An old carterie transformed into a delightful tea room, creperie and bakery at a time. A decor that refers to the world of cinema in tribute to the great actors who stayed in Saint Paul.

At noon, you can enjoy a beautiful salad, a dish of the day, a salty pie or a pancake. In the afternoon, tea time with a "Dammann Frères" teas (30 varieties for tasting and for sale).
