The unchanging customer experience of a street cafe in French France

A visit to France is incomplete without a drink in a street cafe. The smells and surroundings seem to be quintessentially French irrespective of where you are in the country. While the north and south have a very different feel culturally they still both share the cafe culture experience. The experience is memorable and enjoyable albeit very different to other countries. You may be rubbing elbows with someone tucking into a glass of Bordeaux while smoking a cigarette as the hustle bustle of street life rushes by your feet. The prices may be high with the economy still stalling but If you are only planning the odd cheeky one check out a cafe next time you are there and soak up the epic customer experience.  Even better if you can double it up with some bread and mussels to totally feel the French France flavours.
