Emily in Paris Filming Locations

Place de l'Estrapade

It all starts here, the place where Emily lives in Paris: at the Latin Quarter, in the 5th arrondissement of Paris. The wooden doors of the building right on Place de l'Estrapade are already iconic.

Nearby is the Panthéon, the Sorbonne University, and the Luxembourg Gardens, where Emily often goes for a run.

Boulangerie Moderne

At the end of Place de l'Estrapade is the Boulangerie Moderne, la panadería a la que Emily suele ir a comprar Pan au Chocolat. There you can find a wide selection of typical French sweets and breads, as well as admire the décor, which looks exactly as it does in the series.

Terra Nera, Gabriel's restaurant in Emily in Paris

On the same street, you will find el restaurante de Gabriel — Emily's handsome neighbor — and you'll notice it's not called Les Deux Compères but Terra Nera, and that it serves Italian food.

The series has been such a success que el restaurante elaboró un menú especial llamado Emily in París and it has a price of €39 per person.

Café de la Nouvelle Mairie

Right across from the Boulangerie Moderne and Les Deux Compères is the café where Emily often goes for coffee with her friends. The place has been there for over 30 years and truly tiene la distinción de ser el primer bar de vinos naturales de París.

Place de Valois

This is where Savoir, the marketing firm where Emily works in Paris, is located — right across from Bistrot Valois, the place she usually goes to for lunch with her colleagues.

This is an elegant square, fairly quiet and somewhat tucked away que ahora atrae visitantes gracias al auge de la serie. 

Gardens of the Palais Royal

Emily often walks through the gardens of the Palais Royal on her way to the office. It is very close to the Louvre Museum and it is in the Garden of Beautiful Letters area — where poems are inscribed on the benches — that Emily meets her friend Mindy, in the shade of the lush trees there.

Le Grand Véfour

This restaurant, ubicado en las galerías de los Jardines del Palacio Real, was opened in 1784 and today holds 2 Michelin stars, led by chef Guy Martin.

It appears in Emily in Paris when the protagonist books a table for a very important business dinner and gets the date wrong.

La Maison Rose, a café from Emily in Paris

This little pink house is one of the most iconic spots in Montmartre. It is home to the restaurant «La Maison Rose», which opened in 1910 and counted among its regular clientele both Picasso and Edith Piaf herself.

Here, Emily often comes to have dinner with her friend Mindy, who dice que el lugar queda en la calle más bonita de París, (something we completely agree with).

Dirección: 2 Rue de l'Abreuvoir, Montmartre

Place Dalida

Place Dalida sits on a corner of the famous Rue de l'Abreuvoir, offering a stunning view of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica.

This is the spot where Emily arranged to have a bed set up for a marketing campaign for a mattress company, with the aim of inviting people to sleep under the stars. 

Musée des Arts Forains

It may well be uno de los lugares menos conocidos de la ruta Emily en París as it is a private, interactive museum housing vintage fairground attractions.

This is a popular venue for grand, elegant parties, like the one Emily attended in one of the seasons of the series. It is one of the most unusual museums in Paris. 

Dirección: 53 Av. des Terroirs de France

Café de Flore

Café de Flore is one of the most iconic spots in Paris and naturally had to appear in Emily in Paris. The exact date it opened is unknown, but it dates back to somewhere between 1884 and 1887.

In the 1930s it was the favorite haunt of literary Paris and tenía clientes fijos como Jean Paul Sartre y Simone de Beauvoir. It is a place full of charm and one of the best cafés in Paris.

Palais Garnier

The Palais Garnier — also known as the Paris Opera — was built in 1875 on the orders of Napoleon III, who entrusted the project to architect Charles Garnier.

This is where Emily goes to see the opera "Swan Lake" after meeting Thomas at Café de Flore. Una escena que rinde homenaje a la actriz Audrey Hepburn.

Café de l'Homme

In Season 1, Emily attends an elegant party at the Palais de Chaillot, at the Place du Trocadéro. There you'll find the Maritime Museum, the Architecture Museum, the Musée de l'Homme, and the café where Emily attends the event.

From the terrace you can enjoy one of the best views of the Eiffel Tower. 

Dirección: 17 Place du Trocadéro et du 11 Novembre

Pont Alexandre III

Of the many bridges that cross the Seine River, the Alexandre III is one of the most famous. It was the location Emily chose for the filming of a perfume commercial.

It is one of the most famous and photographed settings in Emily in Paris, so if you want to avoid the crowds, it's best to go very early in the morning or late at night.

Pont Alexandre III connects the Esplanade of Les Invalides in Paris with the Grand Palais.

Pont des Arts

One of the most romantic views of Paris can be enjoyed from the Pont des Arts, where lovers used to attach padlocks as a token of their love. We ask that you refrain from leaving your padlock, as this practice is no longer permitted.

This bridge connects the Louvre Museum with the Institut de France and is where Emily tells her boyfriend over the phone that Paris feels like a dream.

Château de Sonnay

The Château de Sonnay is one of the Emily in Paris locations situated outside the city. You'll find it in the Loire Valley, three hours from the French capital.

It appears in the series as the Château de Lalisse, donde Emily llega de visita con Gabriel y Camille.

The Loire Valley is one of the day trips from Paris you can take in a day with a Spanish-speaking guide.

La Monnaie de Paris

This is one of the oldest filming locations used in Emily in Paris. It is la Casa de la Moneda de París, founded in 864 and the oldest institution still in operation in all of France.

It appears in the moment Emily stages a fashion show in its outdoor spaces, stunning everyone with the spectacle of the scene.

Le Flore en l'Île

Finally, we arrive at the place Emily loves to visit after work for a glass of wine. It is one of the best-known restaurants and brasseries in Paris, located very close to the Cathedral of Notre-Dame and conserva ese aire típico parisino que lo hace muy instagrameable.

Dirección: 42 Quai d'Orléans
