CAFE SOCIETY PRESS "In France, the café is the "third place," apart from work and home, where one can put time on hold and be who you are." - Joan Osburn in the book "The Cafes of San Francisco."Hot Stuff, Homage to France/Beautiful Bistro By Angelica Pence, San Francisco Chronicle, January 29, 2003 Beaucoup boutiques. Design shops for Francophiles have sprung up all over the Bay Area. By Angelica Pence, San Francisco Chronicle, January 29, 2003 Haute Chocolate, Get your fix of all things French at Café Society By Sasha Paulsen, Napa Valley Register, November, 12, 2002 High Society, Café Society brings class and culture to Downtown Napa By Pierce Carson, Napa Valley Register, August 18, 2002 "Within 15 minutes of entering Café Society, I was seated on a really cute French café chair, drinking a cappuccino with a wafer of Belgian chocolate on the side.In the background, French ballads from the 1930’s played. Next to me, a stack of Maison Francais, a home decorating magazine. In French. I thought I’d died and gone to France." - Kevin Courtney in the Napa Valley Register, February 2002
"Glass domes cover platters of fresh pastries, croissants and scones. The small tables leave just enough elbow room to scan the house copy of the International Herald Tribune, while French pop music plays softly in the background.
"Relaxing in an authentically fitted French cafe, visitors can enjoy a perfect espresso or exquisite Parisian hot chocolate accompanied by a divine dessert and the latest International Herald Tribune or French magazines. Equally stimulating to the senses is browsing the hand-selected European treasures such as brightly colored Italian espresso machines, early 20th century chandeliers from Prague, vintage French café signs and a myriad of café furniture and accoutrements."
