Fancy a quiet date in an intimate and warm setting? In Paris, some tea rooms are perfect for a date, with their soft lighting, beautiful pastries, and cozy atmosphere. For a first date or a moment for two, a tea room can be a great alternative to a bar.
Less noisy, more relaxed, often bathed in soft light, it's the ideal setting for a relaxed conversation. And in the capital, there are several places that are perfect for this kind of encounter! These tea rooms combine discreet charm and a cozy atmosphere, with their comfortable benches, small wooden tables, bouquets of dried flowers, and delicate tableware.
You can share a steaming cup of tea, a rooibos with red berries, a creamy matcha or a spicy latte, depending on your mood. Often, there are also beautiful pastries to share: thin tarts, chocolate cakes, lemon cakes or even more sophisticated desserts.
Better still, some of these Parisian tea rooms have a discreet terrace, perfect for a date on a sunny day. Others, more intimate, offer a romantic setting, conducive to confidences.
A tea room in Paris for a date is the guarantee of a sweet moment, without excess, focused on conversation and good food. It's the ideal place to bond, in a simple but refined setting. So, here are some great places to take your date!
