Café de Flore, Art Deco coffeehouse in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, France

Café de Flore occupies a corner position at 172 Boulevard Saint-Germain, featuring red leather seats, mahogany furnishings, and mirrored interior decorations.

Established in 1887, the café received its name from a sculpture of Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers, which stood across the boulevard.

The café became the central meeting point for philosophers Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir during the 1940s intellectual movements in Paris.

Located in the 6th arrondissement, this establishment maintains consistent operating hours from 7:30 AM to 1:30 AM every day of the week.
