    • The Danser sous la Plume bookstore tea room is a place where a passion for books meets the pleasure of tasting. Located in Pau, opposite the Château de Pau, this third place offers a friendly and soothing atmosphere for literature lovers.

      The tea room offers a warm and welcoming space where every corner is designed to encourage reading and relaxation. Visitors can comfortably settle in with a good book while enjoying a selection of teas and pastries. The decor is carefully thought out, which helps create an environment conducive to reflection and escape.


      Karine, the owner of the place, presents a selection of varied books, ranging from classics of French literature to contemporary works, without forgetting the corner dedicated to children.

      Regular events, such as author meetings or literary workshops, are also organized, thus encouraging exchanges between literature enthusiasts. The menu offers a range of carefully selected hot drinks, as well as tempting pastries. The teas are carefully prepared, and each cup is a moment of pleasure to savor on the spot or to take away.


      The Danser sous la plume bookstore tea room enjoys a prime location opposite the Château de Pau. This historic monument, which has seen many kings pass through, is a major point of interest in the region. Visitors can enjoy a day combining the discovery of the castle with a relaxing break in the tea room. After a tour of the castle, it is pleasant to find yourself in a space where you can discuss literary works while enjoying a good cup of tea.

    This is my favorite spot when I need a break in Pau! A true haven of peace for me... between reading (quality books), writing over a coffee or a good tea. Either on the terrace with the tranquility of the castle and the view of the Pyrenees if the sun is shining, or inside surrounded by a beautiful art exhibition. And the welcome from the three women is fantastic... Thank you all three for your smiles and our always enriching conversations! Karine also offers themed evenings: philosophy café, laughter yoga, poetry readings, etc. In short, come and experience the atmosphere and the delicious pastries, and let me know what you think! 😊
