This café had only been open 9 weeks when I visited in August so it was good to revisit it and see how things were going. Young British owners Alex and Ben report lots of activity and it was certainly busy yesterday, maybe a result of being rated 2nd best place in Aix for tea and coffee on Tripadvisor, putting les Deux Garcons at 8th position firmly in its place.
Why Visit?
I think it’s ideal for hot drinks in the morning as, unusually for Aix, it has locally-made carrot cake, brownies, banana bread and so on, all the things we Brits enjoy. Then the lunches are deliciously fresh. Soup today was broccoli with cashew nuts, served with salad. And there were tartines with avocado and
cream cheese (illustrated) or others with cheddar!
The lunchtime formule is soup with salad, carrot cake and a hot drink for 10 euros. A bargain.
Open Tues-Fri 8-18, Sat 9-18, Sun 10-17:00. 12 rue des Bernadines, Aix.
