They pull one of the better espressos you will get in Paris so if you are in the area, this is a good choice. Their preference for filter is aeropress, and they are really into the science of it so you will get a very decent coffee if you opt for that. There are cookies, and the caneles are very good. There is an ice shaver but you can only find kakigori in summer, so sadly I never tried. They have a sign that asks you to stay off your phone if you want to sit in, which I think is the best way to let coffee lovers enjoy their coffee. And if you want something else to snack on, there is a famous Alsatian bakery on the corner up the road if you want to have a bretzel with...
