Cafe RAC

Housed in a characterful lane house with a sun-drenched central courtyard, this French-style café feels like a little slice of Paris in the heart of the former French Concession.
The space blends European design with cozy café energy: long communal wooden tables, an antique-style interior, and outdoor terrace seats that fill up quickly on sunny days. It’s pet-friendly too—you might spot a cat lounging at the next table.
By day, RAC is a bustling brunch spot; by evening, it transforms into a relaxed natural wine bar with a French-Asian bistro menu. The wine list features organic and natural labels by the glass, making it a destination well beyond breakfast hours.
RAC isn’t just a meal—it’s a Shanghai ritual. Come early, embrace the queue, and settle in for the city’s most beloved French-inspired brunch .
