      Located in Rochefort, Charente-Maritime, L'Atelier Café stands out as an artisanal coffee roastery where a passion for coffee guides every step of the process.

Chocolate lovers will appreciate the presence of Bonnat chocolate, an iconic name in French chocolate making.
      The establishment also carries the Jura brand, a Swiss specialist in automatic bean-to-cup coffee machines, allowing you to recreate the quality of a roaster's coffee at home. A wide range of accessories is also available: teapots, coffee makers, mugs, cups, tea caddies, and gift sets, carefully selected to combine aesthetics and practicality.

    By chance, while passing through Rochefort, I stopped at this shop run by an enthusiastic coffee roaster who knows how to talk about the coffee she sells. I left with a very good Honduran coffee and a house blend that has character, personality, and rare flavors. The people of Rochefort are lucky!

    Personally for me L'atelier café is an essential address for me in Rochefort to offer me a moment of relaxation to enjoy a coffee, a chocolate, a tea of ​​excellent quality at a very reasonable price. It is a pleasure to be there among people of pleasant company in a place that could not be more convivial. I also like to buy tea, infusions, coffee, chocolate, mugs, cups and all other accessories allowing you to make a hot or cold drink of excellent quality at home. When the weather is nice I take pleasure in consuming a delicious hot drink on the Terrace.
