Best Dishes at Café Biboune
Specialty Coffee (Fève Roaster)
DrinksCoffee sourced from Fève, a custom roaster that carefully selects and roasts beans. Their cappuccino and espresso are standouts in a neighborhood filled with tourist-heavy spots. The quality and care in the sourcing shows in every cup.
Jam-Filled Roll
PastriesA pastry highlight. The dough is laminated and flaky, and the jam is bright and not overly sweet. This is one of the pastries reviewers specifically mention as a must-try, often enjoyed with the house coffee.
Scrambled Eggs with Biscuits
BreakfastA classic breakfast item executed well. The eggs are scrambled gently to stay creamy, served alongside warm, buttery house-made biscuits. Simple but comforting, and the biscuits are worth ordering for their own sake.
Saint-Nectaire Grilled Cheese
BreakfastThe signature item that reviewers consistently mention. Fresh bread (often their house-made tartine base) grilled with creamy Saint-Nectaire cheese that melts perfectly. Simple but executed with good-quality ingredients sourced by the owners.
Tartine with Seasonal Toppings
BreakfastA rotating menu of tartines depending on what's in season. The bread is made in-house and the toppings change daily. Reviewers praise the simplicity and freshness of the approach. Common versions feature seasonal vegetables, preserves, or complementary proteins.

Open 8:30am-4pm Tuesday-Saturday only. Arrive before 10am for best pastry selection, especially on weekends. Afternoon walk-ins after 2pm are less crowded.
This space is tiny—converted coal shop with just a handful of tables and a narrow counter. It fills up quickly. Lunch reservations recommended.
Everything is made on-site each morning, which is why the menu is short. If something isn't available, it's because they sold out or it's not in season.
Rue du Cherche-Midi is touristy but this café stands out for genuine hospitality. Regulars and tourists mix here without the pretension of nearby spots.
