Café Marlette Montmartre: brunch and homemade pastries on rue des Abbesses
A delicious break at the foot of the Butte
At 45 rue des Abbesses, a short walk from Abbesses metro station and the Sacré-Cœur, Marlette is Montmartre’s foodie stop: homemade brunch served all day, on the terrace or inside, after a stroll up to place du Tertre or before heading back down to Pigalle.
Come for breakfast, brunch with friends, a seasonal lunch or an afternoon treat, in a setting of wood and blue banquettes, with a team that takes great care of you.
