One of the best boulangeries/cafes in all of Paris. It happens to be gluten-free. Their sandwiches and desserts are to die for, even if like me you can eat gluten. I often come hear with a book and my laptop in the afternoon to get some work done.

Other nearby brasseries have recently become a bit overpriced (ie. L'Estaminet, Cafe Charbon). Chez Justine has stayed true to its humble roots and can be counted on for pretty good brasserie fare.
