Limoges - Cafes
Bars, cafés and brasseries (which serve food) overlap, all offering a place to relax, enjoy a drink and a bite to eat and watch the world go by during the day, and often far into the evening, too, when some have good music. For good bars look in the Motte/Château quarter and in the big modern squares close to the medieval district.
