Made by Me Fun workshops, personalized creations and moments to share in La Rochelle

A creative café in the heart of La Rochelle

Located in the heart of La Rochelle, a stone's throw from the Old Port and shopping streets, Made by Me is a creative café offering a space dedicated to artistic creation, conviviality, and relaxing treats. In a warm atmosphere, the establishment invites visitors from all walks of life to settle in for a moment of hands-on creation, alone, with friends, or with family, over a coffee, a fresh juice, or a homemade snack.

A place accessible to all, without judgment or required level.

The concept is based on a simple idea: everyone can create, test, manipulate, and imagine. No technical prerequisites are necessary to enjoy the experience. Here, the pleasure of making takes precedence over performance. Whether it's painting, drawing, cutting, gluing, personalizing an object, or simply exploring a material, participants freely choose an activity at their own pace. Materials are provided, ideas circulate, and exchanges happen naturally in a supportive environment.

A relaxed atmosphere, a participatory spirit

Made by Me's space is designed like a workshop-café, where the pleasure of creating is combined with the joy of sharing. The furniture blends wood, soft colors, and cozy nooks, creating an atmosphere conducive to both concentration and conversation. The team discreetly supports each project, offering ideas, demonstrating techniques, or suggesting variations. You can come and spend an hour or an entire afternoon, as you wish.

A gourmet and local offering, homemade

On the coffee front, Made by Me offers a concise menu featuring fresh ingredients, homemade recipes, and seasonal drinks. Flavored lattes, freshly squeezed juices, charcuterie boards, daily cakes, hummus, and granola round out the creative experience. The menu adapts to different times of day and prioritizes local producers whenever possible. The atmosphere, both relaxed and lively, is perfect for a solitary break or a shared afternoon treat.

A flexible venue for events and groups

Made by Me regularly welcomes groups, whether for a hen party, birthday, corporate workshop, or a get-together with friends. Specific packages are offered for these occasions, with personalized activities, flexible supervision, and the option to reserve all or part of the space. This type of event strengthens bonds through a simple and accessible activity, valuing everyone's participation.

To discover within a 30-kilometer radius

Located in the heart of La Rochelle, the café is an excellent starting point for exploring the surrounding area. Just a few minutes' walk away are the shopping streets, the central market, and the city walls. Charruyer Park, the medieval towers, the aquarium, and the natural history museum offer numerous opportunities for walks or bike rides.

Within 10 kilometers, L'Houmeau, Nieul-sur-Mer, and Aytré invite you to discover the La Rochelle coastline, with its secluded beaches, salt marshes, and hiking trails. To the west, the Île de Ré is just a few minutes away via the bridge. The villages of Sainte-Marie-de-Ré, La Flotte, and Ars-en-Ré offer opportunities for leisurely strolls among farmers' markets, flower-filled lanes, and cycling routes. There, you can discover local products (salt, honey, wines, soap) and landscapes overlooking the ocean.

To the south, the seaside resort of Châtelaillon-Plage is known for its seafront promenade, covered market, and thalassotherapy center. Inland, the towns of Clavette, Saint-Rogatien, and Périgny offer a link between town and country, passing through market gardening areas rich in small-scale producers. The La Rochelle region thus offers a diversity of walks, encounters, and local experiences, all accessible without a car or by bicycle.
