CAFES (59 listings) File Created: 28-Jan-03
See also: BARS
Contains:
There are more than 100 establishments in St. Petersburg calling themselves "CAFES". Here we include the following types of small cafes and eateries:

HOTEL CAFES
BEER RESTAURANTS
BEER GARDENS
DESSERT CAFES
CHILDREN'S CAFES

These cafes are usually smaller than restaurants and serve a lighter menu, snacks, and a variety of drinks (but not always coffee). Some only offer "stand-up" tables. We are not quite sure what these cafes mean when they tell our researchers that they serve "European Cuisine". The larger and better cafes serve a variety of hot dishes and are listed under RESTAURANTS & CAFES. For ice cream cafes, see ICE CREAM. For fast service, see FAST FOOD.
