Located right at the entrance inside Printemps, this is a fancy little cafe to grab a quick bite or snack and fuel up before or after shopping. The lines can get long with only 1-2 staff members. Expect service to be slow. I love the green color theme and modern Parisian style. They offer coffee, tea, juice, pastries, and cookies. Albeit expensive with a juice costing $14! Definitely a treat if you decide to stop here.

Located inside the luxurious French department store Printemps this cafe is both casual and a nice place to relax. I had read about the guava croissant and decided to have one. Alonzo told me that he would heat it for a few minutes as it was refrigerated. I wondered if these are made daily or not? The warmed up croissant had a pleasant aroma of guava which was in the center. The croissant was flaky and buttery and actually resembled a Danish with the pastry cream and the small round of guava jam. I had expected the guava to be inside the croissant similar to the way the French chefs do with day old almond croissants (slice it in half, add pastry cream, pop it in the oven to caramelize and dusted with powdered sugar. A special blend of medium and dark roasted beans are specially made by Devocion for Printemps. At $7 it is the same price as Fauchon. Currently only cards are accepted. I had a pleasant visit and then went to see the store.

I enjoyed the matcha au printemps (w/ guava & lavender), spiced pear chai latte (understated pear taste), curry chicken patty, Caribbean chocolate sea salt cookie (crispy/crunchy), banana bread. Mocha was just ok to me - didn't taste that chocolatey. Beautiful ambiance, Very pretty place !

I got a chance to visit the place which I really loved it! A place with good coffee and delicious pastries. It's inside the "Printemps" building in the first floor. Close to the entry. You order and they give you a number. Then, they bring it to your table and there is no reservation in advance. I chose " Pain suisse Haitien" it is a marble croissant filled with cream pastry so delicious and fluffy! Then, Hazelnut financier with orange flavor ( I wish if they had added the custom paper to my pastries 😊👍🏻) and of course a blend drip coffee. You can enjoy it in a stylish place and nice atmosphere! I really recommend this place to anyone who loves good coffee and delicious pastries! I may go back for more dégustations soon.👍🏻
