Where to drink hot chocolate or Christmas tea in Limousin?

Nathalie and Denis’ bookshop in Nexon is the ideal place for a convivial, gourmet break (yes, you read bookshop right!). This original place combines literature and gourmet pleasures, offering a warm setting in which to relax.

You can enjoy a good coffee and delicious cakes, while discovering the latest literary releases.

For lunch, their delicious savoury tartines or charcuterie and cheese boards, made from 100% local produce, are a real treat. It’s a place where you can feel good, and where you can recharge your batteries between Christmas shopping sprees!

Choncote (I hear it’s the cat’s name) is THE warm, colorful coffee-shop, a stone’s throw from the town hall (admire its illuminated facade!), perfect for a coffee or matcha latte break right in the heart of Limoges.

If you’re a fan of cookies 🍪, the homemade recipes will make you downright addicted, with must-tries like the all-chocolate or the original pink praline and white chocolate cookie. When it comes to hot drinks, you’ll find the best varieties of coffee on the menu, which changes regularly. No routine for coffee-lovers!

If you’re in the middle of a Christmas shopping marathon, take a seat at the back of the room. Enjoy your banana bread, chai latte…or the famous bombón coffee. A truly suspended moment 😌

This cosy, welcoming venue is the perfect place to meet up with friends and chat over a cup of excellent tea from the “Jardins de l’Ermitage”. You’ll discover a wide selection of coffees, teas and infusions, not forgetting the unmissable Viennese chocolate ☕.

Magalie also pays special attention to snack and lunch times, preparing savory cakes, some gluten-free and lactose-free, as well as most desserts. And when it’s not homemade, it comes from Desem bakery and Christophe Aubisse 😋.

Let yourself be tempted by this well-known Limougeau address, whether it’s for a relaxing moment after your Christmas shopping or a gourmet getaway with girlfriends (and boyfriends too, don’t be jealous 😜)!

A veritable institution in Limoges, Maison de thé L is located in the former Bourdeau de Lajudie town house (17th-20th century), a historic monument in the heart of the city. With its architecture and available books, this cosy tearoom offers a timeless ambience.

Connoisseurs will appreciate the wide choice of teas and infusions, to warm up after a stroll around town, or a warm snack break, right next to the Christmas entertainment.

We’re counting on you not to leave the little treats under their cloche 😉
