When winter comes, it’s time to get out the tea and warm up. From the simple cocooning break to the real tasting, between gourmet pastries and sweet comforting drinks, Toulouse Secret has selected for you its favorite tea rooms in the pink city. Charming places to spend time with friends.
Bapz: the coziest
Bapz is one of Toulouse’s most emblematic tea rooms. And for good reason: its ultra-familiar, retro setting makes it a great place to settle down (including for sunday brunches) ! Here, as in the most ancestral of traditions, tea finds its English letters of nobility as it is accompanied by delicious cakes, special breads, scones and English muffins. You won’t be disappointed with their apple pie!
📍 13, Rue de la Bourse – 31000 Toulouse
Ô Thé Divin: the most terraced
Of course, tea is by definition a winter pleasure. And yet, in summer, we love to sit on the terrace of the O Divine Tea and relax just a stone’s throw from the Capitol (without the noise). Here, dishes and pastries are copious: among the most original are the succulent banoffee (a typical English banana and whipped cream crumble) and the delicious goat-honey-walnut scones, to share… or not!
📍 6, Rue Baour Lormian – 31000 Toulouse

Solaneko: the most creative
At Solaneko we’ve given pride of place to originality: traditional English pastries have given way to the best flavors of Japan, and in two words: we love it! Organic products, a relaxed atmosphere (there are even board games on site!), unbeatable value for money… Solaneko takes tea to the next level, with solid tea in the form of jasmine green tea flan and matcha tea ice cream: delicious!
📍 9, Rue Reclusane – 31000 Toulouse

Madame Bovary: the most travelled
Sitting at Madame Bovary is a bit like sitting in the middle of a 19th-century travelling bookshop: here, from floor to ceiling, the attention to detail is such that you’d almost have the impression of bumping into Lewis Carroll or William Shakespeare a table away. Come and read, play chess or dream of a time spent with a cup in hand (the wide selection of teas is exquisite)!
📍 13, Rue Peyrolières – 31000 Toulouse

Café Bong: the most exotic of the lot
Just a stone’s throw from the Esquirolmetro station, in the heart of the Ville rose, you’ll find Café Bong. In this teahouse, with its warm, exotic decor, you can escape to delicious hot drinks and gourmandises to enjoy alone or with friends.
And what would a tea room be if it didn’t have a menu? Always using fresh produce and concocting everything on the premises, you can treat yourself to a menu of cakes and cookies whose main ingredients change with the seasons. Rather salty? A snacking menu will keep you satisfied. If you want to get away from it all without leaving Toulouse, is the place for you.
11, Rue de la Bourse – 31000 Toulouse.
The Fika tea room: the most Swedish of all
Right in the heart of Toulouse, not far from place du Capitole, a tearoom like no other lets you stop off in Nordic country. Open since 2019, the café Fika has never ceased to introduce curious Toulouse residents to the specialities of this country with its yellow and blue flag. A true honorary ambassador for Sweden, this gourmet address never ceases to celebrate each Swedish national holiday by introducing its customers to the local culinary specialties associated with it.
49, Rue du Taur – 31000 Toulouse
