Timetable

Cafés and tearooms close quite early in the American West. Typically, they open in the morning until around 5 p.m., and lend themselves equally well to breakfast and snacks. As well as a few travelers with a book, they're mainly populated by digital nomads at work and groups of friends enjoying a moment of conviviality.

As for the bars, they close around midnight. Whatever the city, they are busiest from Thursday onwards.

Budget & Tips

In the U.S., it's hard to find really cheap places to eat - especially as the tipping policy is the same as in restaurants. However, you can save money by opting for a batch brew, coffee served in a large cup, just like at home, with most establishments offering refillsfor just two or three dollars.

A pint of beer usually costs US$8, and a good cocktail around US$15. While some bars offer happy hours, these are often very restrictive in terms of timetables.

Age restrictions

In the United States, it is forbidden for young people under 21 to consume alcohol, whether they are alone or accompanied. This law is taken very seriously, so much so that waiters and waitresses systematically ask to see the identity papers of their customers, as soon as there is any doubt about their age.

What's very local

The American West is full of delicious donut bars. However, beware: if you think they are tea rooms, they are usually small stores similar to bakeries. So make sure you have a place to sit and enjoy your purchases.

Smokers

As in all enclosed areas intended for public use, smoking is prohibited in cafés and bars, except on the terrace.
