About

Le Loir dans la Théière is an emblematic tea house in the Marais, open since 1996 on rue des Rosiers. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, this quirky venue blends vintage flea market finds with bohemian charm through its eclectic furnishings and vintage posters. The establishment is renowned for its homemade pastries made with fresh seasonal ingredients, particularly its legendary lemon meringue tart. Other specialties include chocolate mascarpone tarts, pistachio succès, carrot cakes, and tarte tatin. Weekday lunch features seasonal dishes and quiches, while weekends offer homemade brunch. The warm atmosphere and literary ambiance have made it a beloved Parisian institution, though peak hours can be crowded given the intimate space and high demand.

Press review

What the sources say.

Excerpts from 5 editorial mentions cross-referenced by Gatto.

  • “Le Loir is named after the unfortunate dormouse who gets dunked in the pot at the Mad Hatter's tea party in Alice In Wonderland. Its squishy sofas are the perfect complement to its comfort food: it specialises in baked goods, and the famed lemon meringue and chocolate fondant are divine.”
