Paris, France: Café Culture - Rick Steves’ Europe Travel Guide - Travel Bite

Yup, we loved the cafe culture in Paris. Incredible food everywhere...

They spend their time more in cafe then on their job.

"Slow service, it's about how well you eat." I remember waiting 2.5 hours for food to simply arrive at my table one time. In that length of time I saw 2-3 tables come after us, order, and leave before us. Yeah... sometimes lazy is just lazy. I gave an excellent tip. They obviously needed it more than I did.

The French are lazy mofos.

Time to let the cigarettes go. All that yummy food not put to good use because taste buds!

France seems to recognize the advantages of not being a melting pot country, unlike the U.S.

It is essential that we take care of the course of education, and as you also know, larger spending must be in the course of scientific, cultural, literary and community research.
In order to bring all dimensions closer, we must create a polarized environment for intellectuals in order to develop a new vision consistent with the outputs of the contemporary world in terms of awareness and innovation.
Associations interested in promoting the country's official language should set up cultural cafés and address cafés in the names of poets, intellectuals or drawings such as books for each passion for writing or reading.
The result will be to raise the level of reflection in the collective consciousness, which will form a modern generation capable of distinguishing linguistic, cultural and life errors extensively.
Let us not forget that the famous Social Media, it is their responsibility to promote cultural cafés, in order to introduce the places of literary cafés and to introduce it to others everywhere.

i love your insights! great job in all your videos

So

I visit my Daughter in Paris twice a year , The wonderful Cafe Society and Dining atmosphere of the French is simply superb, we don’t have that in the U.K. viva La France !!!!!

I live in near Calgary, Alberta. It’s impossible to go a flames game and not drink and drive or have a dd unless you live along c-train or 10 min away from the arena

"It's not about how fast you eat; it's about how well you eat." Not just travel advice, that's life advice.

Maravilloso París me gustaría ir en febrero gracias por el video siempre veo los q pasan en el canal 23 el 17 aquí en miami siempre me gustan mucho saludos desde miami

yeeet

..............

very nice

Not a single person in that video drink coffee...that's quite funny

bien chic

This is so wonderful. Americans have no sense of culture or class and want to do everything fast and now. They don’t know relaxation or how to slow down or enjoying smaller details.

\goodness, why do you have to rush to enjoy a very good cup of coffee! I'm relieved that these guys enjoy their time sipping their brew.

Just returned from Paris yesterday and was delighted by their way of life. They exist on a level of order and sophistication far higher than we in the US. I'm knocking the US but rather stating my personal observation which, coincidentally, seems to be the consensus. In addition, my experience in Paris was all positive. I encountered no rudeness or arrogance. Importantly, I always made a conscious effort to speak as much French as I could at which point they happily spoke english to me. I cannot wait to return.

you can't make a first name greeting with your waiter for it is considered only an American thing.

Nice cafe and all. But don't be fooled by this this so called "cultured" cafe culture of Paris. Tourists from all over the world consistently say in surveys that the French are the least friendly and most rude of all people of Europe. And with all that European progress you still have people smoke cancer sticks next to others in the cafe. Disgusting!

Cafe Clovis in Paris, anyone now how to find it?

I have to laugh at some of the comments on here. Most Americans know "nothing" about culture! The Europeans know how to live! Americans have it all "backwards". The Europeans appreciate "good food and drink". American's have this "fast-food" culture that is very unhealthy. Why would you go to Paris and want to eat Burger King? When you travel to another country, do what the locals do! In France (europe), slow service IS good service, because good food and drink should be enjoyed "slowly" and "appreciated".

Welcome to France British people.

LOVE this video…and the positive cultural education on understanding dining etiquette in France. 

Great video! I must remember to take the time to relax at one of the many cafe's on my next visit to Paris.

Cool!

I loved the Parisian Café's when I was there :)
