Where to buy bread cakes chocolates ice cream Saint-Gilles Les Bains

After an afternoon at the beach, this is the ideal cool stopover for a gourmet break! Almost all the fruits of Reunion Island can be found in home-made sorbets: pineapple, banana, coconut, letchi, mango, passion fruit, etc. And for those with a sweet tooth, around twenty flavours of ice cream are on offer: vanilla shortbread, chocolate, tiramisu, stracciatella, and many others. Quite simply a delight! There is a terrace behind the counter where you can sit down to eat, but the best thing is to sit quietly in front of the ocean. Pots, cones, cups, half-litre and litre.

Located in the marina, La Case à Pains is the best old-fashioned bakery and pastry shop in the West. You can enjoy traditional breads, organic breads and melt-in-the-mouth pastries. The opportunity to stock up for your picnic of the day. But above all, it is one of the few places open in the morning if you want to have breakfast before your diving or fishing trip. You will be well installed there, unless your arrival coincides with that of the cruise buses. The big drawback is that the terraces need to be better cleaned.
