bistro (Fr) ; café, coffeehouse, grill, buvette (Fr) ; rathskeller, caberet.

Bistro is Russian for ‘quick’ and Russian troops, entering Paris in 1815, were all yelling ‘bistro’ at the top of their voices … they were starving and wanted sustenance in a hurry !

The bistro first became popular in 1940’s Paris when it might have been a café or a snack bar or even a small restaurant

Café, in French, does not indicate an establishment that serves food … “drinks” are all you can guarantee at cafes.

One of Warren County’s few remaining 18^th Century dwellings in continuous since 1750. The building is part of an original log cabin built on this site near the Roaring Rock Brook.

It was once a colonial stagecoach stop and meeting place for country folk to gather and exchange news & gossip of the day.

The Oxford Furnace, the Scranton Family & Thomas Edison all had direct influences here.
