Museum cafés in Paris can be just as wonderful as viewing the exhibitions.
I have put together a few of my favourite cafés to stop and take a break. Some are fabulous lunch or afternoon tea destinations despite the museum. Museum cafés are often forgotten in the rush to try the latest brasserie.
Don’t forget when planning your adventures Tuesday is often a “closed” day for many museums and their restaurants. xv
