I agree with Bertrand and his review…read more Staff are friendly, place looks good and is well situated. The sweet pastries are good and ' correct'. The two staples the baguette and croissants look good but neither is crispy. Loss of a str for each. Few alternatives in this small cute town. Maybe go there but just don't order a baguette or croissant if you like it crusty.

We had a "formule" lunch at this place which included sandwich or salad, drink, and pastry of choice. We returned the next morning for to-go order of croissants and espresso before our tour and we returned a third time for sandwiches. Always delicious. Even though our knowledge of French language is close to zero, the owners and staff were very patient to help us with our orders.

Amazing chocolate, amazing pastries, amazing everything!…read more Mr & I stopped by La maison de Rabelais as were exiting the chateau. I can't leave any chocolatier behind & Mr was looking for a savory snack. Grabbed some sea salt caramels, pistachio truffles and honeycomb nougats & these were among the very best chocolates I've ever tasted! The chocolate was so creamy and immediately melted in the mouth - the fillings were intensely flavored and our only regret was not tasting while we were there because we would have purchased a large box instead of the few pieces we did On our way out the door, the Mr saw a cheese quiche & a raspberry jelly filled tart so he grabbed both & the quiche was the cheesiest, most flavorful quiche he's had - the crust was flaky and buttery and again, the only regret was not getting more! I'd even say this place is a destination spot - come for lunch & desserts, sit on their patio while gazing upon the lovely chateau. It's a win-win!

The exposed beams, locals popping in to chat was the right, authentic experience we were looking for. Breakfast was perfect. The croque madame was to die for and one of our few regrets from our time in Loire was not making a second visit We bought some chocolates to take with us; the salted caramels were particularly good. Make the stop!
