Madame Bergamote, creative workshops in Nancy
On the Grande Rue, in the heart of Nancy's Old Town, Madame Bergamote has invented a place apart: a cosy café paired with a creative workshop. You sip a tea, taste a homemade pastry and leave with full hands after a tufting, jewellery or floral workshop.
A creative café in central Nancy
At 3 Grande Rue, Madame Bergamote enjoys a dream address, on the historic street linking Place Stanislas to the Old Town. The place aims to be cocooning: a warm space where you take your time over a coffee, a tea or a lunch prepared with local, fresh, seasonal produce. The pastries are homemade, the décor carefully styled. But the venue's distinctive feature is its double life: part of the space is entirely devoted to creation, making it far more than a mere tearoom.
Workshops to create with your hands
The heart of Madame Bergamote is its creative workshops, led by local makers. On the programme, through the seasons: tufting, to make yourself a rug or a woollen accessory, jewellery making, floral art, wellbeing workshops and many other hands-on surprises. No experience is required: you come to learn, try, be guided and above all leave with a personal creation. It is an ideal way to spend a rainy afternoon in Nancy differently from visiting a museum, banking on the pleasure of making things yourself.
With friends, family or a hen party
The workshops suit every audience: adults, children, but also groups celebrating a moment together. Madame Bergamote is thus a favourite address for hen parties, birthdays or outings with colleagues, looking for a friendly, original activity. You book a session, share a moment of complicity around creation, often rounded off with a treat at the café. This collective, warm dimension is the charm of the place: here you create bonds as much as objects, in a relaxed and caring atmosphere.
The makers' corner
Alongside the workshops, Madame Bergamote showcases the work of local artisans. A "makers' corner" presents unique, handmade pieces you can buy to treat yourself or offer a truly original souvenir of Nancy. It is a chance to leave with an object that tells a story, far from standardised postcards. Between the cosy café, the workshops and the makers' display, the place embodies a new way of experiencing the city centre: local, craft-based and convivial, to discover during a break on a stay in Nancy.
