They have a selection of magazines and used books you may read if you would like to read something when you stop in for a snack. They are open Mondays 2- 7 pm and Tuesday-Saturday 11 am – 7 pm. They also organise French-English conversation exchanges on Monday and Friday evenings from 5-7 pm. There is no entrance fee, but they ask that you order something to drink.

Situated down one of the little pedestrianised alleyways by the ‘Ancien Courier’ is this great English bookshop for adults upstairs and a children’s corner downstairs. They offer weekly language exchange conversation groups, a bookclub and on Wednesday afternoons storytime for children between the ages of 3 and 7 years. You can also have a coffee inside or outside here. (Wendy Johnson)
