Cafes in Paris

Cafes serve best for socializing and most importantly the food and drink experience. Cafes can be used for meetings, a day to be with your friends, or even somewhere to go when you want to relax and treat yourself. While walking in the streets of Paris you’ll end up passing tons of amazing cafes that have probably been around for very long times, including the oldest cafe dating back to 1686. Places that are that old tend to be filled with great history inside.

You would probably expect cafes to serve drinks like coffee and foods like biscuits or pastries, but most cafes include much more, like menus that offer meals for any time of the day or even full bars and large wine selections! And inside some cafes, they can be fancy, or almost museum-like with lots of paintings and drawings that hold lots of history in them. To enjoy a Paris cafe fully you should understand the culture. First, the prices are the way they are because you are meant to be sitting and sipping and taking your time while you are at cafes. Also to call a waiter you should use ‘monsieur’ since its more polite and using ‘garcon’ means ‘boy’. Another is that the service and taxes are included in the prices on the menu so they won’t be added to your bill. Unfortunately Paris cafes have been decreasing, but they won’t disappear completely.

Today, you can find Paris cafes pretty much anywhere you go! They are all over Paris and its another must you should add to list of things you want to do when you go to Paris.
