Italian Bars

I absolutely love italian bars.  They are probably one of my favorite places to pass the day and no i'm not talking about bars that serve alcohol.  I am talking about the italian coffee bars.  I go to the same one almost every day.  The main guy who runs it now knows me and gives me the cappuccino for only 1euro even when I sit outside to steal the neighboring apartments internet.  Thats the only downside to the bars is that they charge different prices if you stand up and drink coffee at the bar or if you sit down but then again its still cheaper than starbucks.  The coffee is way better too, of course.  There is nothing like italian coffee.  If french say their coffee is great they are lying.  I don't even think they have heard about espresso.  You can also get panninis and snacks at the bars and its all pretty affordable.  The bars are a great place to go for a cheap meal on the go.
