Le Carré Bellêmois, Bakery and pastry shop in Bellême, France
Le Carré Bellêmois is a bakery and pastry shop in the town of Bellême, on the place de la Liberté in the center. Inside, shelves hold rounds of bread and baguettes alongside a glass counter displaying pastries, cakes, and house-made chocolates, all prepared on site.
The shop was started by Meg and Yohann Berard-Fournier, who built it around a shared passion for traditional baking and the desire to serve their local community. Over the years it has become a familiar part of daily life in Bellême.
Le Carré Bellêmois is a regular stop for many people in Bellême, where picking up fresh bread in the morning is part of the daily routine. The display of pastries and house-made chocolates also makes it a natural choice for small treats or gifts.
The bakery opens early in the morning and closes in the early evening on weekdays, and at midday on Sundays, so a morning visit is the best time to find the full range of fresh bread and pastries. The shop sits right on the main square and is easy to spot on foot.
In summer, the shop also serves house-made ice cream, which is not something you would expect from a standard bakery. It comes in a cone or a pot to take away, adding a seasonal side to the usual offer of bread and cakes.
