For most visitors to Paris, the 16th and 17th arrondissements mean views of La Tour Eiffel, elegant comfortable residential neighbourhoods and great museums.

And they’re not wrong – this area is home to some of Paris’ most iconic attractions.

But would you like us to let you in on a little secret? We’ve found four other chocolate-flavored reasons to visit the area, which we’d love to share.

Read on below for our picks for the best hot chocolate in Paris’ 16th and 17th arrondissements!

Carette

This hot chocolate has nothing to be ashamed of, and everything to be proud of. As creamy and smooth as can be, the hot chocolate at Carette is the perfect reward after a stroll around the Place du Trocadéro.

Angelina Maillot

If you don’t have the time (or courage) to queue at Angelina rue de Rivoli, you can still pop into their branch in the 17^th to enjoy a hot chocolate. Of course, the place is not as impressive as the main tearoom, but the result is the same, right?

Beauty Cakes

Above all, this girly tearoom attracts visitors with their delicious flashy-colored cupcakes. But don’t forget to taste their hot chocolate! Served in a bowl, the homemade drink will take you back to childhood.

La Pâtisserie des Rêves

Created by Philippe Conticini, a world renowned pastry chef, La Patisserie des Rêves will thrill the sweet tooth. As for the hot chocolate, we couldn’t decide between the praline flavored or the caramel. They’re both delicious. And no, you’re not dreaming.
