Mon coin préféré pour boire un café en fin de journée lors de mon séjour à Grenoble. Le Café de la Place Championnet a un charme tout particulier : la terrasse est accueillante, même quand il fait froid, et le serveur est vraiment sympathique. Une ambiance détendue et agréable, parfaite pour lire un livre, discuter ou simplement apprécier le moment.
