I normally do keep a hush hush on restaurants that I have bad experience. But when my son been involved into it. I will revolk. We wouldn't stopped in here if it was full. It wasn't even half full at all. Our server was just down right rude to us. She seemed to just want to be done serving in a quick matter. She would have been better working somewhere else. I came back to support but since all this happened. I'm not coming back. I have a toddler. They'll have good days or bad days eating out. They asked for a high chair and didn't provide. Yes, I was stressing out but by getting almost all the servers staring at us because I can't control my son. Wasn't helping. And also adding "what else do you need" was another add on. She messed up on our ticket to the point she would have gotten a better tip on what my husband provided us only cash to eat out. It took almost all our money. That was her fault cause I could see on her face she was pissed.
The only positive side is the manager provided us what my mother wanted to eat which only has for breakfast. I don't come here often to know the time changed and also in the menu for lunch hours. I would have known better to check online so that's our fault.
This is a long rant but now I could understand why this place keeps on having new hires for servers.

Went with my oldest daughter this morning just before her JrRotc competition, and I can safely say that we were both satisfied with what we got...she got the Belgian Waffle with 2 strips of Bacon and I got the Breakfast Tots and plus Ashley our server was awesome.

I recommend the whole grain pancakes as they have a grain that contrasts well with the moist batter. Add butter and only a small amount of syrup.

The breakfast tots are also excellent if a bit dense. The use of a bowl makes the layering easier to understand. There could be less beans and tots but overall the flavors match.

The John Wayne Benedict was ok, a well-done biscuit where the hollandaise and the egg mixed too much and the meat is fatty as well. I would use a different meat or other things to round out the dish and reduce the richness.

The hamburger steak was dry and bland, you can skip that.

Service is really nice and this is more diner than coffee shop - or maybe more old definition of a coffee shop. I definitely recommend the whole grain pancakes and probably the breakfast tots.

I’ve been coming to Paris Coffee Shop for 30 years. The new ownership absolutely NAILED the renovation and maintained food quality - dare I say even improved it a smidge?

I miss the brown mugs, but there’s something deeply sentimental about the new mugs being the same style and shape - just a different color.

Continuity is wild.

On August 31 of 2025 I ordered the egg sandwich with avocado and a side of fruit. I finished my fruit first then moved on to my sandwich while I was in the middle of eating my sandwich I came across a string of hair in my food. Made me feel so disgusted just knowing that I was even eating that while it was a hair on my sandwich. I immediately told the manager she proceeded to say she couldn’t see the hair even though she is wearing glasses. I’m steady trying to show her the piece of hair she still doesn’t see it, So she grabs the owner to ask if he can spot the hair, he couldn’t see it either so my boyfriend had to pick up the piece of hair just for them to finally see it. They replaced it and proceeded to bring me another sandwich this time I thoroughly examine it since the first time I was an eating a sandwich with a piece of hair. On the second sandwich they brought me I find not ONE BUT TWO pieces of hair just made me want to vomit. They asked me if I wanted anything else but I respectfully declined since that was the second time of me finding hair in my food. I would say don’t eat here but if you choose to, that’s your choice just make sure to thoroughly examine your food!

Very good cafe. The layout is nice and clean and there’s plenty of seating. The food was flavorful and the portions are above average. The staff is nice and welcoming. Our waiter was attentive, which enhanced the overall experience. It’s a very good option for breakfast.

This is your classic diner with classic options and classic taste. Parking is a little tricky and make sure to get there early - there will be a wait - but the food is well worth it. A great breakfast spot in Fort Worth. Would definitely recommend the chicken and waffles.

I’m upset at myself for waiting so long to come here. Of course I’ve heard about it and it was on my list for so long and finally gave it a chance. It wasn’t too busy so that may have played a part in it but still, the food was AMAZING! They have very interesting options for all preferences. I had the brisket Benedicts and were really really good. My friend had the chicken and waffles and the chicken was extra crispy and was great too. Our waiter took his time and was very patient and helpful so that was very much appreciated. I cannot wait to come back and try other dishes in their menu. I totally recommend it and now I understand why they’re always busy.

My husband and I visited Paris Coffee Shop our first morning in Fort Worth and really enjoyed it!

My husband got the mocha latte and found it less sweet than my caramel latte. He had to add a bit of sugar, so if you're looking for something less sweet, mocha is the way to go! Maybe it was just the one he got though.

The atmosphere was great and our waitress was so sweet, meeting our needs instantly. Even giving us water to go along with our coffee, which was so refreshing!

Our only "complaint" would be that the name is a bit misleading. We thought it would be like a regular coffee shop with a bunch of different flavors and specialty drinks. HOWEVER, I wouldn't have it any other way. It was genuinely a nice change of pace that we might not have tried out if we had known it was more like a cafe. Also, I have wished many times that coffee shops had real food sooo... No actual complaint.

Absolutely loved being able to get out of the sun and chat over delicious lattes!

I only give a 4 star due to the food was a little too salty for me. However, it was perfect for my husband, so it is a 4.5⭐️! The service people were pleasant and attentive. Our glasses never went empty. We both were well filled. The atmosphere was nostalgic and current. Very beautiful mix of history and hope. We sat at the counter which went half way around the place. I gazed around the room to see wait-staff and customers with smiles and giggles.
People enjoying the experience. The restrooms and restaurant areas were clean. It was overall a great decision for today!

YUM! Yes you should go here, you can stop looking for the perfect breakfast/brunch spot now. The chicken fried steak ranks #1 for best I’ve had in my life and I’m a native Texan who grew up on the stuff. The honey butter chicken biscuits are delicious and you can taste the homemade quality in every bite. My only recommendation is to ask for extra honey butter! The espresso martini is okay, I like Press cafes better BUT the Chai espresso martini is delicious! Totally recommend that one! We also had a side of bacon which was just okay. We sat at the bar and had fast and Greta service from Ashley P. 100/10 we would come here again!

Great place for breakfast or brunch in the Magnolia area. The building has been renovated to look more closely like it did when it first opened, which makes it feel like a retro diner. The service was great and we got our food real quick. The chicken and waffles were great! They also have pies and other pastries for dessert.

We came on a Sunday around 12, so it was fairly busy. We ended up having to wait 25 minutes to get in, but once were seated we got served real quick!

This lovely location is conveniently placed right in the corner of magnolia Street. Easy access in and out with great parking. I took the mother for brunch after a medical procedure, and we were welcomed beautifully at the door by the owner and the host. we sat down and had the loveliest breakfast. We had their healthiest pancakes, which turned out to be very delightful. We had oatmeal with lots of yummy sprinkles on top with fruits and different things. Their coffee was on point, and the whole experience was Phenomenal. Please support your local businesses, take care of your waitstaff and enjoy a wonderful place to brunch.
