Cafés open late in Paris

Most specialty cafés in Paris close by mid-afternoon. A small handful stay open into the evening — coffee bars that double as wine bars after 6pm, neighbourhood spots that serve a steady stream of locals after dinner, and the late roasteries that fire up the espresso machine until 9 or 10pm. Roasters lists every one. Roasters currently counts 343 cafés in Paris, #1 in France.

Use the app's 'open now' filter at any time — it knows what's actually open right now in Paris, including the late spots and the ones that closed an hour early because the owner went home.

Evening coffee in Paris skews specialty in two ways: serious espresso bars that pour shots into the night, and hybrid coffee/wine rooms where the same team that dials in the morning espresso pours natural wines after work. Both work for a long sit or a quick second cup.
