Although it’s not a bonafide, certified gluten-free restaurant, Café Pinson is nonetheless a successful café that proposes wheat-free dishes, no milk products, organic and vegan food, all in a healthy and innovative menu. Created and tastefully designed by Dorothée Meilichzon, a naturopathy nut, Café Pinson is proof that well-being, sociability and a passion for food can be successfully combined. It’s truly an experience to be had, whether for lunch, dinner, or Sunday brunch. Go on, give their mixed salads, vegetable curry, crumbles and vitamin-packed veloutés a go. On the sweet side of things, don’t forget about tea, smoothies, madeleines and latte!

Due to this health-conscious café’s overwhelming success, Café Pinson isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, and it’s certainly not finished inspiring new adepts in Paris: 3 addresses are tailored to amateur foodies who want home-cooked meals and foodies with a variety of intolerances who are craving real savors.

La Guinguette d’Angèle

Initially a detox caterer who proposed healthy buffets scarfed up during the lunch rush hour, the Guinguette d’Angèle fast became one of the capital’s alimentary heartthrobs. Yes, it’s true: organic food, gluten-free food and even vegan food can be glamorous, eaten while wearing Chanel, and sufficiently trendy for Kitsuné. It goes without saying that everyone wanted to get their hands on bite-sized munchies made from prairie flowers, kale burgers and striped tomatoes. So when Angèle finally opened her café in Paris, proposing healthy lunch boxes with quinoa and celery soup, hoards of foodies flocked to her doors.

Now that the brouhaha has passed, the café still has its faithful followers who haven’t abandoned their healthy lunch ritual. Constantly reinvented, the menu keeps new arrivals coming in. Picnic boxes allow for easy take-out and yummy meals: risotto, gluten-free falafels, matcha latte, you name it.

34 rue Coquillère, 75001 Paris. Mon.-Fri.: 11:45-3 p.m.
