Angelina, Tea house and café in the 1st arrondissement, Paris, France.
Angelina is a historic tea house and café located at 226 Rue de Rivoli in Paris, featuring Belle Époque interior design with ornate decorative elements and large mirrors created by architect Édouard-Jean Niermans.
Founded in 1903 by Austrian confectioner Anton Rumpelmayer, Angelina was named after his daughter-in-law and quickly became a favored meeting place for Parisian high society during the Belle Époque era.
The café has welcomed distinguished guests such as Marcel Proust and Gabrielle Chanel, and is celebrated for its signature rich hot chocolate called l'Africain and the classic Mont-Blanc pastry created by Rumpelmayer himself.
The establishment opens Monday through Thursday from 7:30 AM to 7:00 PM, Friday until 7:30 PM, and Saturday through Sunday from 8:30 AM to 7:30 PM, with limited wheelchair access available.
Angelina's traditional hot chocolate recipe has remained unchanged for over 120 years, maintaining its thick, pudding-like consistency that distinguishes it from other Parisian cafés and continues to draw visitors from around the world.
