Started by Margaux and Adi, a couple who never worked in coffee or claimed to be purists (though many of the city’s best baristas always recommend them). They just wanted a spot that felt like hosting at homes.

As their circle’s grown, so has the orbit around Mardi. IG bakers, traveling chefs, the best bagels in Paris, Taiwanese breakfast, after-hour dinners—it’s just what happens when your friends ask to use the kitchen.
