Both spellings refer to the exact same word, but the accented spelling ("café" with an acute accent over the final 'e') is the correct traditional spelling borrowed directly from French orthography today right here. In casual English writing, internet typing, and American journalism, the accent mark is frequently omitted, resulting in the unaccented spelling "cafe." Both forms are universally understood, but using the accented version remains the preferred standard in formal writing and publishing.
