The moment brunch is served on Sunday morning, you’ll understand why Parisians of the 9th arrondissement guard this spot so jealously. Hotel Amour, just off of Rue des Martyrs, far exceeds its trendy reputation, and families often flock here on weekends to enjoy its wonderful homemade granola while the children choose from their own, special menu.
The Location
As suggested by the establishment’s name, Hotel Amour has become the place to rendez-vous in the capital. The sunny terrace is always full on summer evenings and the dining room is packed every weekend for lunch and dinner – very popular among Parisians who want to be seen. But don’t be fooled by its reputation as a temple for the trendy, the lovely garden, welcoming staff and a tasty menu, with items designed just for children, all make it an ideal family spot.
The Food
Brunch is a truly gourmet experience at Hotel Amour, where the staff understands that Sunday mornings are sacred, with delicious hot drinks – a selection of Mariage Frères and Japanese teas – and an assortment of dishes typical of a late breakfast: eggs Benedict, scrambled eggs, bagels … For those who prefer something a bit lighter, choose from their menu of fresh salads (Niçoise, Parisian…) and don’t forget to try their homemade granola (accompanied by freshly squeezed orange juice). What better way to start the day?
For Kids
The restaurant has high chairs for the little ones, and strollers slip easily between tables. The kitchen has also kept children in mind, creating an entire menu dedicated to their preferences, with burgers and fries and ham and pasta shells. Ideal for a family lunch – especially in the summer, when kids can happily frolic through the garden of this central city spot.
Les Louves loves to enjoy the garden on weekends at lunchtime, when most other fans are not yet awake, and families can soak up this magical atmosphere in peace.
