Thursday on the terraces of Paris - waiting tables at Bercy

 The terrace of Cafe Bercy at the corner of rue de Bercy and rue de Chambertin in the 12th,  spills out onto the pavement, marking a familiar Parisian connection between inside and street. It's mid-morning and the café waits, unhurried.  

Practical Paris:   It's near key spots like the Accor Arena (Bercy Arena), Gare de Bercy and the start of the Bercy Village area, so it draws a mix of locals, tourists, concert-goers and passersby.

“A Paris terrace is never just somewhere to sit, it’s a way of observing the city at its own pace.”
