Emily in Paris Film Locations (Seasons 1 to 5)

Love or hate the Emily in Paris series, there is little argument that it offers an escape for many Francophiles and romantics as well! It didn’t take long for Emily in Paris to become one of the most-watched series of 2020, and it took even less time for it to start being compared to the legendary series Sex and the City. In fact, the comparisons started before it even aired, since Darren Star (the creator of SATC) created the show.

Quick note if you are here for the newer seasons: this guide began with Seasons 1, 2, and 3, and I have now added the real Paris locations from Season 4 and Season 5 below. Season 4 splits its time between Paris and Rome; Season 5 spends most of its story in Rome, and the confirmed final Season 6, filming in Paris, Greece, and Monaco, will be released December 24, 2026. I will keep this post updated as new Paris spots are revealed, so bookmark it and check back.

The show follows twenty-something Emily Cooper (played by Lily Collins) as she explores Paris after landing the job of a lifetime and moving from Chicago. Alone, in a strange land, and quite the fashionista, like Carrie Bradshaw in SATC, it’s not hard to fall in love (or at least “like”) with the character in the storylines all the same.

No, there’s no Samantha, no Miranda, and no Charlotte to back Emily up – though Mindy is great and Camille plays her part – the show definitely has a very [young] Sex in the City vibe to it. And with season 3, even the “older” characters are dressed to the nines. Through the first season, Emily definitely finds her style, and it’s not hard to imagine [a young] Carrie wearing some of the same looks herself.

Of course, Paris played a big part in Carrie’s life – at least her love life. And it’s not a stretch to assume this city will have a bigger impact on Emily. Carrie may have loved Paris, but she WAS New York City through and through.

We saw that while Emily is from Chicago, she’s shed that cocoon and embraced all that Paris has to offer.

The Main Sites We See Throughout Seasons 1-5

Emily's Apartment: 1 Place de l'Estrapade

Situated smack in the center of the Latin Quarter, right in the heart of Paris itself, this is the address for Emily’s apartment that sits on the fifth floor. Despite the fact that her apartment looks to be about 2-3x times the size of what an actual apartment on the top floor would look like, we do get a great look at the architecture and design of a typically Parisian building in almost every single episode – but we also get peeks of the Pantheon, the Sorbonne, and Le Jardin du Luxembourg, not necessarily realistic, but nice to see.

Just know that this building that houses Emily’s apartment is an existing actual apartment building, so visits to Paris to see this filming location are unlikely to include a sneak peek behind these doors.

Interior shots of Emily’s place are done on a soundstage, anyway – but that doesn’t mean that you can’t snap photos of the iconic building and imagine spending time on the fifth floor yourself!

Location: 1 Place de l'Estrapade, 5th arrondissement.

Savoir Office/Agence Grateau Office: Place de Valois

Emily decides to leave Chicago in the first place for a chance to work at the world-renowned Savoir organization, a legendary French luxury marketing operation (in the television program, anyway). Another beautiful example of Parisian architecture, the offices that Emily visits every day for work – and inevitably runs afoul of Sylvie over and over again – is a must-visit destination for any fan visiting the city.

Emily in Paris- Savoir Office_Paris-Film Location

The Galerie Patrick Fourtin is a real antique shop where visitors can browse and pick up a memento of their visit to this iconic filming location. Visitors can also walk just two blocks to the Louvre, a destination that belongs on every Paris itinerary, whether you are visiting as a fan of Emily in Paris or not!

Location: Between Rue de Valois and Rue des Bon Enfants (along Passage Vérité) in the 1st arrondissement.

Where Emily and Mindy Hang Out: Jardin du Palais Royal

Emily starts to build a tight-knit crew (the way that Carrie did in Sex and the City) – she makes a brand-new best friend that she meets on the grounds of this 17th-century palace turned cultural center and café hotspot. This is the location where Emily meets Mindy while they are both on their lunch break, both of them (relatively) new to Paris, and both of them from different corners of the globe.

Bench in Palais Royale where Emily and Mindy Meet Paris-Film Location-Emily in Paris

And it is where we continue to see the two of them meet for chats and advice.

Plenty of cafés are located in this part of Paris (essentially the center of the city), so you shouldn’t have any trouble finding a place to grab some coffee and a bit to eat. This includes the Grand Vefour, where Emily tried to make last-minute dinner reservations (I personally love this spot for lunch).

You’ll also have no trouble finding the Louvre from this filming location, either – it’s located nearby! If your visit to Paris doesn’t have a tremendous amount of time carved out to visit filming locations, do try to combine this one, the Savoir offices, and Emily’s apartment all in one block of time. These three are located so close to one another that you can save time without missing anything important!

Location: 43 Rue de Valois in the 1st arrondissement.

Gabriel's Restaurant: Deux Compères/Chez Lavaux/L'Esprit de Gigi

The restaurant where Emily first has dinner with Mindy and subsequently meets Gabriel at work is called Deux Compères, but in reality, it is a restaurant called Terra Nera. It then changes to Chez Lavaux once Antoine invests in it and the “gang” is there practically every night (or so it seems!). And then it evolves into L'Esprit de Gigi when Gabrielle becomes a partner and changes the name in hopes of garnering a Michelin star with his Grandmother's traditional Norman recipes.

Location: 18 Rue des Fossés Saint-Jacques in the 5th arrondissement 

Now onto the individual episodes in Season 1!

  • The scene where Emily meets up with Sylvie on the street near the office takes place on Rue de Valois.

  • Luc, Julien, and Emily have lunch once again at Bistrot Valois after Sylvie and Antoine have a fight.

Arrondissements Featured in this Episode: 1st | 3rd | 5th

  • The opening scene shows Mindy and Emily at that neighborhood hangout, Café de la Nouvelle Marie.
    • Address: 19 Rue des Fossés Saint-Jacques in the 5th arrondissement.
  • Emily goes to an influencer event for La Durée at the Hôtel d’Évreux directly on Place Vendôme. I have walked by this hotel countless times and have always wanted to peek inside.
    • Address: 19 Pl. Vendôme in the 1st arrondissement.
  • Emily is the 3rd wheel on a date with Camille and Gabriel that starts in Le Passage du Grand-Cerf.
    • Address: 145, rue Saint-Denis – 10 rue Dussoubs in the 2nd arrondissement (where there are a ton of these passages).
  • The date continues with the 3 musketeers playing around and taking photos on Rue de Montregueil. This is one of my favorite food-shopping streets, spanning both the 1st and 2nd arrondissement. The area Emily, Camille, and Gabriel walk through is in the 2nd arrondissement, with La Grille Montorgueil in the background. They pick up a flower at Floriste Anaïs.
  • Address: 50 and 52 Rue Montorgueil in the 2nd arrondissement.
  • They end their date at L'Atelier des Lumières. The exhibition they visit is for Van Gogh, which has moved on from Paris and is now in Charlotte, North Carolina. There are 2 new artists at the moment: Dali and Gaudí.
    • Address: 38 Rue Saint-Maur in the 11th arrondissement.
  • Emily meets the CMO of La Durée at the Hôtel Particulier Montmartre. The hotel is one of a small chain, and the name is a little confusing, as a hôtel particulier is also the name of a type of building that refers to a very fancy townhome, townhouse, or small mansion.
    • Address: 23 Av. Junot Pavillon D in the 18th arrondissement.
  • Later that day, Emily has dinner with Mindy at La Maison Rose, the insta-famous pink building in Montmartre!
    • Address: 2 Rue de l'Abreuvoir
  • After dinner, Emily and Mindy have fun at other famous landmarks: the Les Colonnes de Buren in Palais Royale, in front of Moulin Rouge, and at the Eiffel Tower Carousel (more on carousels in Paris here), before ending up back near where they ate dinner on the prettiest street in Paris: Rue de l’Abreuvoir. To be clear, none of these spots are near each other, and they would actually be zig-zagging all over the city in a really weird way!
  • And it is on the last street, Rue de l’Abreuvoir, at the Place Dalida where Emily ends up doing her Hästens bed installation.

    • Address: 67 Rue de Lancry in the 10th arrondissement.
  • The next day we see Emily sipping her Starbucks on the street near Place Saint Georges in the 9th arrondissement. She sees an advertisement for Swan Lake. That makes sense as the show is at the Palais Garnier opera house also in the 9th.
  • That evening Emily goes to the show at the Opéra Garnier to catch Pierra Cadault.
    • Address: Pl. de l'Opéra, 9th arrondissement.

Season 4 in Paris

Musée Baccarat (Galerie-Musée Baccarat)

Address: 11 Place des États-Unis, 16th arrondissement

This crystal palace of a museum hosts the dramatic Heartbreak perfume launch and costume gala, and honestly it could not be a more fitting setting. The former mansion is dripping in chandeliers and red velvet, exactly the kind of over-the-top glamour the show loves. You can visit the museum and its restaurant, the Cristal Room, if you want to feel like you have wandered onto set.

L'Ambroisie

Address: 9 Place des Vosges, 4th arrondissement

Sylvie and Luc have their tense work dinner here, and if you know Paris dining, you will recognize the address instantly. L'Ambroisie holds three Michelin stars and sits under the arcades of the gorgeous Place des Vosges in the Marais. It is one of the city's great special-occasion restaurants, so book well ahead if you want to dine where Sylvie does.

Bouillon Chartier Grands Boulevards

Address: 7 Rue du Faubourg Montmartre, 9th arrondissement

When Gabriel takes Emily to meet his chef friends after hours, they land at this classic bouillon. I love that the show finally sent Emily somewhere real Parisians actually eat. Chartier has been serving simple French classics at very kind prices since 1896, under a beautiful Belle Époque ceiling, and you rarely need a reservation.

Le Bouillon Chartier Grands Boulevards - Paris

La Samaritaine

Address: 9 Rue de la Monnaie, 1st arrondissement

This is where Emily and Genevieve go shopping, and the truth about Laurent slips out. The restored La Samaritaine is a stunner in its own right, with an Art Nouveau glass roof and peacock frescoes, plus one of the best free views over the Seine from its upper floors.

La-Samaritaine-in-Paris
La Samaritaine

Maison de la Truffe

Address: 19 Place de la Madeleine, 8th arrondissement

Emily takes Genevieve to lunch here, surrounded by every truffle product you can imagine. Place de la Madeleine is Paris's gourmet corner, so if you visit, save time to wander next door to Fauchon and the other épiceries de luxe too.

Roland-Garros (Stade Roland-Garros)

Address: 2 Avenue Gordon Bennett, 16th arrondissement

Season 4 heads to the famous clay courts for a tennis outing on Court Philippe-Chatrier. If you are in Paris in late spring, the French Open takes over the whole complex, and the on-site tennis museum is open for much of the year if you want a look behind the scenes.

Two more Season 4 moments worth a quick stop: the Plaza Athénée courtyard ice rink at 25 Avenue Montaigne in the 8th, which turns up in winter and pairs perfectly with the Plaza Athénée scenes from earlier seasons, and Rue de Monttessuy in the 7th, the pretty street near the Eiffel Tower where Emily drops her crepe.

Season 5 in Paris

Season 5 sends Emily to Rome for much of the story, so this one is shorter, but the Paris scenes it does give us are gorgeous, and one of them is a very timely reunion with a Paris landmark.

Crazy Horse Paris

Address: 12 Avenue George V, 8th arrondissement

Season 5 sends the gang to this legendary cabaret just off the Champs Élysées. Crazy Horse has been putting on its famously artful revue since 1951, and it is a very Emily kind of night out. Book a show if you want the full experience, cocktail in hand.

Le Train Bleu

Address: Place Louis-Armand, Gare de Lyon, 12th arrondissement

Tucked inside Gare de Lyon, Le Train Bleu is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Paris, all gilded ceilings and painted panels from 1901. It is a glossy backdrop the show cannot resist, and you can stop in for a coffee or a full meal before catching a train south, which is exactly what I love to do.

Inside the Le Train BleuInside the Le Train Bleu

Maxim's

Address: 3 Rue Royale, 8th arrondissement

This Art Nouveau icon near the Madeleine has been a Paris institution since 1893, and it brings the vintage glamour in Season 5. Even if you don't dine, the façade and history are worth the detour.

Notre-Dame Cathedral

Address: 6 Parvis Notre-Dame, Place Jean-Paul II, 4th arrondissement

Season 5 gives us the reopened Notre-Dame, back in all its glory after the 2019 fire, welcoming visitors again since December 2024. Seeing it on screen feels especially moving now. Entry is free, though a timed reservation helps you skip the longest lines.

Pont Neuf also gets another moment on screen in Season 5, so if you are strolling the Seine, it is an easy one to add to your walk.

Emily in Paris Film LocationsEmily in Paris Film LocationsEmily in Paris Film Locations
Tips
  • Flights
    • Look for fares using sites like Skyscanner or Expedia.com
    • For France (Paris), coming from the West Coast, I typically fly Air France or United. From the East Coast, I typically fly Air France or Delta.
    • If you travel frequently, consider investing in a Priority Pass for access to airport lounges. Not only will you have a spot to relax before your flight and charge your devices, but you can eat and drink for free (without paying crazy airport prices!)
  • Accommodation
  • Transportation
    • For rental car agencies, try Rentalcars.com. When traveling in Europe, I use AutoEurope to make reservations. They find the best rates and let you compare car rental agencies. I typically book with Sixt.
    • For transportation from CDG Airport to anywhere in Paris, consider pre-booking with Get Transfer. It is one way to be stress-free, and you can request an English-speaking driver.
  • Tours + Atractions
    • I book tours with companies like Viator and GetYourGuide. Both have a wide variety of activities for every travel style. Other companies to look at include Tours by Locals and Withlocals.
    • If you’re visiting a city with multiple attractions, be sure to check out a discount pass, such as CityPASS or Go City.
    • Context Travel is another option, and they offer more education-based activities.
    • If you are looking to buy tickets to attractions, check out Tiquet.
  • Don't Forget Travel Photos
    • One of my favorite things to do is to get photos taken of me while on vacation. Flytographer is a great option with photographers all over the world.
  • Peace of Mind
    • It’s important to have some type of travel insurance to cover any unforeseen accidents, illnesses, threats, or cancellations. I always travel with insurance and would recommend SafetyWingSquareMouth, or Travelex Insurance as good options.
    • Should you have any trouble with flight delays to the extent that you feel you deserve compensation, I encourage you to check out AirHelp. I used them, and for 1 claim I got compensated (transparency: a 2nd claim did not, but I was still glad I tried!).

    the building where Gabrielle and Emily stop to escape the rain in S2 E3 is the “Maison ouvrière” by the Rotchild foundation, rue de Prague, in the 12th arrondissement 🙂

    It was built to accomodate workers at an affordable price and is now a prime building in the city

    1. @François – merci infiniment! I will update the post and credit you!

  15. In Season 3, Episode 2, I believe that Sylvie meets Nicolas de Léon the night after the party at Bonnie restaurant which is at 10 Rue Agrippa d’Aubigné in the 4th on the top of the La Félicité Paris Sully-Morland shopping mall building rather than Galeries Lafayette as suggested which has a different view from the rooftop there. Also in answer your query about the little pagoda in Season 3, Episode 4, I believe that is called Sinowich and is located at Terre Plain Centrale, 132 Bd de Belleville.

    1. @Belle, merci! Merci! I will update immediately and am going to try out Sinowich on my next trip in March!

      1. De rien! (No idea if the food/drinks are actually any good at Sinowich as I haven’t tested that one out myself yet but many locations for the show are certainly chosen for their pretty looks foremost anyway 😊). Enjoy your next visit!
