This is a must visit for hot chocolate and delicious pastries! You can even stop in for breakfast or an afternoon break.

Ladurée
So many of our contributors rave about the macarons here! The Champs-Elysées location is the most well known and also a gorgeous restaurant for taking photos. It can get very crowded so make a reservation if you will be dining in.
Carette
This is another option for delicious macarons (because you can never have enough!). There is a location just a few blocks from the Eiffel Tower so you won’t have to go out of your way to try it.

Pierre Hermé
Their macarons and chocolates are world famous and the perfect gift to take back for loved ones at home. The blended flavors are a treat for your taste buds. One of our contributors recommends trying the Isaphan/Raspberry-Rose and the Milk Chocolate/Passion Fruit.

Aux Merveilleux de Fred
If macarons aren’t your favorite and you’re in the mood for a meringue dessert, this is the place to visit. Even if you have never tried it before, you will fall for this light dessert coated with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
