Summer is coming, and so is the heat. And as I mentioned in previous posts, in addition to being hot, France is not very adept at air conditioning. So, to cool off, they stick to the good old terraces. It's a beer, sunglasses, good company (whether people or books) and that's it!
Strasbourg is a city full of cafes and bars, and the list of places to enjoy a terrace is endless! A particularity of the city is that, as its center is almost entirely dedicated to pedestrians, the terraces are much more enjoyable to enjoy, because there is no noise from cars, motorbikes, horns and pollution. It is a tranquility and peace that only proving to see!
So here's a short list (not to complicate anyone's life) of terraces to enjoy in Strasbourg.
1. Café Atlantico
Located on the Quai des Pêcheurs, on the banks from the river l'Ill, this barquinho-café-bar is an old acquaintance of the locals, and it is not just close! The view that the cafe offers is beautiful!
2. Café Bale
In the heart of the Krutenau district, on Place d'Austerlitz , Café Bâle offers a good atmosphere, in a square surrounded by bars and its terraces, always with lots of entertainment!
3. Bar le Gayot
Another bar with a calmer proposal is the Le Gayot bar. Located on Place du Marché Gayot, this terrace is enchanting for the view. The square is surrounded by buildings of typical constructions of the region. Beautiful to see!
4. L'Abbatoir Café
This cafe stands out for its particularity: it is closed. This means that you do not have an open view of the street, which gives the feeling of being in the backyard of a friend's house. Very comfortable!
5. The Dubliners
One of the liveliest bars in the hypercentre of city, Dubliners gathers a crowd on its terrace, and the entertainment breaks records on classic football days!
The important thing is that no matter where you decide to go, the moment of decompression after a day of work (or a day of intense tourism) is guaranteed!
À bientôt e, Perdoe o meu francês! 😉
