Located in the Saint Anthony Square at the corner of Şepcari street and Covaci street, the Old Cafe was built in the first decade of the 19th century. Restored at the same time as Manuc’s Inn and the Princely Palace, it preserves its shutters and iron doors characteristic to that period. Its name reminds of the second café recorded in Bucharest, opened by the „baş alai ceauş“ Ştefan Altentop on the 7th of August 1781 inside the Old Court. After his death in 1797, his wife inherits the Old Cafe, and sell it to Hagi Tudose Gabrovolin fifteen years later. At his turn, Hagi Tudose passes it on, in 1825, to Hristi Emanuel Papazoglu, and from this moment, the café continued to run without being mentioned in documents.
Amplasata in Piata Sfantului Anton la intersectia dintre strazile Şepcari si Covaci, Cafeneaua Veche a fost construita in prima decada a secolului 19. Restaurata in acelasi timp cu Hanul lui Manuc si Palatul de la Curtea Veche, si-a pastrat obloanele si usile de fier caracteristice acelei perioade. Numele sau aminteste de cea de-a doua cafenea mentionata in Bucuresti, deschisa de „baş alai ceauş“ Ştefan Altentop la 7 august 1781 in incinta Palatului de la Curtea Veche. Dupa moartea sa in 1797, sotia lui mosteneste Cafeneaua Veche, si o vinde lui Hagi Tudose Gabrovolin cincisprezece ani mai tarziu. La randul sau, Hagi Tudose o transfera, in 1825, lui Hristi Emanuel Papazoglu, si din acest moment, cafeneaua continua sa functioneze fara a mai fi mentionata in documente.
