Just down the street from our Airbnb, this Rouen dessert shop was a delightful find. The facade is…read moreelegant and inviting, and you have the option to dine outside if you prefer. Inside, you're greeted by a display of handmade pastries and cakes. The space is intimate, with tables fairly close together, and the staff spoke English, which made navigating the menu easy. Our order came out quickly and we wasted no time digging in. My wife and I each ordered a drink and cake combination. If you get the hot chocolate, go with the Grand-Mère. It's noticeably sweeter and richer than the Dame Cakes blend, which even with a couple of sugar cubes added still fell a bit flat. My dessert was excellent. My wife's cake was decent, though her tea was disappointing and largely went undrunk. It's a fun and charming experience, but the menu is a bit hit or miss. Worth doing a little research ahead of time, and don't hesitate to ask the staff for recommendations based on how sweet or rich you like your desserts.

I stopped here because I was completely frozen and thought tea would be a good idea. This shop is a…read morelovely bakery in front and a small tearoom in back. It's cozy, with very pretty floral decor. If you come after 12, they serve a small lunch menu. I was there early so I had a pot of tea and cake - a raspberry something or other. The cake was really good - dense but not dry and not too sweet. Perfect with tea. Service was fine, and the prices are fair.

Who knew? A donut and bagel found open in Rouen. Wonderful little place with extremely helpful…read moreyoung staff. To the bagels and donut....had the lightest bagel sandwich I think ever had with chicken breast and emmentaler cheese, all the condiments. Excellent with chips and two coffees...under Eu14.

If you visit Rouen and enjoy the show Friends, this place is worth visiting for a cup of coffee and…read morea pastry. With the exception of the name change, the logo is the same as the well known hangout, they also have a similar set-up, including a couch and chair, similar to those that the gang always lounged on. The show plays on silent with French subtitles, there's a picture of "smelly cat", and other mementos from the show. Even the bathroom door is painted the color of Monica's apartment. We went for breakfast and while they have a rather extensive list of bagel sandwiches, they don't offer those for breakfast; I was a little surprised by that because bagels are a staple for breakfast in New York, where the inspiration for the cafe takes place. I eventually got over the shock and ordered a coffee and a caramel chocolate chip muffin, sweets really aren't my favorite thing to eat for breakfast, but this muffin was delicious- moist, with just the right amount of caramel and chocolate chips- and the whip cream placed alongside was the perfect addition to my coffee. I recommend this place, but if you're looking for a bagel, go during lunch hours.

The one thing that I remember about this cafe was that all of the tables had army recruitment…read moreposters on them, or at least under a plastic covering so they didn't get wet. We landed up here after our visit to the museum, namely because we were wandering around looking at one of the old churches, and this place happened to be nearby. Mind you, it seemed weired seeing an army recruitment poster in France because it seems, in my mind, something that only the Americans, and Australians, do. It did put me off the place a bit, and I can hardly say it was one of my favourite places, though the coffee was okay.
