In Search of Good French Coffee in Grenoble

Grenoble. Here I am. A Russian student, who likes France and delicious food.

Grenoble is a very multi-faceted city: on the one hand - a typical French town with narrow streets, architecture, and the monotonous life; on the other hand - a city where the hum with life, as most of the population are visitors (cause of skiing) and students. Authentic and modern all rolled into one. Overall - a pleasant town with a good atmosphere.

France. Many people love it for the cozy cafes and restaurants. And Grenoble fully supports the proper glory of their country. So to come here and do not visit the restaurant and then did not have a cup of coffee or hot chocolate at a local cafe - just unimaginable.

H’m, I want coffee. So, I need to find a good place with best coffee. Internet will help me.

Aha. I discover it. Cafe "Round Table" (Café de la Table Ronde), which housed one of the squares of the old city. This is the second duration of its existence cafe in France. It appeared in 1739 and since then operates to this day.

Well, I'm going to visit it for today's diner. My comments coming soon J

“Café Le Sporting” : a French & popular coffee experience

I practiced it on a Saturday afternoon. Yes, it’s crowded but you are in the heart of the city!

It is located in the place Grenette which is one of the most popular place in Grenoble. The tramway, the shops and the tourism office are so close, so why not having a coffee break. In winter, the terrace is warmed. In spring & summer, couches and armchairs are setup outside the pub : comfortable point of view of cross-section of Grenoble citizen life.
About the expresso you can get here : it is strong and tasty, just a bit bitter.
