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.
