A concept that is midway between a French cafe and a quick-service restaurant, Lina’s Paris was founded in 1989 based on four factors: a full range of French preparations (breakfasts, sandwiches, salads, hot dishes, soups, fresh juice, sorbet and pastry), a comfortable environment (a lounge area, free Wi-Fi, free press and a Parisian atmosphere), creative and authentic French recipes, and healthy, fresh, quality products and preparation.
