Looking for a quiet and cozy place to have a coffee with your family and children without them disturbing anyone? It's not always easy to have a snack with young children, especially when they start to get restless and make a little noise after only five minutes.
In response to growing demand from new parents, Paris has seen the emergence of numerous cafés and coffee shops created especially for them, combining a cozy atmosphere with space for children, offering activities and entertainment for the little ones.
The menu features classic hot drinks like any other café, freshly squeezed fruit juices for children, and desserts that delight young and old alike: pies, cakes, fondants, crepes, waffles, and pastries from around the world.
To keep your little ones entertained, some establishments provide self-service children's books, sorted by age, board games, coloring supplies, and many other activities. The bonus of these kid-friendly places? Most often, they welcome parents, grandparents, and children on Wednesdays and weekends, and on other days, the space is transformed into a coworking space for remote workers!
