As its name suggests, “La Bouquinerie” refers to its second-hand bookshop, whilst “Gourmande” refers to the tea room and its pastries and midday snacks (tarts and quick croques), all homemade using local produce. It is a unique and welcoming venue, where you can take the time to explore artists’ exhibitions and various events, and browse through second-hand books, whilst enjoying drinks, dishes and homemade pastries in a friendly atmosphere. Concert evenings (jazz, French rock and magic shows) are organised – booking is required as places are limited – with platters of appetisers and a drinks menu available throughout the evening.
Affiliated with the POUPETTE app, which is a network for motorcyclists and cyclists wishing to store their equipment free of charge at the second-hand bookshop, allowing them to explore Pont-l’Évêque at their leisure.
