Chop Chop runs a two-floor coffee shop and canteen on Rue Saint-Léonard in Nantes, cooking from raw produce with locally roasted coffee at the bar.

Les Triplettes puts a pastry chef, a barista and a third friend in one Nantes room, patisserie counter in the morning and canteen at lunchtime.

Tip: Lunch runs Tuesday to Friday from 12:00 to 14:30 and brunch fills Saturday from 10:30; the pastry counter is the reason to return.
Fricotte works as neighbourhood canteen, coffee shop and salon de thé on Rue des Hauts Pavés in Nantes, with pastries baked on site each morning.

Tip: Dogs are welcome and the walls rotate work by Nantes artists; Friday closes early at 14:00, so plan that afternoon elsewhere.
Tumbleweed is the first fully vegan coffee shop in Nantes, a 1970s room on Rue Santeuil pouring plant-milk drinks with pastries from Délice Végétal.

Les Bien-aimé.e.s is a café-librairie off Bouffay in Nantes, feminist and ecological writing downstairs and a quiet tea room on the floor above.
Signature drink: Loose-leaf tea and citron de Corée

Café sur Cour hides a large courtyard terrace behind a Mellinet corner in Nantes, a daytime café that turns to tapas and concerts after work.
