    I strongly advise against it. Poor quality and extremely expensive for what it is. We were a group of 9 on Sunday October 8th. Poor and slow service. Neighboring tables, who arrived later, were served before us. Dishes were served slowly, some people were already eating their dessert while others received the main course. Topping for burgers close to nothing, accompanied by a green salad without vinaigrette (we had to ask twice) and a small container of reheated canned white beans with tomatoes. 3 tiny slices of bread hidden under a small pile of defrosted and dry chocolate bread. No more bread. The waitress tells us that the previous customers ate everything. We had to ask for water 3 times. One of us finally went into the restaurant to help ourselves. The same goes for “volunteer coffee”. Tiny and overcooked pancakes. Christian etouffee cakes, impossible to eat. Once again, we had to ask for desserts because everything was out of sync and slow. After having informed of all these anomalies to the manager, the latter made us a gesture on the price. But it was not worth the price paid for the quality of the products… The only positive point: the calm of Place Bertone.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful, delicious, I would even say succulent. Our daughter was amazed in front of her cake, the whole family enjoyed it, a big thank you to the pastry chef. A great team I recommend with eyes closed. (Original) Magnifique, délicieux, je dirai même succulent. Notre fille était émerveillée devant son gâteau toute la famille s'est régalé un grand merci à la pâtissière. Une équipe formidable je recommande les yeux fermés.

    Very disappointed. I think it's a perfect place to learn to cook good recipes and do workshops but certainly not for lunch. I simply paid for a really basic crepe and a glass of syrup (basic) €11.90. Honestly, taste-wise it wasn’t crazy and two salad leaves came with it. I find the price excessive for what it represents. Too bad the address seemed nice. Concerning the welcome, the waitress is top notch and so is the shop.

    Kid friendly cafe, bright and cheery. Good choice of tea. Cupcakes are good but not great. Nice that they have a gluten free choice.

    Best carrot cake ever ! It basically kept me going through my pregnancy and the first few months of my baby’s life, and I still can’t get enough !!! LOVE IT ! The banoffee pie, cupcakes and cheesecake are definitely worth a try too ! Very friendly staff, beautiful terrasse and lovely relaxing atmosphere. And cherry on the cake : it’s baby/kid friendly <3

    We had brunch on a Saturday lunchtime, top service, very pleasant staff and owner and very good meal. We had room for our stroller so it was an ideal place for the family. Great value for money and good quantity. We highly recommend.

    From my experience with them, I can honestly say that it is a great place for all kinds of cakes (birthday cake, anniversary or any party cakes). The owner, she is really nice and polite. I highly recommended this place to everyone.

👍 Nice experience in this new restaurant. Gentle staff, there is a nice feeling. I recommend the salads which are super tasty and creative. Could not experience the fresh juice as the restaurant seems to have some teething problems but I will come back in a few weeks to try more.
