    They do not welcome small children. Unbelievable place, we were asked to leave shortly after being seated due to one of our young children crying and accidentally dropping a glass. I’ve traveled the world and never experienced such a lack of tolerance.

    Incredibly rude staff, never experienced anything like it. The manager asked us to leave because my 2 year old son spilled a drink. I was beyond shocked and would never eat there.

    I am surprised to see so many positive reviews here. Although the atmosphere in place is lovely, and charming, even in colder seasons, the service is horrible! I lived nearby, and I went there for a while for breakfast because it was convenient. In all this time I've never gotten so much as a smile, or a kind off-script word, or any sort nice gesture of any sort. On the contrary, I was dealt with in a classless hurry that always made me feel like I was more of an annoyance than a client. I thought they were nice enough to the locals, but after a few weekends of this, it was the same. I got tired and only ever came back if really there is no other option. If you like stereotypical "France" they have it all, from wonderful baguette to terrible coffee, including the stereotypical rudeness and borderline chauvinist nationalism.

    Absolutely appalling treatment. After my nephew nudged the rickety table and a glass dropped on the floor they demanded we leave in the most disgusting fashion, shouting and making the children cry. Worse still, when my brother and his wife posted very measured reviews (if anything overly generous considering how we were treated) the owner lied in his response, claiming the children were throwing drinks over other guests (not true!) and breaking a chair (also completely false). I have never been treated so abysmally in a cafe or restaurant anywhere in the world. Don’t eat here.

    Excellent cappuccino, good service, great atmosphere. Feels authentic, even in a rather touristy (but still charming) town.

  • 5/5 Romain 1. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A coffee that is in its juice in the old days. Relaxing, friendly staff and good music. It's like being at the post-war bistro, great ? (Original) Un café qui est dans son jus dans l'ancien temps. Reposant, personnel aimable et bonne musique. On se croirait au bistrot du coin après-guerre, génial ?

  • 1/5 reneklein72 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Worst breakfast we have ever had in France. Creepy coffee, hard butter, cheapest croissants and a rude waitress. This is not the way to start the day. Especially not on vacation. Not recommendable. Better go to one of the surrounding boulangeries, buy delicious pastries and enjoy them in the park ... (Original) Schlechtestes Frühstück welches wir jemals in Frankreich zu uns genommen haben. Grusiger Kaffee, harte Butter, billigste Croissants und dazu eine unhöfliche Bedienung. So sollte kein Start in den Tag beginnen. Vor allem nicht in den Ferien. Nicht zu empfehlen. Da besser in eines der umliegenden Boulangeries gehen, leckeres Gebäck kaufen und im Park genüsslich zu sich nehmen...

  • 4/5 Nicolai C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great decor, good food (camembert au four; burger) but seriously: "no you cannot sit at the mezzanine because it's for larger parties" (we were three, there was one couple seated upstairs) ... Very nice decor and music, good food (burger and camembert in the oven), but frankly, tell us that we can not sit in the mezzanine ("reserved") while the restaurant has barely four customers for lunch, including a couple on the mezzanine ... it's a bit the attitude typical of bad franchouillard. Pity ! (Original) Great decor, good food (camembert au four; burger) but seriously: "no you cannot sit at the mezzanine because it's for larger parties" (we were three, there was one couple seated upstairs)... Très chouette décor et musique, bons aliments (burger et camembert au four), mais franchement, nous dire qu'on ne peut pas s'asseoir en mezzanine ("réservé") alors que le restau compte a peine quatre clients a déjeuner, dont un couple en mezzanine... c'est un peu l'attitude typique du mauvais franchouillard. Dommage !

    (Translated by Google) Back to the 60s, Provencal café-brasserie with its authentic decor, its plane trees and its family atmosphere. Fast service and moderate price. An essential place where we find the atmosphere of the photo of Willy Ronis (Original) Retour aux années 60 , café-brasserie provençal avec son décor authentique, ses platanes et son ambiance familiale. Service rapide et prix modéré. Un lieu incontournable où l'on retrouve l'atmosphère de la photo de Willy Ronis

    (Translated by Google) Very beautiful decor. Pleasant heating floor for walking barefoot. All the necessary for the toilet but too expensive for a night without spa and the reception at the breakfast a little absent (Original) Très beau décors. Sol chauffant agréable pour marche pied nu. Tout le nécessaire pour la toilette mais trop cher pour une nuit sans spa et l'accueil au p'tit déjeuner un peu absent

    A must visit for an authentic rude french service experience. Pathetic service and rude wait staff…obviously. (Maybe it was not the baby)

  • 3/5 Lenka R. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice decorations, perfect location right in the centre but coffe nothing much. I had a cappucino but I was rather disappointed. It was more coffee with milk than a cappuccino(there was no creamy foam). Although I waitress didn’t make me feel welcome and didn’t give me any menu cart despite the fact there was only 4other guests.

  • 1/5 Maayan D. 10 months ago on Google
    Sat for 10 minutes nobody came to take our order. Went to the counter and asked to order, they said to wait and sit. Went back and waited for 5 more minutes but nobody came. So we left

  • 3/5 Devin G. 10 months ago on Google
    Food was good but had to beg for the check

  • 1/5 Susanne V. 8 months ago on Google
    Horrible service and very rude staff!!! We tried to have a drink here twice, because of the nice terrace. A few days ago we were sent away because it was ‘not possible’ for us to sit at a table of four with four people (we were told that it would be too crowded). A few moments later we saw another group of four taking place at the same table… Today we tried to have a drink here once again to give the place another shot. And AGAIN we were sent away by the same lady (wearing black). We were not allowed to sit outside and have drink (we were told that the terrace was only for food). Next to us many tables were just having a drink. Don’t bother going here if you’re not French!

  • 5/5 David H. 9 months ago on Google
    I have been visiting here for 10 years and I always enjoy the experience. The staff have always been helpful every visit and it’s always been hard to get a table on market day, but it’s worth the wait. If you don’t want to wait I can guarantee there will be a spare table at the cafes to both sides of the. Cafe de France- but just wait !

  • 1/5 Desmond van der M. 9 months ago on Google
    Very unfriendly staff (lady in black clothes). We were ignored/forgotten several times without any form of apology. Her vocabulary seems to exist only of single words when she’s addressing foreigners (even in French). If you’re not French, don’t go here. To anyone reading these reviews (as we should have done before coming here), take note of the aggressive and non-constructive responses of the owner to any negative review. A clear red flag.

  • 5/5 Maggie H. 9 months ago on Google
    This place is classic, fairly priced, and just a really great place to sit and watch the world go by.

  • 4/5 Paul L. 7 months ago on Google
    I can only report what I see. Twice we go to this place for a pre-dinner drink around 18:00. Both times, we are served promptly, the drinks are nice, the service professional. One waiter takes the time to take a photo of some customers despite being busy. We are happy. Yes, one waiter explains quite brusquely to customers sitting in the seats belonging to the closed cafe next door that they need to move, another that two customers may not sit at a table for four being set up for dinner but this only reasonable, it is a business after all. Oh, and we were clearly foreigners with limited French.

  • 5/5 Eliot k. 5 years ago on Google
    Doesn't get any more French that this old Cafe on the town square across from the 12th century church. Efficient service even when crowded. Outdoor and indoor seating. I've drank here many times during visits over the last 20 years. I've never eaten here though the food looks good.

  • 2/5 Elizabeth J. 4 years ago on Google
    No love shown here for the food they prepare and serve or their customers. It maybe a tourist destination but not one I would recommend, come only for a drink go elsewhere to have dinner

  • 4/5 joeri h. 4 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Very inflexible when it comes to vegetarian dishes. The meat, on the other hand, was much too firm (ordered medium-rare, got well-done ++). Service a bit slow.

    (Translated by Google) A Provencal place under the mistral that evening and the cicadas in the distance. More authentic is not possible. From a culinary point of view we are average.

  • 2/5 Stéphane V. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In view of the very hot weather I thought that a coffee would be perfect! It was good indeed but the salty addition: 5 euros 50! I thought of a mistake but it was nothing! Also how to check since the price of this drink does not appear anywhere! Tourist trap? ... To see NB: The service on the terrace of the female staff is perfect (Original) Au vu du temps très chaud je me suis dit qu'un café frappé serait parfait ! Il était bon en effet mais l'addition salée : 5 euros 50 ! J'ai pensé à une erreur mais il n'en était rien ! De plus comment vérifier puisque le prix de cette boisson n'apparaît nulle part ! Piège à touristes ?... À voir NB : Le service en terrasse du personnel féminin est parfait
