Etymologie (Englisch)

The etymology is unclear; it is presumed to come from Poitevin-Saintongeais bistro, bistrot, bistingo, or bistraud (“lesser servant”), or bistouille, bistrouille, a colloquial term from the northern area of France for a mixture of brandy and coffee, the kind of beverage that could be served at a bistro. The first recorded use of the word appears in 1884, the next in 1892 ("bistrot").
A popular folk etymology of the word claims that it originated among Russian troops who occupied Paris following the Napoleonic Wars. In taverns they would shout the Russian бы́стро (býstro, “quickly”) to the waiters, so that "bistro" took on the meaning of a place where food was served quickly. This etymology is rejected, due to the 69 year gap between the proposed origin and the first attestation.
