From the fitting room to the coffee cup. On May 30, 2026, Rouje opens Café en Rouje at the heart of its Rue Bachaumont address in Paris’s 2nd arrondissement. From the dressing room to the counter, from lipstick to a sharp black coffee, Jeanne Damas signs a new moment where fashion is as much about tasting as wearing.

The red heat is felt in the 2ᵉ arrondissement. On May 30, 2026, Rouje opens the Café en Rouje inside its flagship on rue Bachaumont, in Paris. A new address that shifts the brand—from wardrobe to table, lipstick to sleek black—onto the dining scene. For its 10th anniversary, Rouje is celebrating the Parisian art of living with a café built as a true social space, where people come for coffee as much as for sustained conversations.

Behind this deeply personal project, Jeanne Damas calls up memories of her father’s restaurant: the clatter of cups, the scents from the kitchen, the living charm of Parisian bistros. A wooden counter, floor mosaics, inviting banquettes… The Café en Rouje channels these cues without folklore, wearing the brand’s trademark low-key, effortlessly stylish vibe.

Le Café en Rouje

Not just a cafe, Rouje is a wardrobe turned Parisian fantasy: flowing dresses, retro prints, effortless femininity. Here, that universe carries over into the plates with the same attention to detail. The star of the menu? A homemade madeleine served with coffee, conceived as Rouje’s Proustian madeleine. Beside it, house pastries and signature drinks, including a mocha featuring chocolate, beetroot-vanilla and Espelette pepper that literally turns life red.

To build this address, Rouje surrounds itself with committed artisans: Fève for coffee, Le Parti du Thé, Vivant, Xoco and Proost. And because style doesn’t stop at the counter, the cafe also unveils a line of take-away goodies: branded mugs, matchboxes, coffee beans, and a dedicated t-shirt. More than just a coffee spot, a love letter to Paris that still lingers in the cafe scene.
