We had hoped to buy some provisions at the market at the farm and picnic outdoors but when we stepped outside of the car we realized it was not the early spring, sun in your hair, light sweater wearing weather we had thought it would be. We quickly turned to one another and simultaneously asked«do they have a café?» Luck would have it that they do! And quite a cute one at that. Le Café is located next to the fruit and vegetables and has a well-done faux country farm décor, replete with large leather sofas with blankets strewn ontop, rabbit-fur covered taborets, large oil painting, rustic wooden tables, a faux fireplace, and even a room filled with chickens that you can observe while you eat. The menu is equally rustic, basically baked potatoes, soft boiled eggs, cheese and meat plates, some salads and cakes. Et voila! If you like any of those things, you’re set, if you’re don’t, too bad. My salade Parisienne at 10E was really great, but the star of the meal was the baked Mona Lisa potato topped with herbed crème fraiche. Right after the meal I picked up a kilo of them at the shop for 2E. They have some combo platters but you can also order à la carte. The prices are a but steep(5E for a baked potato and 5E for one egg) but not as crazy as Paris brunch prices. We didn’t get dessert but they looked great. Service was friendly but a bit frazzled, they miscalculated our bill twice(in their favor) so be sure to check before you pay. If you plan on going with a big group definitely reserve in advance on the weekends.

Très sympathique adresse pour prendre un brunch ou un Tea Time après une cueillette à la ferme. Les tartines œufs à la coque sont frais faits avec les produits de la ferme. Les desserts sont sympas aussi. L’accueil très chaleureux.
