About Café de Flore

One of the world's most famous cafés — Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Albert Camus all wrote here. The red banquettes, marble tables, and precise service haven't changed since 1887. The hot chocolate is extraordinary. Yes, it's a tourist institution; it's also genuinely wonderful.
