Description:
- A bright yellow sign with red feather announces Presse, hinting at what's inside. Mixing urban industrial design and European elegance- exposed steel beams and brick walls opposite blue damask wallpaper- this unpretentious café offers local and international newspapers and an eclectic magazine selection. Grab morning coffee and pastry at the streetside counter while perusing Le Monde. Linger at a café table over a baguette sandwich and glass of wine for lunch. Join friends in the evening for cocktails and steak frites among framed football (soccer) jerseys and L'Equipe headlines in back room. Full bar, affordable French wine list. This is spot is full of journalists and rockstars alike, everyone who knows where to find great food and fantastic people is here.
