Thank you very much for a wonderful breakfast ☕🥐 Everything was delicious, with a cozy atmosphere and a perfect start to the day. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who appreciates quality food and a great morning experience.
A reminder of the quaintness of a French cafe. Small yet oh-so-delicious cakes, coffees, and other wonderful delicacies! Eat good food and enjoy life!
Tiny shop at this seaside town serving light lunch, pastries, and coffee. Outdoor seating was comfortable, with sea breeze and warm sun around it. The omelette was fluffy and savory, the multigrain bread was nicely buttered, and the vegetarian sandwich had just the right amount of pesto dressing. The pistachio coffee was good, too.
I’ve been loving this place for a long time. Whenever I want a cozy cafe brunch this hits the spot. Many people don’t like savory crepes, but this place has truly mastered how to make a savory crepe so delicious you will crave it forever. The perfect balance of ham, cheese and a dash of joy. My go to are the savory crepes that come with a delicious side salad and honey mustard sauce. My favorite: La Jambon Fromage Crêpe, and La Dinde Crêpe. Never disappointed me even when I was gluten free, they can make it GF and it tastes the same which is so impressive. Today I just tried their pistachio croissant donut and it was so marvelous and beautiful, that I had to share it.
Loved the atmosphere and service!! Lady at the counter spoke French. The food is simple and good, but is not amazing and a bit pricey for what it is. Loved the chocolate crepe with berries. Crepe with mozzarella and pesto was good, but lacked a pesto flavor. And the quiche was mediocre. There are plenty of places nearby that serve better tasting food for the same price.
