A waiters' race is a type of race that tests the speed that a waiter can carry a tray loaded with items such as coffee, water and croissants without tipping it. They are largely prevalent in France and held in Paris as the Course des Cafés, but have also been held worldwide, mainly by French diaspora on Bastille Day, with other adaptations involving localised items such as beer.
