Tea Shops In Paris?
I was wondering if (since I'm not going to London anymore) anyone knew a nice tea shop in Paris with variety and qualtity.
Similar to those in London. Thanks |
The most celebrated tea shops in Paris are those of Mariage Freres. They are also among the most beautiful retail stores I have ever seen. There are several locations. Laduree is also a well known pattisserie/tea salon with several locations.

Here is a bit more information about the purveyor of my favorite teas:

And here is some information about some of their teas to prepare you...including my current favorite, Marco Polo. If you are a tea lover, you may want to make Mariage Freres among your first places to visit in Paris.

You can get tea, coffee, and pastries at Fauchon on Place Madeleine. You can also shop here.

While the aforementioned places are very popular among tourists, locals will often prefer the Palais des Thes http://www.palaisdesthes.com/eng/index.cgi

Try the French Breakfast tea at Mariage Frères--it smells of chocolate but tastes nothing like that. My husband adores it.
