Last Updated: 2026/02/25, I have heard that France once drank less coffee because of a shortage of coffee, and immediately saw more people taking a nap. It may seem like an exaggeration, but it is true that the French are addicted to coffee. When the Gulf War broke out in 1991, France was also one of the countries participating in the war. some ordinary people in China worried that the war would affect the supply of daily necessities and rushed to supermarkets to buy them. Even the TV station was alarmed when the camera was in front of it.

I heard that France once drank less coffee because of a shortage of coffee, and immediately saw more people napping. It may seem an exaggeration, but it is true that the French love coffee. When the Gulf War broke out in 1991, France was also one of the participating countries. Some people in China worried that the war would affect the supply of daily necessities and rushed to supermarkets to buy them. Even the TV station was alarmed. When the camera was aimed at customers who were full of "scarce materials", they found that they took the most coffee and sugar. This became a big joke at the time.

French coffee does not seem to stress the taste, but the environment and atmosphere, most do not want to close the door "drink alone", but to join in the fun outside, even if the price of a small cup is enough to cook a pot at home. They did not drink it in a hurry, but slowly tasted it, carefully tasted it, read books and newspapers, talked loudly, and drank for most of the day. French people develop this habit of drinking coffee, consciously or unconsciously expressing an elegant charm, a romantic atmosphere, a sense of enjoyment of life. It can be said that this is a traditional coffee culture. Because of this, France can be said to have a coffee stop all over the streets, roadside, square, river bank, cruise ship, and even Eiffel Tower. And the form, style, size eclectic, there are coffee shops, restaurants, halls, rooms. And the most popular, full of romantic atmosphere, or those outdoor cafes, which is almost a portrayal of French life. No wonder tasteful Frenchmen have a tradition that it may be harder to change a café on the Seine than a religion! A real cafe, regulars not only never easily change their own cafe, even the time they come to the cafe and the habit of which coffee table they sit on are fixed. This loyalty, of course, is also reflected in the tireless hospitality of the host, who, without greeting him, brings his favorite coffee, accompanied by a plate of special snacks, and even brings his favorite newspaper, without saying thank you, which is taken for granted in an authentic cafe.
