Coconuts, Artisanal ice cream parlor and crêperie in Vieux-Boucau-les-Bains, France.
Coconuts is a crêperie and ice cream parlor in Vieux-Boucau-les-Bains that produces homemade ice cream and Breton-style crêpes. The shop crafts both specialties using traditional methods and fresh ingredients.
The shop opened in 1984 and started making ice cream in 1993 after the owner met an Italian ice cream maker. This encounter led to fully internalizing ice cream production by 1999.
The establishment received recognition from the Gault & Millau gastronomic guide for its contribution to local culinary excellence and handcrafted desserts.
The shop sits on Rue des Bruyeres, about a kilometer from the beach, and operates daily from 10 AM to 11:30 PM. Pricing is moderate and the staff is welcoming.
Staff use a special spatula technique to shape generous portions and offer surprising flavor combinations like speculoos with tiramisu. This hands-on approach sets it apart from typical ice cream shops.
