Holybelly 5

Best brunch spot in Paris! A place that truly sticks to their motto “it’s good because we care”. Visited this place upon recommendation to which they certainly exceeded our expectations. An extensive menu with yummy options ranging from pancakes to eggs benedict. The food served was truly rich in flavour and quality! as well being presented quite nicely too. Kind and welcoming staff, particularly John, who seated us and even offered us the option to be spoken to/order in english. Which we really appreciated as the treatment we received in Paris so far was unfortunately very negative. The staff’s kindness and patience overall was so comforting! The atmosphere was great with an artistic vibe which suited the style of the place quite well. Definitely worth a revisit when in Paris again.

It’s a super professionally run and immensely popular American style breakfast restaurant in Paris. I would say that it was probably made a bit European with no oversized portions and food that is less likely to kill you BUT I don’t feel you really need to target healthy in an American breakfast so I am a bit conflicted. The eggs are wonderful here, so are pancakes, both sweet and savory stacks, the sausage is great, the potatoes fried with herbs to perfect crunch and the bacon can be added to almost anything with great benefit. And yes, there is filter coffee here, not the Americano that I seem to properly dislike. The atmosphere is great, love the vibe and the service. I won’t run here but if you are a breakfast person, chances are you will be extremely happy here.

Easily one of the best American style breakfasts I’ve had. The menu does not have great variety but their pancakes truly are superb. The savoury stack is my pick, beautifully done bacon and eggs with some of the best pancakes I’ve had. Coat it generously with their maple syrup and potent hot sauce and it completes the experience. Coffee wise, the noisette is a great pick that’s not acidic but fragrant and smooth. The staff were also lovely, helpful and chatty L

Came here on a Friday morning for brunch, waited 15 minutes in line for a two-top. This upscale American breakfast diner has a great vibe and delivers amazing food. I had their two eggs, which were rich and flavourful, along with some delicious maple bacon and their unique asparagus side of the day. However, the service was rushed and lacking and it was quite difficult to get service in French; this is a tourist spot that doesn’t cater to locals. But worth the trip if you want a sophisticated American breakfast.

Holybelly is, without a doubt, the highlight of our dining experience in Paris. From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for something special. The cozy yet lively atmosphere, paired with the friendliest staff, set the tone for what turned out to be the best meal we had during our trip. The eggs and sides were perfectly cooked, with each component beautifully prepared and seasoned. The plain stack pancakes were light, fluffy, and absolutely delicious—simple yet satisfying. It’s clear that every detail of the food is crafted with care, making every bite memorable. The ambiance is vibrant without feeling overwhelming, making it a fantastic spot for brunch lovers. Even with a crowd, the service was impeccable, attentive, warm, and efficient. If you’re in Paris and looking for a place that perfectly balances flavor, vibe, and service, Holybelly is the one. It wasn’t just a meal; it was an experience, and easily the best we had in this city. A must-visit!
