The 3rd arrondissement of Paris, often confused with the Marais district as a whole, is a distinct neighborhood in its own right, both quiet and creative. Here, there are no grand boulevards or imposing monuments, but a Paris on a human scale, crisscrossed by ancient alleyways,mansions, secret gardens, and discreet squares. You'll find contemporary art galleries, independent bookstores, niche museums such as the Museum of the Hunt and the National Archives, and a host of great places to eat, drink... or brunch.
On Sundays, the 3rd arrondissement becomes a real playground for brunch lovers. The neighborhood is home to a mixed population of young professionals, families, tourists, and creative types out on the town, and has something to suit every appetite. You'll find everything from coffee shops with minimalist decor to warmer, more traditional cafés offering classic brunches with pastries, eggs, fresh juice, and generous open-faced sandwiches.
The Haut-Marais is particularly dynamic in terms of gastronomy. Organic canteens, renowned bakeries, revamped bistros, and vegan or gluten-free establishments rub shoulders with true Parisian institutions. Brunch menus are often creative, carefully prepared, and served in a friendly and stylish atmosphere.
After brunch, a stroll is a must: wander along Rue de Bretagne, discover the Enfants Rouges market or head to Rue Charlot and its trendy boutiques. This side of Paris is best enjoyed at a leisurely pace, between two exhibitions and a gourmet meal.
