Cordelia Coffee Flower Shop: Cordelia de Castellane's charming coffee shop and florist

In Paris, the city of lights and picturesque cafés, a new bohemian-chic universe has blossomed: the Cordelia Coffee Flower Shop. The fruit of the fertile imagination and discerning taste of Cordelia de Castellane - Artistic Director of Dior's Children's and Home lines, and also responsible for decorating theAbbaye des Vaux de Cernay and Maxim's in Paris - the deco-florist-coffeestore is an invitation to a country escape in the heart of the capital.

As soon as you step into this charming shop, you're transported by its warm, rustic ambience. Exposed beams, stone paving on the floor, crate shelves, flower-filled banquettes inviting you to relax, garden chairs and old, welcoming counters reveal a decor where time seems suspended. Here, at the crossroads of the English countryside andParisian art de vivre, every detail exudes authenticity and refinement.

Let yourself be lulled by the intoxicating scent of fresh flowers, as you savor a delicious Italian coffee prepared by Camille, the address's talented barista and undisputed master of the latte art. Gourmets will be delighted at the comptoir à gourmandises, where Cyril Lignac's marbré choco and viennoiseries rub shoulders with the delicious cheesecakes and crumbles baked by Cordelia de Castellane's son, a graduate of the École Ducasse. Sweet delights, sublimated in the hollows of Dior plates, displaying iconic quotations from the couturier, or mugs covered in the House's emblematic canework.

As for the florists, Pauline and her team welcome you with a smile and their expertise, ready to compose the bouquet of your dreams from a fine selection of seasonal flowers. Count on €15 for a bouquet of 3 roses, for example, and €30 to €40 for a medium-sized bouquet. Customers are regularly offered themed arrangements, in line with the festive events that punctuate the French calendar: Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, etc.
