Mon café préféré au Vigan ! Ambiance cool, petits prix assurés. Le plat du jour concocté maison à 11€90 est toujours un régal. Je recommande vivement !

Leuk barretje met fijn terras en vriendelijke bediening aan de rand van het park van Le Vigan. Hier drinken de locals hun espresso al jaren voor maar 1 euro. En wat mij betreft ook nog de lekkerste van Le Vigan!
