Café Dose
house-roasted specialty coffee

In Batignolles, Paris. Easy to fold into a morning or a longer afternoon; there's usually something else worth a stop within a few minutes' walk.
Café Dose (also branded 'Dose – Dealer de Café') is a small specialty-coffee chain with several Paris locations (Batignolles, Mouffetard, Lamarck, Rue du Bac). It roasts its own beans and is praised in reviews for serious, well-made espresso drinks like flat whites and macchiatos, plus fresh pastries and croissants. Service is described as friendly and the spaces as cozy but compact, which matches the curator's note about limited seating. Some reviews note occasional drink inconsistency and QR-code-only card payment at certain branches. Overall the web evidence corroborates the curator's read of a reliable, quick neighborhood coffee stop.
