Cafe Scientifique is a place where, for the price of a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, anyone can come to explore the latest ideas in science and technology. Meetings take place in cafes, bars, restaurants and even theatres, but always outside a traditional academic context.

For general enquiries, email Cafe Sci.
Cafes online
Cafes around the world paused as part of governments’ measures to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.
But to keep their regular dose of science – and goodness knows we need it – going, several cafes experimented with taking the cafe online, and some are now moving to a hybrid model.
Join them if you can – the beauty of an online cafe is that you can join from anywhere.
