Sipping Coffee & Art in Paris

MOOD COFFEE

–66 Avenue Kléber, 75016 Paris–

If calm had a location pin in Paris, it would probably drop right here, at Mood Coffee. A space where every ray of sunlight, every sip, and even the silence feels placed.

The interiors are soft and minimal- creamy tones, curved chairs, and sunlight pouring through the windows in that very Parisian way that makes you want to cancel all plans.

But this isn’t just a café. Mood Coffee also doubles as a mini art gallery, displaying pieces by local artists that are available for sale. 

You come for your flat white, and suddenly you’re mentally rearranging your apartment to fit that abstract print you just fell in love with.

It’s the kind of place that makes you believe coffee and art might just be the best wellness combo there is – not all art needs a museum, and not all therapy needs a couch.

FCC (Flâneur Coffee Club)

–21 Rue Étienne Marcel, 75001 Paris–

If you’ve ever wanted to sip coffee, stare at art, and work on your inner peace all in the same breath – literally – FCC Paris might just be your dream come true.

This immersive concept space in the Marais blends café culture with multi-sensory art and wellness experiences. It’s a space where art, design, and sensory experiences converge. The minimalist interior, composed of sculptural metallic tables and fluid architectural lines, feels like stepping into a gallery designed for contemplation.

They’re not stopping at aesthetics, though. Recently, FCC teamed up with Corps Society and Spoade for The Breathrun Experience—a morning that began with a guided run followed by a breathwork and sound bath session.

And while that morning may have ended the way all good things in Paris do, it marked just the beginning of what this space is becoming.

FCC continues to host rotating art exhibitions and wellness events: think sound baths, breathwork sessions, and more moments designed to reconnect body, mind, and creativity.

Because in this corner of Paris, caffeine and calm go hand in hand—and really, who doesn’t love a place that combines endorphins, deep breaths, and great coffee?

HALLE SAINT-PIERRE

–2 Rue Ronsard, 75018 Paris–

If there’s one place in Paris that feels like a love letter to art in all its wild, unpolished glory, it’s Halle Saint-Pierre, a place that feels like someone decided to mix a museum, a bookshop, and a café into one big, art-filled heartbeat.

Once an old market hall, it now celebrates outsider art, raw creativity, and everything that doesn’t quite fit in traditional galleries, which is exactly what makes it so magnetic. It’s the kind of place where you can lose track of time, moving from one wild installation to another before realising you’ve been there for hours.

And because the French never forget the art of pause, there’s a cozy café inside, perfect for sitting under the glass roof with a coffee or tea after a deep dive into all that visual madness with the Sacré-Cœur watching over you. A quiet spot to process big thoughts, sketch something, or just breathe.

If you’re looking for a space in Paris where creativity and calm coexist – Halle Saint-Pierre might just be your sanctuary in the city.

SLOWE WELLNESS HOUSE

–30 Rue d’Enghien, 75010 Paris–

If you’ve ever wanted to do yoga, grab a matcha, and maybe rethink your life choices, all without leaving the same building – Slowe Wellness House is the place.

Tucked away in the 10th arrondissement, Slowe brings together movement, mindfulness, and really good coffee. It’s a wellness studio that feels nothing like a gym. Minimal, light-filled, and quietly stylish, it’s where you come to breathe, stretch, and reboot.

Between yoga, Pilates, and strength classes, there’s a café serving organic treats, smoothies, and  lattes. It’s not just about fitness here. it’s about slowing down, finding balance, and being around people who are all trying to do the same.

Because sometimes wellness isn’t about escape, it’s about finding a space in the middle of Paris that feels like you finally exhaled.

AUX ARTS ETC…

–15 Quai de Montebello, 75005 Paris–

Right by the Seine, facing Notre-Dame, sits Aux Arts Etc – a café-gallery that feels like a love letter to creativity itself.

Where your cappuccino comes with a side of inspiration. The walls are lined with ever-changing artworks – from bold canvases to delicate sketches, all by local and emerging artists. You can sip, stare, and if the moment feels right, even take a piece home.

The atmosphere is exactly what you’d want in a café-gallery hybrid: relaxed, unpretentious, and full of quiet charm. Sunlight filters through the big windows, and for a moment, it feels like Paris itself has paused to admire the art with you.
