What to Expect
Cafe de Paris in Alexandra Park serves French pastries and breakfasts, and croissants are the recurring order. Ismail (June 2026) called them “marvellous”, and Richard (April 2026) thanked the owner directly, writing “Brovo Marc, you've built up a brilliant cafe!”. Brian (October 2025) had the chicken fricassee for lunch, calling it “nice/filling”, while sitting outside under the trees. Grace (2025) found service “very fast, almost a bit too fast” in a quiet, uncrowded setting.

Great cafe! Cafe de Paris is our go to place for bakery sweets, lots of delicious treats are on offer. The coffee is also good. On our last visit I had the chicken fricasse for lunch, which was nice/filling. Great place to sit under some trees and have a meal.

Beautiful ambiance. Perfect for a quiet meet up, not noisy. The service was very fast, almost a bit too fast. The food very fresh and well prepared. Love the outdoor setup.
