I'm taking my parents to Paris and various cities in Italy (I"ve been to both before). Do they serve decaf coffee in either country and how would you ask for it?

In Italy you can order by it's major brand name: Cafe Hag. (Hag is pronounced AHg.)

In our latest trip to France, we never encountered a restaurant or café where brewed decaf was not available. What a change from the old days!

laverendrye, how did you order the decaf?

Just ask for

"un déca, s'il vous plaît"
day-cah

You won't have a prob in France.

Just in case, throw a handfull of Decaf packets into their carry-ons.

Hi sandi,

In both countries ask for "day caf".
