Café de la Paix

The famous Café de la Paix is at the Place de l’Opéra near the Palais Garnier opera in Paris. It was originally built in the Haussmann style like the Grand-Hôtel, which it served. Paix means peace, and though it is at a busy intersection and buzzing with tourists can be a restorative spot to drink a café crème and eat a croque-madame.
