We dropped in to Cafe de Flore after dinner one evening. We were there for the history, the surroundings, the ambience. It ticked the boxes and I came away licking my lips having enjoyed one of the most delicious hot chocolates I have ever had - rich, thick, velvety served with a separate glass of cream chantilly Yumm! And yet,... More

So we met some friends at this very well known cafe in the St. Germain area of Paris. The cafe itself was so beautiful and obviously has the history that writers, philosophers and artists all frequented this place. Well that's all you get because you sure don't get good food or service. I have been to Paris many times and... More

Cafe de Flore is an institution. It had a grand history and is situated in touristy St Germain des Pres. You would be silly to expect great food, cheap prices and waiters who will bend over backwards to provide good service. If these are issues that are going to ruin your perfect Parisian holiday then stay away. The place will... More

A very bad impression of Paris left to tourists and parisians. Cow-milking at its best. Shameful More

My daughter And I were on a holiday in Paris for her 18th birthday. She insisted on dining at Cafe de Flore because Hemingway used to hang out there while writing his novels. We sampled their croque monsieur sandwich, profiteroles and coffee. It was great! Good sandwich portion, sinfully delicious dessert! It is expensive but, that is already a given... More

Don't go here if you want a cheap meal. Although nice (very good omelette), the food is very expensive for what it is. You pay for the history and the experience, which I have to say that I quite enjoyed. It certainly isn't all tourists as there were plenty of locals in when we visited. More

We were around St Germain and didnt know what to get for dinner so we walked towards a handsome french policeman and asked for his opinion. He told us that there is a big white cafe around the corner next to St Germain metro station. He made a 'hueww' sound meaning that the cafe is really posh like an elegant... More

I went to cafe de flore for brunch. I ordered an omlette and my mom ordered coffee and a pastry. Food was average, service was terrible and prices were extremely high. It appears that the owners of the cafe are really banking on the historical appeal of the venue because there is absolutely no additional valu added. I'd recommend you... More

I went to Cafe de Flore for my 30th birthday lunch with my boyfriend during our 4 day break in Paris. We were seated promptly and the waiter was friendly and explained a few things on the menu which was all in French. I chose a 'Le Flore' cocktail (15 euros) and my boyfriend had Bourbon (12 euros) to drink.... More
