An open, self-service eating area on Deep Space 9's Promenade where residents and travellers order meals from a bank of replicators, best remembered as the setting for Bashir and Garak's regular lunches.
The Replimat is the station's informal canteen, a cluster of tables on the Promenade served by replicators rather than by waiting staff. It is free to use, which makes it the natural alternative to Quark's for Starfleet officers, Bajoran workers and passengers waiting for a transport.
Garak introduces himself to Julian Bashir there in Past Prologue, and the two go on meeting at the Replimat for lunch for years, arguing over Cardassian literature and human naivety in episodes such as The Wire and Distant Voices.
The replicators are a frequent source of complaint, and long queues form whenever they break down. The Replimat appears throughout the series as a backdrop for quiet conversations between members of the crew.
