About
The Coffé de l’Orangerie at Château de Cheverny is a charming mid‑week culinary stop nestled in an 18th‑century stately building overlooking the castle’s magnificent gardens. Guests can enjoy a light lunch from 12:00 to 2:30 p.m. (or 12:00‑14:00 p.m. on the German page) featuring staple French pastries, homemade ice‑cream, and a variety of savoury snacks, all served in a heated, air‑conditioned space with large bay windows framing the castle.
