Epi Gaulois la Souterraine sur La Souterraine

Am conflicted about this place. The coffee tastes like flavoured milk and the cakes are synthetic and miserable, probably the result of having spent their adolescence playing Minecraft in a factory freezer. To the avarage British palate, the croissants, along with the sandwiches, will pass themselves off as plausibly French. What makes this café worth a visit is, the ease of parking; the free WIFI and the clean toilets. And what is particularly pleasant and worth mentioning are the staff; who are generally very efficient, friendly and helpful. A special mention must be made to the waiter, as he is always extremely kind, charming and professional. It's this quality of service that brings the café up from a banal 3 star Maison du Pain, to a characterful 5 star boulangerie with a pleasant café attached.

Very nice place, I recommend it.

The morning break before starting work

Plenty of choice, parking, toilets and tables for eating. Friendly staff.

Bakery / pastries / snacks / salads. Warm welcome. Perfect for a family snack. Highly recommended.

Great welcome, pleasant terrace but the pastries are really not up to par.

At this bakery, which caters to both eat-in and takeaway customers, we stopped by for lunch to pick up some picnic supplies. We thoroughly enjoyed the perfectly balanced prosciutto, goat cheese, and walnut salad, and the amazing salmon and falafel wraps—light, original, and with a lovely hint of coriander in the falafel. The Swedish bread and rosette salami sandwich was light thanks to the use of cream cheese instead of butter. It was refreshing to eat such generously filled sandwiches where the bread didn't overpower the filling. Well done on your dedication to quality! I would have loved to try the apple turnovers, but one has to think about one's waistline ;)… So, that will have to wait for another time.

The welcome and the place were very pleasant, but it has become too expensive.

A quick and inexpensive snack. They also offer sandwiches and salads for a simple lunch. The staff are very friendly and motivated.

The shop is well-stocked with sandwiches and pastries. One small drawback: "Some items are more expensive than the average snack..."
