Le Vieux Carillon sur Guerande

23/08/2026: We arrived on the morning of June 28th around 11:45 AM, asking to have "breakfast," but were told that breakfast wasn't being served any longer at that time and we couldn't just have drinks—we had to order food! Fair enough! We were there to eat anyway—call it breakfast, lunch, or brunch; the point was to have a meal. While we were looking at the menu, the person who greeted us (I believe the owner) told us we "couldn't share dishes"—even before we had chosen anything. We were quite taken aback by these "orders," as we hadn't even expressed any intention to do such things! :((( We gave the place a try and ordered two crepes and two coffees; both were good. The cafeteria is small but charming, and I should add that the person who greeted us maintained a formal and polite tone throughout. However, what will keep me from returning is what I said to them: "Ma'am, you're bringing up these issues before we've even opened our mouths!" I think this is the biggest downside: making the customer feel not like a welcome guest, but like an unruly child in a boarding school cafeteria. We entered on the morning of June 28th around 11:45, asking for "breakfast," but we were told there was no breakfast and we couldn't drink; we had to eat! Okay, fine!!! We were there to eat; call it breakfast or lunch or brunch; we came in to eat. While we were consulting the menu, the person who greeted us (I think the owner) told us that "we couldn't share plates" before we had even chosen anything. With these "orders" We were quite surprised because we hadn't expressed any of these intentions!!! :((( We tried the place and had two crepes and two coffees!! Both the crepes and the coffee were good. The place is small but nice, and I'd add that the person who welcomed us always used a formal and courteous tone. What will keep me from returning is what I said to them: "Ma'am, you're talking to us about things without us even saying anything!" And this is a decisive minus in my opinion: They don't make the customer feel like a welcomed guest, but rather like unruly children in a boarding school spotlight.
