If you need to put life on hold for a bit, Standby Coffee & Tea is just five minutes away from the Cité du Vin.
Detox with a tea in this chilled café or enjoy coffee with a view from their terrace. Food-wise, their variety of toasts, pitas, and wraps are either eat-in or to go (in case you don’t have time to standby). These can either be purchased on their own or as part of a meal (€9.90-€12.90). Standby also does some absolutely Insta-worthy buddha bowls, so get your daily carbs, veg and protein in a beautifully arranged form. Standby is a favourite among students, because it provides free wifi, a calm atmosphere, and caffeine. The team also run relaxer “afterwork” sessions featuring calming activities like massages and origami.
