La Calade sur Lourmarin

Charming and peaceful place. Very good coffee, tea, and beer. Excellent homemade savory tarts and desserts. The perfect break in Lourmarin!

A little tea room in Lourmarin… I was just planning on sipping a quiet cup of tea, and then the owner (a lovely old lady) showed up with mini lemon cakes. Seriously… they weren't cakes, they were bursts of sunshine packed into bite-sized pieces. I took a bite and Provence flashed before my eyes: the cicadas, the kitschy tablecloths with olives, it was all there. Before going in, I was just a curious tourist. When I left, I was still a curious tourist… but completely hooked on those divine lemon cakes.

A lovely little hidden gem, offering delicious teas, both hot and iced, as well as matcha. The small homemade menu of cakes and quiche was amazing! And amazing service, warm and wonderful.

Wonderful place to have tea or coffee accompanied by 100% homemade pastries! The choice of teas is enormous and there is a shop to leave with your favorite teas. We go there summer and winter. There is a shaded and romantic terrace for snacks in summer and the ultra warm interior lounge for warm moments in winter. A real favorite discovered a few years ago and we remain faithful. A special thank you to the owner of the salon for her warm welcome and precious advice!
