A Taste of Paris, in the Heart of San Diego
Café Madeleine is a French restaurant and café with three locations across San Diego, CA, each one inspired by the charm and rhythm of sidewalk cafés in France. From crimson umbrellas and outdoor bistro chairs to the hand-painted mural by French artist Alexandra Pastorino (in our Juniper Street location), every detail reflects the soul of Paris.
The ambiance, infused with Art Nouveau touches and decorative elegance, invites guests to slow down and savor the moment just like in a neighborhood café in Montmartre.
At Café Madeleine, we specialize in crafting the best sweet and savory crêpes and paninis in San Diego. Each dish is made to order, right in front of you, using only the freshest premium ingredients. Our menu is a love letter to classic French flavors, with occasional twists that reflect our creativity and passion.
Our goal is simple: to bring the authentic spirit of a Parisian café to our local community, offering consistently high-quality food, thoughtful hospitality, and an inviting atmosphere where everyone feels welcome.
Come sip, savor, and stay awhile, bienvenue à Madeleine.
