Coucou Café: A Cozy Brunch Corner in Chinon
Nestled in the heart of Chinon, Coucou Café is more than just a place to grab a quick bite or coffee. It’s a space where locals and tourists alike can gather, unwind, and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. From our freshly brewed coffee to our homemade treats or our gourmet brunch, we’ve created an atmosphere that feels like a home away from home, with a menu that caters to all tastes.
Our Story
Coucou Café was born from a passion for good food, coffee, and community. As the owners, we wanted to create a space where people could escape the hustle and bustle, whether they’re looking to start their day with a delicious brunch, relax with a cup of coffee, or meet friends for an afternoon treat. What began as a dream has now turned into a reality, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to share it with the wonderful community of Chinon.
The Brunch Menu: Fresh, Local, and Delicious
One of the things that sets Coucou Café apart is our commitment to using fresh, local ingredients. We work closely with local suppliers to ensure that everything on our menu is of the highest quality. From our locally roasted coffee beans, sourced 20 minutes from the shop, to the artisanal bread we use for our famous sandwiches, every bite at Coucou Café tells a story of local craftsmanship and care.
Our brunch offerings are a big hit, with options that change with the seasons to ensure that we’re always serving the freshest ingredients available. One of our signature dishes is the “Sweet Stack,” a pancake stack that rotates depending on the season’s produce, making it a favorite for anyone with a sweet tooth. Whether it’s spring berries or autumn apples, this dish brings the perfect combination of comfort and flavor.
But it’s not just the food that makes Coucou Café special. We’ve crafted a drink menu that caters to every mood and moment. Our coffee is carefully selected from local roasters, offering a rich and smooth flavor that pairs perfectly with our homemade cakes and pastries. We also have a variety of plant-based milk options like almond, coconut, and oat milk for those looking for dairy alternatives.
For tea lovers, we offer an array of freshly brewed loose-leaf teas, as well as homemade drinks like iced tea and lemonade that are perfect for a warm afternoon on the terrace. We’ve even recently added a few new drinks to our menu, including the vibrant beetroot latte and warming turmeric latte, both of which are ideal for anyone looking for something a little different.
A Welcoming Atmosphere
At Coucou Café, we believe that good food and drink are only part of the experience. We’ve worked hard to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes people feel at ease as soon as they walk through the door. Whether you’re sitting at one of our cozy indoor tables or soaking up the sun on our terrace, we want you to feel comfortable and at home.
We love seeing familiar faces return day after day, and it’s our goal to be a space where people can come together to create memories over a great meal. Whether it’s a weekend brunch, a quick coffee break, or a sweet treat in the afternoon, Coucou Café is here to make your day a little brighter.
So next time you’re in Chinon, we invite you to stop by, relax, and enjoy the little moments with us at Coucou Café. Whether it’s for a coffee, a slice of homemade cake, or a leisurely brunch, we promise you’ll leave with a smile on your face and maybe even a new favorite dish!
