Ten Belles
One of the favourites of the Bellville trendy set. Pleasant atmosphere, great coffee and a small but excellent selection of snacks and light meals.

Sometimes only that toastie with a French flair—the croque—will do. And there's nowhere that does a better version than here. Popular and pop.
Combine a French penchant for American pop culture with local coffee traditions. All you'd want from a Paris café with the bonus that you can have Tex-Mex too.
Best known as a place to buy excellent coffee to take home, its upcycled salon with lots of greenery is an oasis for a pit stop between bouts of sightseeing.
Angelina is legendary in Parisian cafe culture, and well known around the world, albeit more for its sweets. Opened in 1903 by an Austrian confectioner, the main reason to come today are the delectable puddings, including the Mont Blanc, as well as the decadent chocolat l’Africain, a hot chocolate so thick it almost counts as a pudding as well. With a beautifully designed Belle Epoque interior, this is a glorious spot to indulge your sweet tooth. Open Monday to Thursday 7:30am to 7pm, Friday 7:30am to 7:30pm, and weekends 8:30am to 7:30pm.
For an almost painfully chic café experience, Le Café Marly takes the prize with ease. Located under the arcades of the Richelieu Wing of the Louvre, with a perfect view of the famous Pyramid, this half modern, half Napoleon III style brasserie is a great spot to refuel after a morning appreciating art, and is frankly worth visiting for the location alone. Open daily from 8am to 2am.
