The 20th, around Belleville and Menilmontant, is known for its culinary diversity: Vietnamese restaurants, Chinese canteens, Southeast Asian caterers. Yet tea houses that take Taiwanese leaf selection seriously are rare. MAISON LE TE, at 136 rue Saint-Maur (on the 11th-20th border), fills that gap.
From Belleville (lines 2 and 11), down rue de Belleville to rue Saint-Maur (10 minutes), turn right. From Couronnes (line 2), 12 minutes. From Pyrenees (line 11), 15 minutes. The walk is pleasant, residential streets with some shops.
MAISON LE TE offers a Taiwan-focused selection: Taiwanese oolong Ali Shan, roasted Dong Ding, Sun Moon Lake black tea. Craft bubble tea with morning-cooked tapioca pearls. Asian pastries with black sesame, taro, matcha. See the full menu.
Belleville-Menilmontant counts several excellent Asian canteens for pho or duck. But on the single-origin tea house front (high-altitude tea, brewed to order, individual teapot), no other address meets the same standard. MAISON LE TE is specifically positioned on this niche: not a canteen, not an industrial bubble tea bar, but a true tea house.
