NTC\'s Dictionary of Spanish False Cognates
cafetería / cafeteria
\"cafetería\" is almost the equivalent of \"coffee shop, snack bar\". This is a modern term in Spanish, as is the English term \"cafeteria\", standing for the traditional \"café\". \"Cafeteria\" is translated as \"restaurante de autoservicio\" or simply \"autoservicio\"
Un \"restaurante de autoservicio\" no tiene camareros; una \"cafetería\", sí. A \"cafeteria\" does not have waiters; a \"coffee shop\" does.
