The Best Vegan food ( and almost the only) in La Rochelle

We always try to support vegan restaurants when traveling, but, in La Rochelle, there are none. Vegan is definitely not a thing in this beautiful city unfortunately. We were delighted to find this lovely little spot. There desserts are all vegan and were excellent. They also serve a lot of vegan options on their lunch menu. The service was really great, we sat on the street, and had a nice class of wine with the meal. Highly recommend.

Pros: Vegan pastries! , Great service. , Lovely vibe

Cons: Not 100% vegan

C'est bon

J'y vais régulièrement, les gâteaux sont un peu sucrés pour moi, mais il y a beaucoup d'options vegan sur le carte. L'équipe est amicale et accueillante

Pretty, quirky cafe with wonderful vegan food & cakes!

Wow, what a wonderful place. After4 days in a very vegan hostile France, we were delighted to find this amazing vegan friendly cafe in the heart of La Rochelle, thanks to trip advisor. I had a kind of savoury vegan cake with an amazing salad. It was also too much for me to eat so I took some back to the caravan for dinner!
Everything was beautifully presented, the decor very pretty & quirky and also very clean. In addition to all this, I almost fell over when I was told all the cakes are vegan & many gluten free!! Naturally I had to buy one to take back, haven't tried it yet but if the test of the food is anything to go by, it will be heavenly!
10/10 highly recommended!

Bon et agréable

C'est très mignon à l'intérieur, délicieux
Il y a plein d'options véganes en salé, et tout le sucré est végane. Le reste est végétarien.
Il y a un brunch. On a pris le risotto qui est excellent et très bien présenté.
Le lieu est calme, mignon, les chaises confortables (pas d'accoudoir donc friendly pour les personnes grosses)et bref c'est un super spot ! Pour déjeuner, bruncher, goûter.
Le staff est très gentil est à l'écoute.

Pros: Délicieux , Calme et joli, Full végétarien et beaucoup d'options véganes

Beautiful!

I had a really nice time. Sat outside with a pasty called Coffee and a cappuccino.
Both I enjoyed, the pastry was to my taste, nice balanced with cake and cream and the chocolate outside.
The person serving us was so nice to add extra cacao powder to the cappuccino as I was looking for a moka which is not on the menu.

Pros: Good (looking) pastries, Nice staff

Bonne option près de la gare

Belle sélection de thés et la déco/ambiance sont agréables. Le houmous avec les soccas était bon (même si ce n’est pas vraiment une spécialité locale ;))

Such a cute café with delicious food

I went there two times.
The atmosphere is really lovely if you like 1800’s English vibes (so cute).
The food is vegetarian with several vegan options, but the pastries are all vegan.
I had the croq’ vegan au seitan which was simple but good (the side salad was really nice).
I tried several teas (which are housemade) and pastries and they were all delicious.

Pros: Cute atmosphere, Delicious cakes, Great service

Très bon

Théière à l’ancienne, style romantique, un coin lecture, en somme une ambiance propice à la détente. La déco est vraiment soignée.
La nourriture n’est pas en reste ! J’ai pu goûter plusieurs pâtisseries et elles sont parfaitement équilibrées en terme de saveur.
Je recommande fortement d’y aller.

Pros: Les saveurs proposées , Le service, Le côté cosy

Salon de thé + déjeuner/brunch

Très bel endroit à l’ambiance Anglaise où les chiens sont les bienvenus 🥰🐩
Nous avons déjeuner un midi, tout était très bon.
Les deux hommes du groupe auraient préféré de plus grosses portions mais les enfants ont tout mangé (menu enfant top 👍🏻).
Les pâtisseries sont aussi belles que délicieuses 🤤
Je recommande et vous encourage à aller découvrir ce lieu magique entièrement végétal.
Possibilité d’acheter de la vaisselles anglaises (tasses)

Two times there!

And it didn’t disappoint. Everything’s so romantic and artistically beautiful. But I wouldn’t recommend the pastries with coloring, they kinda taste simply. Otherwise top.

Pros: 100% vegan, Gives you the vibe as if you are “Alice” in WL

Cons: Unapologetically expensive

Fabulous venue

We had eaten at the owner's previous eponymous restaurant in Orléans a couple of years back so why not try this one?
It did not disappoint. Everything was delicious, fresh and full of flavours, dishes and pastries alike.
Top notch food in a lovely atmosphere.
The only criticism would be that mains could be bigger for the price, especially in compared to the starters.
Be careful as lunch food may not be available after 1400.

Pros: Fully vegan , Very tasty , Nice setting

Cons: Mains portions a tad small for the price , Lunch service only until 1400

Tellement cozy

J'aime beaucoup un piano dans la théière, un lieu cozy avec une très bonne carte. Tout est vegan. Il y a de nombreuses options sans gluten. La propriétaire est très sympa.
J'aime autant y déjeuner que d'aller y prendre le goûter.

Pros: La cuisine, Les nombreuses options sans gluten, Le cadre

En plus d’un lieu magnifique, la cuisine est à tomber.

Difficile de faire un choix tant tout donne envie.
Nous avons goûté le tajine aux cranberries et le muffin anglais. Nous avons tout aimé et cela même jusqu’à la sauce de la salade qui accompagnait le muffin.
Les pâtisseries sont très bonnes et très jolies.

Pros: Les pâtisseries et le tajine , La décoration , L’accueil

Great food, but not fully vegan as advertised

The food is great, but the restaurant is not fully vegan as advertised, they serve dairy cheese (chèvre chaud in the menu). This was a huge disappointment as we make a point to go to and support fully vegan businesses whenever we can, and we would have liked to be aware that of this fact beforehand.

La nourriture est super, mais le restaurant n'est pas exclusivement végan comme annoncé, ils servent du fromage laitier (chèvre chaud sur le menu). Ce fut une grande déception pour nous, car nous mettons un point d'honneur à soutenir les commerces entièrement végans quand nous pouvons, et nous aurions aimé être au courant de cette information préalablement.

Pros: Good food

Cons: 1 dairy item on the menu!? Come on now

Une adresse à ne pas manquer à La Rochelle

Très beau salon de thé, dans un cadre très agréable.
Nous y sommes allés pour le déjeuner, tout était très bon, aussi bien le salé que les pâtisseries ! Le choix de pâtisserie est large, tout est fait maison et très qualitatif

Pros: Salon de thé 100% vegan, Belle offre de pâtisseries , Nourriture délicieuse

Really great food and cakes!

So grateful to find this place in France, especially so far from Paris. A blessing as we were staying in a rural location with no vegan og even very vegan friendly restaurants. Thank you!!! Keep up the good work, very glad to see how busy the place was.

Pros: Everything vegan!, Tasty food and filling , So many cake options!

Cons: Bit pricey but understably so

Nice place, nice food

Their offer for lunch is very nice and changes everyday. It was earthy and delicious.
I went back for a tea and a slice of cake, which was delicious too.

Aussi bon que beau

Un magnifique endroit, so british, autant agréable pour prendre un déjeuner que pour déguster des pâtisseries.

De la gastronomie végétale mélangeant des plats classiques avec d'autres, surprenants.

Les pâtisseries sont délicieuses, des layers cakes mais pas que...

A beautiful place, so British, as pleasant to have lunch as to taste pastries.

Plant-based gastronomy mixing classic dishes with some surprising ones.

The pastries are delicious, layers cakes but not only...

Un café vegan

Que des pâtisseries vegan, le rêve !
J'en ai pris a emporter et je ne regrette pas, elles sont toutes excellentes a un prix abordable, 4€/pièce (en comparaisons avec les pâtisseries de Paris)

Pros: Que des desserts vegan et un large choix, Du personnel a l écoute
