Benoît Castel, a dream brunch to be enjoyed as a group

The Benoit Castel Brunch in Paris

It is one of the best bakeries in Paris. In Belleville , the Pâtisserie-Boulangerie Benoît Castel, which houses a tea room area, has become in a few years a real institution, with the line that goes with it.

The place

Benoit Castel's bakery with organic flours

The secret of its success? Natural products and hyper qualified, organic flours, rigorous sourcing and a desire to reconnect with the simple pleasures of the art of French living. Its bread , croissants, panettone and cabbage will make all foodies salivate.

What we do not know is that the address offers completely delirious all-you-can-eat brunches every weekend, installed on large wooden tables in the heart of the bakery, just above the workshop, with a view direct on the sumptuous bread oven.
