Review Summary

Café Rì Yuè comes across as a small, cozy and visually charming cafe near Place des Arts, beloved for inventive drinks and beautiful pastries that range from matcha and hojicha lattes to yuzu and ube cheesecakes, macarons, and other delicate desserts, with many reviews highlighting the quality and presentation. The vibe is intimate and welcoming, with plenty of natural light and cute decor, but seating can be limited and at times the space feels crowded, sometimes requiring customers to share tables. The staff are frequently praised for friendliness and attentiveness, though a few notes mention variable service and occasional delays or mix ups. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high for the portions, though the menu of full cakes is noted as convenient for celebrations. The cafe is repeatedly recommended for a quick coffee break or to meet a friend, and fans celebrate its desserts as not too sweet and beautifully crafted, with standout items like the matcha strawberry cake, yuzu cheesecake, and white chocolate matcha drinks. Overall, Café Rì Yuè appears to deliver a consistently cute and tasty experience for dessert lovers and matcha fans, even as space limitations and occasional service quirks keep it from being ideal for larger groups or longer study sessions.

While visiting from the U.S., I decided to take the 30 minute walk in the rain for dessert, on a whim. This place did not disappoint, & it was well worth it! The earl grey'bear'. Reminded me of fruity pebbles, without the bad stuff.

The Ube Cheesecake was exquisite! NONE of the desserts purchased were too sweet or left us with a heavy bloated feeling. We ate them too fast, before we could take a photo.

La commande était très bonne, ainsi que le service mais j'aimerais faire une petite remarque concernant la propreté, j'étais assise près de la fenêtre en face du comptoir & il y avait une tonne de poussière qui me tombait dessus, puis j'ai remarqué les contours rempli de poussière qui date c'est un peu dommage car j'ai beaucoup aimé ce que j'ai pris, j'espère que mon commentaire sera pris en considération & qu'il y aura plus d'effort coté hygiène.

Very nice cafe, right outside place des art station !

Be cautious on the weekend, the place can get full quickly (fortunately, there are tables outside in spring/summer)
Also, there is a no laptop/studying rule in the weekend, so be mindful 😌

Loved the macaroons they were so so good !
I'm a bit passion fruit lover, so I was truly satisfied with the desserts & the drinks !

Great place for cute & delicious snacks! My partner & I tried the sesame latte, the matcha latte & the tiramisu, & all these food items did not disappoint. The staff was kind upon our arrival & answered all of our questions as a first timer. We would love to come back!

Came here for the first time today & got a sesame latter which was pretty good & different. Really cute cafe with nice staff but only thing to keep in mind is they have a no laptop policy on Saturday & Sundays...
