📖

Full description

La Cité is an offbeat cafe-bistro where colourful decor, hanging plants and shelves of books set a relaxed, cool tone. The menu covers coffee, light fare, wine, beer and spritz, and the opening hours stretch from morning into the night, later on weekends.

Reviewers describe friendly bar staff, good music and plenty of seating, including couches, which makes it popular both for a drink with friends and for a few hours of laptop work. A short wait for a table is common, but service moves quickly.

Rated 4.6 across nearly 2,000 reviews.

Good to know

Expect a short wait for a seat at busy times
settle on a couch if you plan to work or read for a few hours
it stays open until 10:00 PM on weekdays and later at weekends, so it works for an evening spritz too.

Reviews

I’m sat in this cafe/bar now just sipping a spritz and enjoying the vibe. It’s very relaxed and cool. Good music playing with plants and books everywhere. The girls behind the bar were friendly and the drinks are good. I didn’t have anything to eat but it looked tasty, especially the cakes.
