I can't believe this is the first time I came to this charming little French spot. They have a wonderful varied selection of sandwiches, salads, soups, and quiche. There's also a Basque corner on the menu. The services cheerful and relaxed. Everything about my experience was perfect. Very laid-back and lovely

Such a lovely spot for a weekday breakfast before work! The fresh OJ was awesome

After first visiting in 2018, Café Lutécia established itself as one of my “must stop” places while in Philly. Always worth the wait to enjoy excellent food, service, and ambiance. A truly thoughtful restaurant and I am consistently delighted, thank you!!

This charming, family-owned spot is very cute and has a warm atmosphere. I like their pastries: we got croissant with jam and butter and cinnamon scone. We decided to go with the egg platters this time around. While initially quite plain – a canvas of just eggs – a sprinkle of salt and pepper brought them to life. The staff here couldn’t be friendlier, though I will say the popular weekend crowd means service can take a little while. So, if you’re planning a visit, a bit of patience will go a long way.

A fantastic, small, mom and pop French restaurant. Food is great, service is quick, and the staff makes you feel like one of the many regulars.

This place is super cute! Highly recommend! You can sit outside or inside and the servers are super nice. I got the breakfast sandwich on baguette which is pretty large. Paired the brie and egg and bacon and it was pretty good. Also tried the pear muffin, which was great heated up with butter on it.

A perfect neighborhood French cafe. A great place for breakfast, a astry or just a coffee. Large windows and outdoor seating make it a wonderful place to take a moment and watch the world go by.

Stopped for a quick lunch and we were thrilled. The tuna salad did not disappoint, and the quiche was excellent. A great family business that you definitely need to check out.

Family-owned cute little place that serves classic french fare. It can get pretty busy on weekends so plan accordingly. Soups are delicious, and the quiches are nice and airy. Will get some of the famous sandwiches next time.
Fuego. Go early beat the rush!
