Anticafé: male name for an unusual restaurant in Russia. Today, the Anticafé is also a new space, totally atypical, which has taken up residence, since last April, on rue Quincampoix, in Paris.
Here, the concept is simple: you pay by the hour and you consume as much as you want. So, for 2-4 €/hour, hot and cold drinks, fruits and sweet/salty snacks are unlimited. In addition to high-speed Wi-Fi access, a video projector, a printer, a scanner, board games and books are available.
How does it work?
The AntiCafé is open 7 days a week at the following rates: 6 euros per hour, 28 euros per day and 300 per month. It's ideal for freelancers and addicts of the place. Here, the time is counted by a magnetic card given on arrival and you only pay when you leave.
In short, you feel at home and you come to work but also to have fun. Two notions that may not mix well, but don't worry, theAnticafé has thought of everything, including separate spaces for each of these activities.
TheAntiCafé is also a community gathering young creative, passionate and talented people.
There are entrepreneurs, filmmakers, artists and musicians, designers and stylists... Here, we launch projects together, we help each other and we share our knowledge. In short, as you may have guessed, the Anticafé is the ideal place to make contacts.
And like any new space that wants to grow, theAnticafé organizes workshops, conferences and invites personalities to animate informal debates without forgetting to propose musical evenings, board game tournaments, themed evenings or even screenings of films by authors.
