It couldn't have been any other way: "Emily in Paris" has been filmed in Paris, France, since it began production (via Deadline). And we're not just talking about the obvious, self-evidently Parisian scenes either: While the show's outdoor scenes are, of course, largely shot on location in various places around the French capital, ranging from the world-famous to the lesser-known, indoor scenes are also shot in France. More specifically, the show constructs its sets at the notorious Cité du Cinéma film studio complex, located in Saint-Denis, a suburban commune just north of Paris, as reported by Le Figaro.
It only makes sense, seeing as this is perhaps the single show currently on air that thrives most on location, location, location. Beginning on Season 1, many of the show's most central settings, including the apartment complex where Emily lives, Gabriel's (Lucas Bravo) restaurant, and the Boulangerie Moderne bakery — the latter a real place, by the way! — were found in or around Place de l'Estrapade, a famous square in the 5th arrondissement of Paris (via Salut from Paris). The exterior of the Savoir office is shot at Place de Valois in downtown Paris, in a building that really does sit just a few meters away from the Palais-Royal and its iconic garden, where Emily often goes to eat lunch. Plus, virtually all of the many scenes that find Emily visiting cafés and restaurants around the city are shot in authentic Parisian establishments.
