# Conclusion

We hope you have enjoyed this course. You have learned about the importance of coffee drinking – and il bar! – in Italian life and have been introduced to some famous Italian cafes. You have also learned how to ask for a coffee in Italian and how to say per favore and grazie. We hope you’ll now take every opportunity to use the language you’ve learned and to explore some Italian cafés for yourself, in Italy or where you live.
