The iconic café takes its name from the legendary French football star Éric Cantona. Honoring his legacy, the Cantona shows all major football matches on the TV screens in the dining room, making it the perfect playground for all sports fans.
However, the Café Cantona is not a typical sports bar. Even non-football fans feel right at home here, as the interior is cozy and the menu has more than just currywurst and chips. Spanish tapas, Russian dumplings or Moroccan delicacies are wonderful to feast on. The breakfast selection at the Café Cantona is also excellent and when the weather is nice, the typical Leipzig outdoor seating area attracts all sun worshippers.
