Is there a more noble deed than to help us find good coffee? 🙏🏻 Cool that you still have a vlog feel to these.

Very cool, Jay. I think if/when you lean into this kind of content more regularly it’ll really pay off for you. Fully support the vlog in all its form but this stuff will drive your business. My $0.02

I totally agree. I'm having a lot of fun doing them too, which is always a good sign 🥳

Excellent video Jay. Packed full of recommendations. Like how you put each place in context by explaining what’s nearby - Pompidou, Montmartre etc. Looking forward to the wine bar guide!

Gonna try and keep that context coming! Funny how it can be the first thing I forget 😂

Happy to share!

Great video and content. Love the pacing. "Paris in My Pocket" is great branding as well. Keeping with the boisson theme, would love to see a video on the best places to drink (beer/wine/cocktails). Would also love to see the best vegan/vegetarian offerings in Paris (maybe featuring Puxan?). Keep up the great work.

[@JaySwanson]

Can do! Lots of good eats and drinks on the way =D

Nicely done! (Great shots to Nate too) you can tell you had so much fun with this video! We ❤️ KB! We drink it at home 🥰

Thank you Dixie! KB is definitely worth a little space in your suitcase

The Rose Latte at Cafe Nuances is one of my favorites! As a New Yorker, Still remember it...

For myself, wheelchair accessibility in Paris is a topic on the top of my list. We were there in 2018, it wasn't too bad. Maybe there were things we missed out on because we didn't know how the accessibility of places were going to be.

[@JaySwanson]

A wheelchair accessible itinerary is high on my list of things to cover. Gotta get on that!

[@andreawelsh4497]

Great timing! We just arrived in Paris yesterday evening after two failed attempts to get here over the last two years. We'll be sure to check out some of these places on our visit. Cooper is such a good boy 🐕

Great! There's so much to see and enjoy here. Have a fun trip!

You’re really ‘leveling up,’ Jay! Branding is terrific, the pace is energetic but not rushed, and providing specific content is excellent. I’ve loved all your videos but this is a whole new ballgame. Well done!

Thank you! I'm really having fun with it. Can't wait to dive deeper with it all

Just making a follow-up comment. Tryed Back In Black today, as recommended in your video. Oh my gosh! The coffee was amazing and so was the pesto bread with egg. Seriously delicious!

[@JaySwanson]

So glad you enjoyed them! They're near and dear 😊

[@fredrigaudeau]

I’ll add Terres de Café. They have several shops in different parts of the city. My preferred one is the Terres de Cafe St Honoré where Loïc and Étienne do a great job to welcome every customer.

[@JaySwanson]

They are a great one! They're in the full guide 👍☕ and you'll see them in the next video too

Happily found you thanks to the KZbin algorithm….subscribed, and will now work my way through your back catalogue. I joke with my wife that the best coffee in Paris is still well below average. We haven’t been in five years, your vlog gives me hope when we head back again soon.

Hey Jay, I picked up guide. Even though I come to Paris often. It is making a difference this time around. I’m here for the next two weeks. Maybe I’ll get chance to thank you personally. Thanks again.

Liking the more traditional French style music with this strand of your videos! Suggest bakery comparisons?? Croissants better in this one, baguettes in this one. Choclatiers also? Bars at different times of day/ family suitable eateries?? Just a few ideas that would be useful if visiting Paris...

So much fun stuff to eat and do!

[@lagerlad9019]

I found it difficult to get good coffee in Paris when I visited in 2019. I stumbled across Coutume, the coffee was brilliant. I liked so much I was prepared to walk back there the following day(5 kilometres) to sample their food, also excellent. I’m returning to Paris this year and looking forward to trying the other venues. Thanks

[@JaySwanson]

Happy I could introduce you to some more spots! I'm definitely familiar with the struggle to find good coffee here ☕☕

[@shyft09]

Nice! I've been here for 3 years and decent coffee every few blocks is something I really miss from London. Can confirm Partisan has great coffee 👍

[@JaySwanson]

The upturn in the coffee scene is a life saver ☕😊

[@grant88889]

If someone is willing to pay for a premium and unique coffee experience, I’d highly recommend Substance Cafe near Sentier. The owner always works the bar, speaks decent English, and goes above and beyond to provide a stellar coffee experience. But I’d say this is only for coffee geeks! You have to drink at the bar and there’s no to go drinks. All the other suggestions Jay makes are great - specifically love Partisan!

[@JaySwanson]

High on my list - it keeps getting recommended and I keep forgetting to try it!☕

[@fredrigaudeau]

Highly recommended, the experience offered by Joachim is unique (2020 Sprudge best coffeshop in the world award)

I'm specifically looking for a Mocha Chocalata Ya-Ya

The mocha and chocolate I can help with, but the ya ya comes only with the most special of marmalades

[@michaelmousley6604]

Thanks for the detailed coffee connoisseur advice ;) It was funny to be sitting opposite you this morning in partisan, it's not often you get to thank content creators in person :) I only tried Partisan from this list, as I went to substance cafe twice 😅 but I agree, I can fully recommend the partisan espresso :p

I moved to Paris in 2008, along with my expat friends we hated coffee in Paris. Fast word today, what a difference. Parisians taste for coffee were towards bitter. They didn’t know any better. A lot of the changes were influenced by the Italians and also whether you like them or not, Starbucks. Thank Buddha we no longer have to schlepp coffee from US or Italy.
