Cafe De La Paix - Table reservation

Stopped off here as I got off the bus from Nice to Villefranche before heading for the beach, for just a coffee. It 's one of those "tabac ' tobacconists/newsagents that serve also pastries, beers aperitifs and possibly breakfast muffins. They 're not really aimed at the tourist, and very much cater for locals from what I see, so I expect they don 't want big lens cameras taking photos of the place. That said, you get an honest taste of local snack food for the real French experience . And for coffee lovers, the coffee is magnifique. Just imagine coffee being squeezed from rocks like gold and poured steaming into a little espresso cup, well that 's how it tasted to me- liquid gold. I 'm norm...

My wife and I rent an apartment every year just a few steps away from this tabac/coffee shop. I always stop in for a coffee and a croissant every morning, and sometimes in the afternoon or evening, we will stop for a glass of wine. We never see anyone except locals here, I do not know why. It is not hard to find, but it is away from areas where most of the tourists go. It is a quite place, with some inside seating, but it is more fun to sit outside and watch the people and cars go by. However, many of the folks who stop here smoke, if that bothers you.

Right at the top of the town so good place to rest and shade after long walk/tough stairs. Unfriendly service. Waitress insisted my partner ask to use the toilet, as I waited to pay for our order, before declining our request and directing us to public toilet down the road. Much friendlier places to visit in beautiful town:

Beautiful setting looking over the port. A little elevated and this gives a great view. A few buskers playing some classical music set the tone for lovely afternoon
