Café du Passage sur Nantes

Charming café in an iconic passageway in Nantes!

We were surprised that cappuccino is not available in the morning nor any bread or pastries. It was very disappointing but this disappointment was saved by the proper and correct explanation of the lady who served us. In the experience you can see how verbal and body language work well when dealing with a frustrated customer. I appreciate the thorough explanation of this lady. Our order was also served on time. Obviously a great location to have coffee!

Friendly waiter, affordable prices, and good food. Thank you 🦋

A quality meal, with good ingredients. Excellent value for money 👍 I recommend it. ☺️

I came for lunch. Very good "homemade" food. Extremely friendly and welcoming service. I highly recommend it! I'll definitely be back.

Lovely place, clean and friendly. Not sure about the service, though (the waitress). Either I caught her on a bad day or she's just rude. Took her ages to serve my drink, serving others before me even though I'd ordered first. I'm not familiar with French rules, but apparently I had exceeded my drinks limit (2 pints and 2 vodkas!). Rather than inform me of the rules/the law, when I asked for a gin & tonic she said that they were closing and that they didn't have any gin and tonic. Found it strange that such a lovely place situated in the heart of Nantes would close that early. So, being nosey, I went to the toilet and asked to pay my bill and asked why they were closing so early. The boss was lovely and friendly and explained the drink limit rule, which I totally respect as he's looking after his business. Don't tell me you're closing and that you don't sell G&T, though, just show your customer some respect. BTW I do speak French and two ladies behind me also found the waitress rude "Purée, comme elle nous a zappé!". Still a lovely place to visit and that’s a personal point of view .

Very good meal at Café du Passage: quality meat, perfectly cooked, excellent value for money and pleasant service. I recommend it!

"Great welcome, smiling and attentive staff. The dishes are delicious and the view of the basilica is splendid.
