Café George is the new kid on the Saint-Germain block — a dog-friendly coffee shop that opened in September 2025 on rue du Cherche-Midi. You'll find specialty coffee pulled on a Rancilio, a healthy-leaning food menu, matcha, shakes, and a Sunday brunch buffet that's already drawing the neighborhood crowd. The interior, designed by Veronica Solari, is minimal-chic and photogenic — and yes, your dog gets its own menu.

Go for the Sunday brunch buffet (10h–14h, €35 pp) and bring your dog — they get their own menu.
Saint-Germain's new dog-friendly specialty coffee spot
Café George landed on rue du Cherche-Midi in September 2025 and has quickly become one of the most photographed new addresses in the 6th. The concept is simple but well-executed: specialty coffee (espresso at €3.50, flat white at €5.50, all pulled on a Rancilio), healthy food, matcha, and shakes — all in a 50m² space designed by Veronica Solari with a minimal-chic aesthetic that's tailor-made for Instagram. What sets it apart, though, is the dog-friendly angle: they actually have a menu for your four-legged companion, which makes it a magnet for Paris's dog-owning crowd.
The Sunday brunch buffet (€35 per person, 10:00–14:00) is the thing to go for — a healthy spread that's been getting buzz on social media since the café opened. Weekdays are quieter and better if you want to settle in with a flat white and get some work done. Hours vary by day (Mon–Thu 10–18h, Fri–Sun 10–19h), so check before you head over. It's still early days, but the coffee is solid, the space is genuinely lovely, and the dog menu is a charming touch that you won't find at the classic Saint-Germain cafés down the street.
