Gâteaux ok

Nous avons testé le carrot cake et le gâteau clémentine vanille. Le carrot cake était assez compact, pas très aérieux mais bon et le gâteau clémentine était très/trop fort en goût (goût de la peau de clémentine) et compact. L'endroit est petit. Pas fan de la déco assez impersonnelle. Les boissons sont assez chères (5 € pour un chai latte moyen). Le sandwich triangle était lui plutôt bon (à base d'humous de betterave). Bref pas un incontournable mais quand même ok pour certains produits. L'offre de gâteaux est assez variée. Il faudra restester d'autres gâteaux

Pros: Beaucoup de choix

Simply delicious

If you are in Paris, do yourself a favour and have breakfast at Cloud Cakes. The croissants are flaky and buttery, coffee is good, cupcakes are sweet, the ginger beetroot latte is delicious and the almond croissant is TO DIE FOR. Highly recommended.

Best vegan croissant

It's been years since I had a croissant as good as this one. The chocolate cake was also delicious and the matcha latte was nice. Perfect place to go to when in Paris for a full vegan-French experience!

Pros: Yummy sweet foods, Friendly staff, Nice atmosphere

Best vegan pain almond croissant!

Over two visits we tried a cupcake, a slice of chocolate cake, plain croissant, and almond croissant. The last one nailed it! The space is pleasant, and the staff friendly. Nice hangout spot.

Jolie découverte

Le curcuma Spice latte est incroyable et le carrot cake délicieux. Un endroit très agréable où s'y cacher par temps pluvieux malgré que l'endroit soit assez petit

A vegan croissant

We went here for breakfast so we could experience a vegan croissant, they tasted pretty wholesome! We could not resist the peanut butter and chocolate muffins. Good coffee, free WiFi, stylish and clean interior, polite staff.

Pros: Tasty cakes, Good coffee, Nice bathroom

had to walk out empty handed

We came on a Sunday morning and the place was full. We were told that we could be seated in 15 min. We asked if we could reserve a table as we had seen a reserved sign on one of the other tables. And the place was way too small to wait in, so we wanted to take a walk and then come back. She told us it was not possible. We then asked if we could just buy the cake and coffee to go then. She then told is that the 40 something cupcakes and 3 full size cakes on display were NOT for sale. We then left empty handed.

Pros: The cake look delicious

Cons: horrible service , they display food that are not for sale

delicious!

We went for breakfast here on our last day, they have vegan cream cheese toast with fig so that's what I was aiming for. Sadly they were out of figs but I got given some lovely strawberries instead.

My husband went for the pancakes which were also delicious.

Favorite Vegan Spot in Paris!

We visited Cloud Cakes looking for some vegan croissants, good coffee, as well as a treat for our Christmas dinner, and that’s exactly what we got! The store is in a beautiful neighborhood of Paris, the shop was nice and the staff were super helpful. The first time we went we left with cappuccinos, four croissants and a black forrest bûche noel for Christmas. Everything was absolutely incredible, moist, and delicious. We went back yet again for some more croissants, and found that they have different kinds of croissants that they rotate, two kinds every day. This time they had an almond croissant which was the best I had ever had (vegan or non vegan). I recommend anyone to give Cloud Cakes a visit!

Pros: Perfect Parisian all vegan coffee shop with croiss, The perfect place for a sweet treat for now or lat

Excellente initiative de pâtisserie vegan spécialisée dans les cupcakes.

Les pâtisseries sont abordables, n'ont véritablement rien à envier à leurs consœurs non végétaliennes et des boissons chaudes sont également disponibles. Un ou deux choix de cupcakes vegans sont généralement disponibles.
La seule chose sur laquelle mon expérience ne trouvera pas entièrement satisfaction est l'accueil du clientqui aura toujours été assez particulièrement laborieux (l'associée chargé du comptoir semblant avoir quelques difficultés à communiquer en français ou même à afficher le moindre signe de joie pour son travail).
Wifi disponible et cadre très mignon !

Pros: Cupcakes... Vegan... Some without gluten

Cons: Too few gluten free options, Difficulty of communication with the waitress

croissannnnttssss omg

This place is awesome. I couldn't wait to try vegan croissants, because I hate to be missing out on them just because I'm vegan ! They were so delicious. Coffee was great, atmosphere was nice and also the peanut butter chocolate muffin was enormous and tasty. I wish I lived in Paris!

Nice little cafe

Second Update, after visiting many times already. :)

For a coffee shop, the offer is quite nice both on the sweet menu (cupcakes, croissants, cakes, cinnamon roll), and on the drink menu (many types of hot drinks including matcha, curcuma or pumpkin spice lattes).
Everything is yummy!

The best vegan coffee shop in Paris, definitely worth stopping by whenever possible.

-----------------------------
Update of my review after visiting again for Sunday brunch.
Brunch was quite good and copious, as it includes two drinks (1 cold & 1 hot), one croissant, one main plate (chickpea wrap when I visited), and a generous portion of tasty waffles.
So, we were very satisfied, and probably coming back soon again. :)
As the place is not big, I'd recommend booking a table in advance if going for the brunch.

---------------------------------
Visited in September 2016, just a couple days after their opening.

I first saw Cloud Cakes a while ago in one of the "Vegan Place" events organized by the L214 association; and I'm glad they have now started their own cafe.

We visited during tea time, and we had the carrot cake and the red velvet cake. They also had cupcakes and croissants; and I think sometimes they offer savory snacks as well.
To be honest, I found the cakes to be too sweet for my taste, but to be fair, I think that's a normal sweetness level for Paris.
I thought also that hot drinks could be a little larger.

You order first on the counter; and then you wait at the table. The staff was friendly and they spoke English.

They do offer a set menu for lunch; excepts on Sundays, when they offer a brunch.
I'll visit again to try their food; but for the time being, I'm afraid they haven't convinced me with their sweets.

Good but needs improvement

I’ve had some pretty good food here (have been there for breakfast, lunch and brunch), but they seem to need better organization. On multiple occasions I’ve arrived only to learn that they are out of all lunch options (at around 1pm, standard work lunch time in Paris) or completely out of pastries even early in the morning. Most of their staff is nice but some have been quite unfriendly. The brunch was really good when I went but a little on the expensive side.

Great brunch!

On Sunday mornings, they offer a brunch for 25€, which is a fair price in Paris, including : a hot drink and a cold drink, a muffin, a full plate of tofu scramble and other food, and a plate of vegan pancakes. It was all very good, the staff very friendly, the place & tableware cute. I definitely recommend it!

Pros: Great brunch, Friendly staff, Instagram-esque place

Cons: Come in early, since the place is not very big
