Introduction: Food & Drink: Boulangeries, Patisseries & Tea Shops

<< Food & Drink || Fast Food >>

There are several different kinds of bakeries; some with seating or counters for light breakfasts or quick snacks. Even if they don’t have seating, no one minds if you buy something and take it to a café or bar tabac as a nicer, sometimes cheaper, alternative to the continental breakfast served in your hotel.

Boulangeries sell breads, croissants and sweet breakfast pastries. Patisseries specialize in fancy cakes, tarts, pastries, and other sweet-tooth fantasies such as confiserie (handmade candy), chocolat and glace (ice cream). If the sign also says Salon de Thé, you can sit down for beverages and light meals – grilled sandwiches or quiche, for example.
