La Cyclerie Café, located in Poitiers, is a unique place that combines passion for cycling and conviviality. This hybrid space serves as both a cozy café and a bicycle repair shop.

Poitiers

Highlight • Settlement

Poitiers benefits from the City and Country of Art and History label and in the hyper-centre, the "plateau", a short walk allows you to discover the typical half-timbered and half-timbered houses, the Palace of the Counts of Poitou and the majestic Notre-Dame-la-Grande. It is the starting point for many very nice itineraries!
