Major roasting operation and training centre. Supplies 300+ hotels and restaurants across France. Co-founder Paul Arnephy holds the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF). Rustic-industrial loft space with exposed beams and street art. A bit of a destination - not near tourist sites - but the quality justifies the detour. Coffee courses and workshops available.

What to order

Single-origin filter. Pick up beans or capsules to take home.

Insider tip

This is where Paris's best baristas trained. The 18e location is a genuine neighbourhood - combine with a walk through the backstreets. Laptop-friendly.
