TravelByArtJuly 31, 2014This is the place where Pablo Picasso met Dora Maar playing a knife game, who later became his lover. Find out more in iPhone app TravelbyArt. Read more
Kathryn DOctober 5, 2017Excellent people watching and retains sophistication despite touristic appeal.
Unfortunately, no absinthe, so you can't actually BE Hemingway or Fitzgerald. (Although you can order a drink called the Hemingway.)
A piece of cool Paris History! At least have a cappuccino !at Les Deux Magots
Helene ScarfFebruary 2, 2013For philosophy lovers. This is where Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre use to have debates.. Its a must.
Christelle ANJanuary 2, 2017This place is known to be fancy...honestly, there's nothing special about the food, it's less than average! Good place to have a glass of wine or some hot drinks but not more than that in my opinion.
Jackson TsaiSeptember 6, 2014I may or just might be sitting in the same table as Ernest Hemingway & Pablo Picasso
Chris R (thechristophe)September 23, 2021They do not have the staff to justify the volumes they try and serve. However, the cheese omelette is the best thing ever.
- IgjkgfvhSeptember 9, 2015Everything is overpriced, but breakfast offer is reasonable. I know it's not what it used to be but I enjoyed the atmosphere nevertheless
- TravelByArtJuly 31, 2014Ernest Hemingway spent many hours at the Deux Magots, writing or engaging in lively disputes with Simone de Beauvoir. Read more
NathanMay 26, 2015Let's be real, the only reason you're here is because you're a Hemingway/Sartre/Picasso fan (or wannabe).
GregWasThereAugust 14, 2017Over priced but during a glass or two you'll be seating where some great minds where getting drinks a few decades ago...
SparkieJanuary 9, 2014A historic classic now touristy and way overpriced but a nice location and good hot chocolate.
Derek ErbJune 20, 201416.50 € for a glass of De La Motte Champagne that was opened so long ago there were a half a dozen bubbles left; served with cheap peanuts by an arrogant server.
TausSeptember 11, 2018Very touristy but should be expected because of the history of this place. Food and drinks were reasonable.
Jan-Willem CallebautJanuary 8, 2017Typical Parisian café. It's OK. Dont expect too much though. Busy waiters and acceptable dishes / breakfast.
- Nick LeeNovember 4, 2013Adding to the list, apparently Jean-paul Sartree and Simone de Beauvoir use to have their latte here.
