Dreamin' Man
Café — Quartier De La Folie Mericourt (Paris)
À propos
Dreamin' Man est un minuscule coffee shop japonais niché dans le 11e arrondissement, créé par Yuichiro Sugiyama et sa compagne pâtissière Yui Matsuzaki. Ce lieu intimiste propose des cafés de spécialité danois (April et Prolog), des pâtisseries maison et une atmosphère zen inspirée par Neil Young. L'établissement, ouvert en 2019, se distingue par son intérieur dépouillé, ses tables vintage et son ambiance musicale folk. Les clients réguliers sont des artistes, designers et intellectuels qui apprécient l'expérience café soignée et les gâteaux faits maison comme le pudding japonais ou les sablés en forme de cheval.
Mentions
Dreamin' Man – Café Review | Condé Nast Traveler
What were your first impressions when you arrived? A sliver of a coffee shop on the end of the 11th arrondissement with a custom wood bar, upcycled tables and stools, and lots of wabi-sabi style. Folk music à la Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen plays on repeat, creating a chill vibe for a crowd of regulars (many of who come twice a day). At most, there will be two people working the bar including the owner, Yuichiro Sugiyama, who takes the art of coffee very seriously. What’s the crowd like? Intellectuals, artists, designers, architects, writers: it's a creative and artistic crew that hangout here regularly. Mixed in are the coffee tourists who know that there is something special about Sugiyama's pocket-sized café. What should we be drinking? Yuichiro Sugiyama works with April and Prolog coffee from Denmark for pour-overs, espresso, and lattes. For tea drinkers, opt for the hojicha latte which can be made iced in the warmer months. Main event: the food. Give us the lowdown—especially what not to miss. All of the sweets are made by Sugiyama's pastry-chef girlfriend Yui Matsuzaki, from scones served with cream and jam, seasonal fruit tarts, lemon cake, shortbread cookies, muffins, and occasionally a Japanese pudding that's to-die-for. And how did the front-of-house folks treat you? Discreet, quiet, and very focused on coffee. What’s the real-real on why we’re coming here? Ideal for catch-ups with friends and solo outings with a good book or a notepad.

Dreamin Man - specialtystories.coffee
You can find this little coffee shop – opened in 2019 – in close distance to the Place de le République. There are only three round tables that you can sit around or you can take a place by the counter. The Dreamin Man is a true family café, opened by Yuichiro (former barista of Boot Café) and his wife. The place is always full and hard to find any free table, but it’s worth to wait, as the coffee experience will speak for itself. Minimalist design, the wall is tiled on one side and left fully natural on the other, none of the chairs or tables are uniform, but it’s still charming. Stepping inside feels like an escape from the noise of the big city, seems like as the time stopped here. There is a wide variety of filter coffees to choose from, when I was there I had the chance to select from three April and three Prolog coffees. As the selection of others drinks and food is not so broad, they can keep great focus on coffee, which Yuichiro prepares with his whole heart and soul.
