There are so many nice tea rooms in Paris, but this is one of my favorites, just off the cobbled pedestrian street behind the St-Gervais-St-Protais Church (closest metros Hotel de Ville or Pont Marie). Open noon through 10pm (except Mondays), they serve a large selection of teas, pastries, fruity cocktails, coffees, salads and light meals in a casual and bright, white-wash dining room with large windows. Brunch available weekends, and a sprawling terrace in fine weather (see the pic on the website).
