Cafes are not just a Parisian novelty. In some neighborhoods here, they serve as the centers of the communities there. You could say that this applies to La Caféothèque. It's not exactly a "mom-and-pop" store by any stretch, but it is one where a lot of things happen. Think music shows, poetry readings, and the like. It's become a safe space where artists, creatives, and just about anybody can express themselves however they want to. And, of course, it's year another warm hotspot to hang out in when it's autumn in Paris. You can't get any better than that!
