Deelish!

We ate both lunch and breakfast there. We were a group of 4, only 1 vegan, but everyone was quite happy with their meals. They have vegan muffins (yum) and I had a terrific vegan sandwich for lunch. The carnivores and the vegetarian were also pleased with their food.

Pros: good selection, good food

Cons: place is small, people smoke at outside tables, smoke comes in the door

atenciosos

pedimos um café pós almoço e meu, que comi vegano, veio com um chocolatinho 88% cacau (sem leite) enquanto o da minha esposa, que não comeu vegano, veio com um ao leite..

Pros: simpatia, sabor

Cons: preço não muito amigável

There's always something vegan to eat

As with other Le Pain Quotidien branches in Paris, the menu has many vegan options (look for the "v" mark) including toasts, soups, mains; but also viennoiseries (croissants, torsades, cinnamon rolls) and desserts (chocolate cake, crumble).
Plant-based milk (oat/almond) is also available for drinks.

The service is a bit slow; but there are many seats so it's a safe option for having vegan food or a snack during the day.

Pros: several vegan dishes, opening hours, location

Cons: not all vegan

Gute Lage, sonst enttäuscht

Erst lange warten, dann unfreundliche Mitarbeiterin, dann fast ungenießbar Kaffee, lieblos serviert.
Mehr haben wir nicht gegessen oder getrunken. Die Lage ist sehr zentral und das Angebot schien vielfältig. Das Essen sag richtig lecker aus!

Pros: Vegane Optionen, Preis für Paris/die Lage okay, Englische Karte

Cons: Unfreundliches Personal , Kaffee fast ungenießbar

Croissant vegano inesquecível!

O croissant de hibiscus é formidável, assim como o croque du jardinier, que ainda conta com opção de um delicioso pão sem glúten.

Good vegan blueberry muffin

Went to try get a vegan pain au chocolat, but sadly there weren’t any when I went, or none left. There was a lovely vegan blueberry muffin though, went down a treat with a coffee! Hoping to go back and get my hands on a pain au chocolat!

not unique but okay

nice ambience (but the same as in every restaurant of this chain i've been). when we went there (jan 2022) there was no vegan pain au chocolat available. the coffee was quite sour and bitter.

Pros: ambience, vegan options labelled

Cons: no vegan pain au chocolat, not the best coffee

Good

I took a breakfast there with a vegan pain au chocolat and a coffee for 6€, which is quite reasonable. Pain au chocolat was good, however it was a tad dry

Pros: Friendly staff, Calm

Cons: Chocolatine was a bit dry

Good place for a snack

This coffee shop is fully organic with a few vegan options for the pastries. My girlfriend and I went there for a snack. The hot chocolate is nice (you can choose how much chocolate you pour into your soy or almond milk) and the pastries are good as well. It’s a bit pricy but reasonable for the neighborhood. A big negative point : the place is crowed and the staff is too busy (we had to go three times to the counter to remind them they forgot : spoons, water and take our order).

Pros: All organic, Few vegan options

Cons: A bit pricy, Lack of staff

It was great!

This place is really great! It has only a few vegan options, like the brunch and falafel bowl, but it has a lot of vegetarian alternatives. Super delicious!

Pros: Delicious food

Cons: A bit expensive

Happy to have vegan and non-vegan options

When I’m eating out with people who aren’t vegan I’m so so happy when there’s obviously « normal » food for them and vegan options for me. And I had a hard time choosing among the vegan options!

Good Vegan options

Went here for brunch and ordered two things because I couldn't decide! Avocado toast and Crunola parfait off the breakfast menu. Well worth the trip!

Pros: Vegan options!

Delicious vegan brunch

I had the all day vegan brunch which was very tasty. I've eaten here previously and the staff have always been very friendly and welcoming. Meat dishes on the menu too but plenty of choice for veggies & vegans.

Pros: Clearly marked vegan options. Super friendly staff

Cons: A little expensive

Pretty food.

Great matcha latte and a beautiful coconut dragonfruit bowl (personally it looked prettier than it tasted and felt that it lacked a little in flavour, but still great to find vegan options).

Pros: Beautiful interior., Lovely friendly staff., Plenty of options.

Cons: Relatively expensive., Food lacked a little in flavour.

The same tasty old song

There're at least three vegan meals apart from vegan side dishes and the only dessert on the menu.
They're very good but the menu changes 4 times a year along with the seasons so be prepared to eat the same thing for a very long time.

Be careful, I don't think the gluten free bread is vegan

Pros: real vegan meal

Cons: only one vegan desset, menu changes 4 times a year

interesting

Bonne adresse qui propose des options vegan lorsqu'on a pas mieux autour.
En général j'évite les chaînes de restaurant mais celle-ci a su jouer le jeu en mettant à la carte plusieurs plats vegan qui évoluent au fils des saisons.
Le service peut parfois être pas très amical.

Pros: vegan option

Meh

I got the botanical brunch. It was more of a sample platter than an integrated meal. Very filling. Marked as vegan but came with butter.

Pros: Nice atmosphere

Cons: expensive

Filling Winter Warmth Meal!

As a vegan traveling with my dad in Paris, he put me in charge of all the meals out. Le Pain Quotidien was the first place we came across thanks to happy cow, and it was amazing. We must've hit it at a good time because it wasn't too busy, and there were lots of vegan and veggie options. I got a colorful salad and an enormous bowl of soup-maybe pea or lentil? With bread on the side of both, naturally. We also got hot lemon tea. I loved the rustic decor and homey-feel to the place.

I didn't get a chance to taste the food

We went in sometime in the afternoon, were led to a table, sat down, browsed the menu for quite a while, during which time the waitress asked if we were ready to order or needed a few more minutes, but only when we asked to order did she tell us that more than half the menu was over, with only 1-2 hot dishes (1 with meat) left. Granted it was late, but why let give people the menu, have them make up their mind, and only then tell them nothing's available?!
I would've gone out at that stage, but my bf wanted something to eat and got one of the specials. It had meat so didn't try it, but the dish was way, way over priced (the most expansive on the menu) for its size - and I'm a small person with a small stomach and usually don't have any problems in the portion size area, All in all, didn't leave us wanting to come back.

Pros: cozy interior

Cons: service

A little skeptic

My boyfriend and I went here, and I ordered the Detox Salad and he ordered the Chili Sin Carne, both of which were marked vegan. However, my boyfriend was fairly sure the chili contained beef. We hope it was a substitute, but unfortunately that doesn’t seem likely. He is only vegetarian while I am vegan, and it did not bother him as much as it would have for me. (The idea being that it is worse to throw the animal away). Also, my “vegan” salad came with real butter for the bread. It was a little concerning, which is disappointing since it’s a very common chain in Paris that would be a great place for vegans.

Is the chili did not contain beef, the place was only okay. The salad was delicious, and simple, just a few veggies, lentils and oil, and it was more expensive than it was worth. The service was again only okay. Our waiter spoke English to us as soon as he realized French was not our native language, and he was very nice, but it took a long time. In addition, the place was incredibly cramped and uncomfortable. The only reason I would go back is because it is convenient (but I don’t think I will because I’m not sure if I trust was they consider to be vegan).
