Cafe De la paix sur Villefranche-Sur-Mer

An authentic Bar-Tabac , it’s real ! Great place to have a drink under the olive tree and mingle with the kind locals

Great atmosphere, excellent for an afternoon drink.

Nice affordable cafe little bit out of tourist rush

Stumbled upon a charming, cozy bar nestled along the winding, stone-lined streets of Villefranche-sur-Mer—an unforgettable hidden gem on our journey.

Upon retrieving my croissant from Boulangerie de La Paix, I came upon this Café and the wait staff came over and asked what we would like to order. We ordered an espresso and a café crème. The espresso was delicious and had not a single bitter note. Well balanced and smooth. I only wish the waitstaff were as nice. I understand it's a very local vibe where it is very casual and cozy, as it serves as a quiet place for the locals to sit and enjoy, but I got a feeling that the abrupt manner of the waitstaff did not care for tourists. When we went to pay, I was quite confused by the interior. The atmosphere seemed to give me the feeling of a convenience store, while the outside tables and table service had me believe it was a café. They sell tobacco, lottery, and other grocery items. Regardless, the exceptional espresso that went along with my croissant from Boulangerie de La Paix gave us a bit of respite from all the walking.
