After a Sacre-Coeur walk, head down to Le Te at Palais-Royal for a real Taiwanese tea time, far from the place du Tertre tourist crowd.
Abbesses → Concorde (15 min), then 5 min walk via the Tuileries.
Le Te is the opposite of place du Tertre: calm, quiet, no crowd.
Ali Shan, Dong Ding, Sun Moon. Direct import.
Montmartre (18th) is one of Paris's most visited neighborhoods. Tea rooms are numerous, often saturated with tourists, with fast service and high noise. For a visitor or 18th resident seeking a real calm moment, Le Te at Palais-Royal is worth the detour: 15 metro minutes, opposite vibe.
Line 12 from Abbesses or Lamarck-Caulaincourt, toward Mairie d'Issy, get off at Concorde (15 minutes). Then 5 minutes on foot via the Tuileries to Palais-Royal. Or get off at Madeleine (12 min) then 8 minutes on foot. From Sacre-Coeur, allow 20 minutes total.
Le Te offers a Taiwan-focused selection. High-mountain Taiwanese oolong Ali Shan, roasted Dong Ding, Sun Moon Lake black tea. Bamboo-whisked Taiwanese matcha. Asian pastries. See the menu.
After the Sacre-Coeur walk or crossing place du Tertre, you arrive at Le Te with tired legs and a desire to settle. The room, under Palais-Royal arcades, is the opposite of touristy bustle: silence, soft light, a teapot that lasts. For couples wanting to extend a Montmartre day with an intimate moment, an ideal option.
Pigalle tea house, Buttes-Chaumont tea house, cocoon tea house.
Open daily 11am-8pm. Booking recommended on weekends via the contact page.
