Les Touche à Tout

Les Touche à Tout is a refreshment stand by the canal serving cold beverages, homemade ice cream, and snacks made from fresh garden ingredients and locally sourced products. The menu combines drinks and light fare prepared on-site with an emphasis on ingredient quality.

The stand continues a tradition of rest stops that once lined the Nantes to Brest canal, where travelers paused during their journeys. These establishments were essential to canal life and commerce in the region.

The owners source from regional suppliers and emphasize handcrafted ingredients made by local producers. This approach reflects a commitment to supporting the region and maintaining direct connections between the place and the people who grow or make what is served here.

The stand operates seasonally and is open Thursday through Sunday during these months. Cash is the preferred payment method, so visitors should bring money in smaller denominations.

Beverages are crafted with organic sugar beet syrup produced by regional farmers using traditional methods. The herbal infusions draw on fresh sage, mint, and marjoram grown in the on-site organic garden.
