Cafe de Paris — Restaurant in North Myrtle Beach

If heaven had an espresso machine, it would be operated by Faith, while Kate rang up your luxurious latte with the warmth of a lifelong friend who somehow also manages your favorite Parisian bistro. Café De Paris is not merely a coffee shop—it’s an oasis of caffeinated transcendence disguised as a beach-town café.

The moment I stepped inside, I was met with the aromatic embrace of roasted perfection—notes of chocolate, caramel, and subtle existential clarity. The ambiance whispers “You’re in France now,” even though your flip-flops and sunburn scream otherwise.

Kate, the cashier, possesses the rare talent of making every transaction feel like a scene from a Wes Anderson film—whimsical, polite, and oddly profound. She takes your order not as a mere exchange of goods and currency but as a solemn pact that she and Faith will deliver enlightenment in cup form.

Then there’s Faith, the barista, who handles the espresso machine with the precision of a concert pianist and the serenity of a monk. Watching her craft a latte is to witness the Platonic ideal of coffee preparation. I half-expected a symphony to swell as she poured milk with the geometry of Da Vinci.

In a world of soulless drive-thrus and lukewarm ambition, Café De Paris is a reminder that coffee, when done right, isn’t a beverage—it’s a philosophy. Five stars, a standing ovation, and my undying loyalty to Kate and Faith: the twin muses of North Myrtle Beach’s finest...

I won't even bother to tell you about our exact incident and experience, because the staff (and whoever is answering the reviews here on google) seem to deny all of the customers concerns anyways and is super defensive. But believe me, it was horrible. Shame. So let me give you a general overview instead they can't just deny and write a lengthy, wordy response to: this place is about as "French" as olive garden is Italian. Bland, overpriced, americanized, mediocre. The only thing you get here in MB that resembles "french vibes" (MB is supposed to have the spirit of southern hospitality) is what you would get in big cities in France (not quaint, small town France): bad attitude, rudeness, slow and passive aggressive service. Will never be back. Can't wait to my next trip to visit my family and spend some time in France, where you can find decent coffee and pastries for a third of the price. That's when you can actually tolerate bad and slow service, if the pastries, food and coffee make up for it. Here, it's a lose-lose...

Associate at counter not customer service accomadating . As for a 2nd t bag for 20oz black tea because it was very weak & told no they don’t do that . Menu items are deceiving asked for a danish and only got slice of the full danish . Was told if I wanted a full danish I could buy them at Costco . Found out that cafe Paris has a new owner and was told that’s how they run things . Seating not ADA conforming . When I walked away from counter after asking for a second tbag .
