Breizh Café Marais

Breizh Café Marais is home to our favorite crêpes in Paris and unsurpassed oysters. Here, Meg Zimbeck of Paris by Mouth describes Breizh Café Marais:

Breizh Café is by far our favorite crêperie in Paris. Traditionalists like me, who always order a complète (ham, cheese, egg), appreciate the higher quality organic ingredients and the crispy lacy edges of their buckwheat galettes. We’ve included Breizh Café among our favorite restaurants in Paris and our guide to eating in the Marais.
