Description
At the heart of the Latin Quarter, just steps from the majestic Panthéon, Jozi Brunch Pantheon shines as a cozy culinary gem. Located at 3 Rue Valette, this café born from a love for South African flavors and Parisian warmth offers an authentic and generous brunch experience. Opening at 8 AM on weekdays, the friendly team welcomes early risers with specialty coffees (espresso, filter, cold brew) and an array of plant-based milks . On weekends, doors open at 9 AM, until 5:30 PM.
The brunch served at the table begins with fresh juice, a hot drink, and sweet offerings: fluffy pancakes, fresh fruit, granola, pastries, and maple syrup. Then comes the savory part, featuring toasts (avocado, salmon, beet) or a varied meat/cheese platter with green sala. Guests praise the ingredient quality and Instagram-worthy presentation.
The space is bright and tastefully decorated, with a few terrace tables overlooking Rue Valette, and a warm, colorful interior . The vibe is relaxed: students, couples and tourists mix in a welcoming setting, ideal for conversation or remote work – with free Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The South African owners are noted for attentive and friendly service .
Fun fact: some patrons mention finding here "the best pain au chocolat in Paris" for a morning grab‑and‑go. Reservations are not accepted, so arriving early on weekends is essential to avoid 5‑30 minute waits .
