Depends very much on the country I guess. The only country I've been to where I saw almost everybody use a card was Norway, although they did accept cash everywhere. Contrarily in the Netherlands (where I live), cash is still quite prevalent, although there is a trend for shops to stop accepting it.

The most well-known one is Marqt. Others in my neighbourhood in Amsterdam: Vlaamsch Broodhuys, Grapedistrict, De Stadskantine, Tolhuistuin (venue); also the Beauforthuis (venue) in Austerlitz, so it is really not only restricted to the big city. The Landmarkt and Ekoplaza near me have only one checkout lane that accepts cash.
