A café (also spelled cafe, pronunciation is a type of
cafeteria,
often with an enclosed or outdoor section extending onto the pavement
or sidewalk, where food and drink are served. Generally serving coffee and
other beverages, cafés (or more commonly known as cafeterias) also serve
meals but this is generally not considered their main trade (in contrast
to a restaurant).
This is what a cafe is supposed to be but in the US today it can mean
anything from the above to a full fledged restaurant.
A coffeehouse, coffee shop, or cafe (French/Spanish/Portuguese: café;
Italian: caffè, German: Kaffeehaus) shares some of the characteristics of
a bar, and some of the characteristics of a restaurant, but it is
different from a cafeteria. As the name suggests, coffeehouses focus on
providing coffee and tea as well as light snacks. In some countries, cafes
more closely resemble restaurants, offering a range of hot meals, and
possibly being licensed to serve alcohol.
From a cultural standpoint, coffeehouses largely serve as centers of
social interaction: the coffeehouse provides social members with a place
to congregate, talk, write, read, entertain one another, or pass the time,
whether individually or in small groups.
In the United States and the United Kingdom, a cafe (from the
Spanish word for coffee) is a small restaurant. Styles of cafes
vary; some concentrate upon many styles of coffee, tea, and hot
chocolate, with possibly a selection of baked goods and
sandwiches, while others offer full menus. American cafes may or
may not serve alcoholic beverages, and the serving of coffee may
be incidental to the serving of food. British cafes, however, do
not sell alcohol. In France, a cafe certainly serves
alcoholic beverages. French cafes also often serve simple snacks
(sandwiches etc...). They may or may not have a restaurant
section. A brasserie is a cafe that serves meals, generally
single dishes, in a more relaxed setting than a restaurant. A "bistro"
is a cafe / restaurant, especially in Paris. Bistro food is
supposed to be cheap, but in recent years bistros, especially in
Paris, have become increasingly expensive.
