Author: Kylie Lang
January 23, 2026January 23, 2026

As Season 5 of Emily in Paris dropped in December last year, and with the recent announcement of filming for Season 6 starting soon, it was a good excuse to rewatch some of the series. And on my last trip to Paris a few weeks ago, I couldn’t resist seeking out some of the famous spots featured on the show.

Before you start screaming at the screen about how ridiculous the show is, I already know that. I love it because it gives me the excuse to look past the characters and drink in Paris, again.

Is Paris really how Emily and co depict it? Absolutely not? Is it realistic? No, it isn’t. But something about the show draws you in. And I think it’s definitely because it gives you a Paris fix when you can’t get the real thing.

If you forget about the fact that it’s completely far-fetched and just enjoy the fabulous views of Paris, you’ll probably enjoy it as much as I did. So let’s dive in and discover some of the best Emily in Paris tourist spots.

Your Guide To the ‘Must-See’ Emily in Paris Locations

Get ready to plan your trip a la Emily. I’ve also added the address for each location and the nearest metro station.

No. 1 Emily’s Apartment

Secluded courtyard with a fountain, framed by early-spring trees and vibrant flower beds.

If I ever lived in Paris, this is exactly the type of square I’d want to live in. Even though Emily’s apartment looks small in the program, it’s big by Paris standards. Plus, it’s in the Latin Quarter, my favorite part of Paris.

The square looks pretty much the same in real life as it does in the show, apart from the fact that you won’t bump into any of your favorite characters.

It’s hard to imagine, but the square wasn’t always the scene of peace and tranquility it is now. On the Day of the Dupes in 1630, there was a power struggle involving Cardinal Richelieu and his adversaries, which culminated in the arrest and public whipping of those involved, including the nobleman François de Montmorency-Bouteville, whose punishment was carried out at what is now Place de l’Estrapade​. 

📍 1 Place de l’Estrapade, 75005 Paris | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Cardinal Lemoine (Line 10)​

No. 2 Les Deux Compères (Gabriel’s Restaurant, Terra Nera)

A red facade Italian restaurant with outdoor seating on a Paris street.

Gabriel’s restaurant appears in many of the scenes and is on the same square as Emily’s apartment.

When it’s not playing the part of French restaurant Terra Nera, it’s known as Le Deux Compères and serves a mainly Italian-style menu. I haven’t eaten there, but friends have, and they said it wasn’t bad at all.

📍 18 Rue des Fossés Saint-Jacques, 75005 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Cardinal Lemoine (Line 10)​

No. 3 Boulangerie Moderne

Cozy Parisian boulangerie-patisserie with sidewalk seating.

Boulangeries in France are a way of life, and I know I spend far too much time each day buying croissants and baguettes. But when in France, you eat like a French person.

At Boulangerie Moderne, Emily tastes her first pain au chocolat and takes a picture with the owner for her burgeoning Instagram account.

📍 16 Rue des Fossés Saint-Jacques, 75005 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Cardinal Lemoine (Line 10)​

No. 4 Savoir Agency

Cobblestone square with an art gallery and a sculpture in Paris.

Although Savoir is a fictional marketing agency, the office exterior isn’t a set; it’s a real building that’s home to the firm Galerie Patrick Fourtin. 

The building supposedly housing Savoir was built in 1780, and the square is within spitting distance of Palais-Royal and walking distance from the Louvre, in the 1st arrondissement. 

It’s a lovely, quiet square that’s a bit of a hidden gem, or at least it was till Emily and crew came to town.

📍 6 Place de Valois, 75001 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre (Lines 1 and 7)​

No. 5 Jardin du Palais-Royal

Empty park bench nestled between trees with dappled sunlight.

Just off Place de Valois is Jardin du Palais-Royal, where Emily takes her first lunch break and meets her new bestie, Mindy.

The two girls take a selfie in front of Les Deux Plateaux, which, of course, goes straight onto Emily’s Instagram.

📍 6 Rue de Montpensier, 75001 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre, which serves lines 1 and 7

No. 6 Panthéon

Morning light on Pantheon's neoclassical facade with clear skies.

The Panthéon is in the Latin Quarter and is recognizable almost immediately. It’s here that Emily dumps her boyfriend back in Chicago in the second episode of Series 1.

Unfortunately, we don’t get to see the inside, but it’s worth taking a look if you get the chance. In fact, I’d highly recommend doing a tour of the whole Latin Quarter as there are so many hidden gems.

📍 Place du Panthéon, 75005 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Panthéon is Cardinal Lemoine on Line 10

No. 7 Pont Alexander III

Ornate lampposts line a bridge with golden details and sculptures in Paris.

The Pont Alexandre III, one of Paris’s most ornate bridges, was inaugurated in 1900 to symbolise Franco-Russian friendship, established by the Franco-Russian Alliance in 1891. 

Its construction was part of the 1900 Exposition Universelle, and its architecture is very representative of one of my favorite eras in Paris, the Belle Époque. Spanning the Seine and connecting the Invalides area to the Champs-Élysées, you can’t help but admire the grandiose sculptures, lanterns, and nymphs.

In Emily in Paris, the Pont Alexandre III serves as a stunning location for a photoshoot that Emily organizes for the perfume campaign “De L’Heure” for Maison Lavaux. Emily is shocked by the use of a naked female model and how the American market will perceive it. 

She makes her feelings perfectly clear, which doesn’t endear her to Sylvie, who already thinks she’s a waste of space.

Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Invalides, served by lines 8 and 13, and the RER C line.

No. 8 Palais Garnier

A visitor is pictured smiling on the grand staircase of the Palais Garnier, with a sculptural bronze lamp post and ornate balustrades in the background, capturing the elegance of this historic opera house.

The opera house is one of my favorite buildings in Paris, probably because it was the setting for the Phantom of the Opera. It’s a visually stunning place, and photos don’t do it justice. 

It was inaugurated in 1875, commissioned by Napoleon III and designed by Charles Garnier, and is beyond opulent. 

I did a tour to find out all the stories and legends associated with it, and it was fantastic.

It was lovely to see it featured in the Ringarde episode, where Emily is supposed to see a performance of Swan Lake with Thomas. However, she realizes what a total snob he is and leaves him on the steps. 

We do, however, get to see inside one of the boxes when she tries to get Pierre Cadault back on side. We also see it in Season 3, when Sylvie attends a benefit event with her husband for her anniversary.

📍8 Rue Scribe, 75009   | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Opéra, which serves lines 3, 7, and 8

No. 9 Place Dalida

Cobblestone street winding towards distant domed structures, shaded by green trees.

After Sylvie tells Emily to take down her Instagram account, she goes for a drunken night out with Mindy to enjoy one last night of posting.

Mindy takes her to Place Dalida, and they take an impromptu picture that catches the eye of one of her clients, who asks to use the location for their ‘Sleep under the Stars’ campaign.

So Emily is told to reinstate her account and help the client create their campaign, complete with the bed at Place Dalida.

The square is in Montmatre and is named after the famous music icon Dalida, with a bronze bust sitting on a granite plinth in her honor.

📍 The Place Dalida is located in Montmartre, at the intersection of Rue de l’Abreuvoir and Rue Girardon, 75018 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Lamarck – Caulaincourt on Line 12

No. 10 Sacré-Coeur

Two smiling women in front of a carousel with the Sacré-Cœur in the distance.

The Sacré-Cœur has appeared in so many movies and shows, so it’s no surprise it made it into Emily in Paris.

It appeared in Season 1 and Season 3. The latter was when she was helping Gabriel figure out the best place to propose to Camille. Not at all awkward!

It always surprises me that it wasn’t completed till 1914, as it feels like it should be older than that. It was actually built following the Franco-Prussian War as a symbol of hope and penance, and construction started in 1875.

📍35 Rue du Chevalier de la Barre, 75018  | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Anvers on Line 2

No. 11 La Château de Sonnay

We all love a trip to a wine chateau, and in episode 5 of Season 1, Camille takes Emily to her parents’ chateau to talk about marketing their champagne. Emily is taken on a tour of the champagne cellars and enjoys getting to know Camille’s younger brother.

In the show, the chateau is in the Champagne region of France, which isn’t a huge trip from Paris.

In reality, La Château de Sonnay is in the Loire Valley and is a private residence and working vineyard.

No. 12 Père Lachaise Cemetery

Shadow-dappled path with a bust statue beside a tomb under a clear sky.

One of the men Emily works with, Luc, takes Emily for lunch at the Père Lachaise Cemetery. A bit of a strange choice for a picnic, but Luc is quite a strange character.

I’ve been to Père Lachais,e and it’s huge. I’ve never seen so many graves and artistic-style tombs in one place before.

It was built in 1804 to help with the overcrowding in the graveyards in the centre of Paris, but it took quite a while to become popular. Now, it’s the final resting place of some pretty famous people, including Edith Piaf, Chopin, Oscar Wilde, and Jim Morrison.

📍16 Rue du Repos, 75020 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Philippe Auguste on Line 2 and Père Lachaise on Lines 2 and 3

No. 13 L’Atelier des Lumières

Art projection of Klimt's "The Kiss" over a water reflection in an immersive gallery.

L’Atelier des Lumières is located in a former foundry and is a digital art centre that transforms art into immersive visual and auditory experiences. It showcases works of renowned artists by projecting their artworks onto large walls, accompanied by music. 

I’ve been to something similar in Bordeaux, Les Bassins des Lumières, and it’s such an immersive experience. You feel as though you are literally stepping into the art.

In episode 5, Emily, Gabriel, and Camille all visit L’Atelier des Lumières.

📍 38 Rue Saint-Maur, 75011 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Voltaire on Line 9

No. 14 Musée des Arts Forains

Antique carousel inside a dimly lit museum with intricate designs and vintage charm.

I absolutely love this museum in the Bercy district of Paris. It’s a private museum of fairground art created by Jean Paul Favand from his private collection. It opened in 1996, showcasing vintage carousels and fairground artefacts.

It also featured in a party scene in the movie Midnight in Paris, my favourite movie set in Paris.

In the show, it was the scene of another party, one for Fourtier, where Emily is in charge of American actress Brooklyn Clark, who disappears wearing one of the host’s priceless watches.

📍 53 Avenue des Terroirs de France, 75012 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Cour Saint-Émilion on Line 14

No. 15 Palace of Versailles

A is standing in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles, known for its grandeur and opulence, with rows of crystal chandeliers and gilded statues. She is wearing a black coat and is carrying a maroon-colored bag.

I am so jealous that the cast got to film at Versailles. What a privilege and amazing experience that must have been. Apparently, more than 200 films and shows have been shot there since 1904.

In a way only Emily can, Savoir created their own French Revolution in the form of a fashion show in the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles.

The show was for Grégory Duprée, the long-time rival of Pierre Cadault, another one of Emily’s big clients who had decided to throw a hissy fit, as only a fashion designer can do.

It was the perfect place to put on a runway show, given the famous Marie-Antoinette and the fashion statements she made in her time.

📍 Place d’Armes, 78000 Versailles | 🚇 Nearest station: Versailles Château Rive Gauche, which is part of the RER C line

No. 16 The ‘I Love You’ Wall

A wall filled with 'I love you' written in various languages and scripts.

This one is on many people’s Paris bucket list, and I have to say it was on mine, too. You’ll find it in the Montmartre district, and it features the phrase “I love you” written over 300 times in more than 250 languages. 

Created by artists Frédéric Baron and Claire Kito, this wall is a tribute to love and unity, covering 40 square metres in the Jehan Rictus garden square. 

Emily takes Gabriel here when he is looking for places to propose to Camille. This is the one he finally decides on, although fate has other plans.

📍 Square Jehan Rictus, Place des Abbesses, 75018 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Abbesses on Line 12

No. 17 Parc des Buttes Chaumont

Classical temple atop a rocky outcrop enveloped in red ivy.

Is there anything more romantic than a French picnic? Emily doesn’t think so, and neither does Alfie. At the start of Season 3, the two spend a brief afternoon at Parc des Buttes Chaumont as Emily is in between careers.

It’s one of the city’s largest and most picturesque parks. Opened in 1867, it features rugged cliffs, a serene lake, waterfalls, and winding paths, and is just one of many lovely places to picnic in Paris.

📍 1 Rue Botzaris, 75019 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Buttes Chaumont on Line 7bis

No 18. Musée d’Orsay

A museum in Paris with a big gold gilded clock and statues

The Musée d’Orsay is the home of an impressive collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces and is in a former railway station. You’ll find works by artists such as Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, and many others, showcasing the development of modern art from 1848 to 1914.

In Season 3, episode 9, Gabriel and Camille spend some time together when something very important happens, a pivotal point in their relationship.

📍 1 rue de la Légion d’Honneur, 75007 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Solférino metro station on Line 12

No. 19 Four Seasons Hotel George V

Parisian terrace with a table, topiaries, and Eiffel Tower in the backdrop.

If you’re looking for somewhere luxurious to stay, you can’t go far wrong than the Four Seasons Hotel George V, where Emily’s boss, Madeline, stayed in when she came to Paris in Season 3.

Just a few steps from the Champs-Elysées it is five-star all the way.

📍 31 Avenue George V, 75008 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: George V on Line 1

No. 20 Piscine Molitor – Molitor Hotel & Spa Paris

Vibrant yellow hotel with white balconies overlooking a calm blue pool.

Who wouldn’t want to sit around this pool? Our two favorite gals, Emily and Mindy, certainly enjoyed it as they sunned themselves for the launch of a fictitious sun care product in Season 3, episode 5.

Piscine Molitor is part of the five-star Molitor Hôtel & Spa Paris and is known for its Art Deco design. It opened in 1929 as a fashionable Parisian swimming pool and social spot, closing in 1989, and it fell into disrepair. Luckil,y it was revived and reopened in 2014 as a luxury hotel and pool, maintaining its historical charm

📍 13 Rue Nungesser et Coli, 75016 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Porte d’Auteuil on Line 10

No. 21 Fontaine Saint-Michel

Ornate fountain with statues and pink marble columns under a clear sky.

In Season 2, Mindy’s singing career kicks off with a bit of busking in episode 4 in front of the Fontaine Sian-Michel.

It was designed by Gabriel Davioud in 1860 during Haussmann’s renovation of Paris and features a statue of Saint Michael battling the devil, reflecting themes of good conquering evil. The fountain marks the beginning of the Boulevard Saint-Michel. 

📍 Place Saint-Michel 75006 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Saint-Michel on Line 4

10 Of The Best Emily In Paris Restaurants

No. 1 Le Flore en L’ile

In the first season, a lonely Emily visits Le Flore en L’ile, just across from Notre Dame, where Luc joins her.

📍 42 Quai d’Orléans, 75004 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Pont Marie (Line 7) or Saint-Paul (Line 1)

Black and white striped awning of Bistro Valois in Paris with lush greenery.

No. 2 Le Bistrot Valois

Just around the corner from the Savoir office, Le Bistro Valois is where her colleagues are having lunch without her when she realizes Brigitte Macron has retweeted her.

📍 1b Place de Valois, 75001 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre, which serves Lines 1 and 7.

No. 3 Le Grand Véfour

This two Michelin-star restaurant is where Emily makes the faux pas of getting the dates wrong. She forgets that in France, the day comes before the month when making reservations. So we only briefly see the inside of Le Grand 

📍 17 rue de Beaujolais, 75001 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre (Lines 1 and 7) and Pyramides (Line 14)

No. 4 La Maison Rose

Quaint corner building covered in greenery with the sign "La Maison Rose" in Montmartre.

In Season 1, episode 5, Mindy and Emily enjoy a drink and a meal at La Maison Rose, a beautiful restaurant in Montmatre.

📍 2 Rue de l’Abreuvoir, 75018 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Lamarck – Caulaincourt on Line 12

No. 5 Café de Flore

Emily has a meal here with Thomas in the Ringarde episode in Season 1. He tells her that all the literary greats hung out here, but it was Les Deux Magots across the road where Hemingway hung out.

📍 172 Boulevard Saint-Germain, 75006 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Saint-Germain-des-Prés on Line 4

No. 6 Le Café de l’Homme

Rooftop dining with Eiffel Tower view, elegant table setting, and boxwood hedges.

Offering one of the most stunning views of the Eiffel Tower from the Trocadéro, Le Café de l’Homme hosts the event for Maison Lavaux’s new fragrance De l’heure in Season 1, episode 2.

📍 17 Place du Trocadéro, 75016 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Trocadéro, which is served by Lines 6 and 9. Exit 6: Avenue Paul Doumer

No. 7 The Bombardier

This British pub in the heart of the Latin Quarter behind the Panthéon is where Emily and Alfie go for a beer before their French class in episode 7, Season 2.

📍2 Pl. du Panthéon, 75005 

No. 8 Jules Vernes Restaurant

Breathtaking panoramic view from Le Jules Verne restaurant within the Eiffel Tower, featuring a sophisticated dining area with chic furniture and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Paris's expansive cityscape.

In the first episode of Season 3, Emily is seen looking out from the top of the Eiffel Tower in a dream sequence, which is then repeated in real life. She eats a meal in the Jules Verne restaurant with Sylvie and the team.

📍 Eiffel Tower, Avenue Gustave Eiffel, 75007 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Bir-Hakeim (Line 6), Trocadéro (Lines 6 and 9), and the RER C station Champ de Mars – Tour Eiffel

No. 9 The Tortuga

When Camille finally decides to talk to Emily after the birthday scene, where she realizes her boyfriend and friend have slept together, they meet at Tortuga on the rooftop of Galeries Lafayette.

📍 25 Rue De La Chaussee D Antin, 75009 | Ⓜ️ Nearest metro: Métro-Chaussée d’Antin-la Fayette
