Les Philosophes is a corner café on the busy Rue Vieille du Temple that serves homemade bistro food all day, at prices that stay out of eye-watering territory. The onion soup is made with chicken stock, which makes it lighter than the usual brooding bowl, and the quiches come in bacon or vegetable. The croissants arrive from a good bakery up the road, with no surcharge for dunking one in your coffee. The terrace is where people linger and watch the street.

French onion soup
“The French onion soup is lighter than most, with a richly flavored chicken stock standing in for more typical beef or veal, and the salads are dotted with premium charcuterie and raw milk cheeses paired with seasonal fruits and vegetables.”
The Infatuation -
Quiche
“The quiches are always excellent, with a buttery base filled either with classic bacon or vegetables.”
The Infatuation -
Croissant
“And it’s the only café where we’ll actually eat a croissant, seeing as they source them from one of the city’s best bakeries just up the road (and don't charge a crazy supplement for the privilege of dunking it in their organic café crème).”
