In a cosy atmosphere, we love to come here whether it's with friends, for a professional meeting, or even alone. It's the perfect place to enjoy hot coffees and chocolates served alongside fine wines. This Berlin-style and New York-style café offers regressive variations: vanilla, marshmallows, whipped cream, caramel, and many additional and addictive flavours.

Located in the heart of Châtelain, this café-boutique is based on originality and conviviality. With an interesting corner where you can shop for decorative items and a café-snack bar, Lulu Home Interior simply oozes charm. The hot chocolate here is prepared with black or white chocolate and can be accompanied by whipped cream. And the most demanding gourmands will not hesitate to accompany their beverage with one of the many tempting pastries on offer, or even cookies and brownies. We love it!
