Walking the main street of charming Lectoure in Gers on a sunny Autumn Sunday, a friend and I decided to have a very French café-crème in this tearoom turned bookshop ! Pretty place with an attractive cultural environment ! Unfortunately, the owners of this place might know a lot about literature and food but they know nothing about hospitality. Not a greeeting when we entered the place and placed our order, we were very rudely asked to move to a smaller table as only 4 of us (my friend and 2 other customers with a baby in a pushchair were sitting on a table for 6 (nobody else around at 11.15 in the morning, quite early for lunch service though ! . Making a comment when our coffees were served, the man owner took them very wrong (how dare we criticize his place ? , eventually took the beverages back and greeted us with a finger up as we were leaving the room.. Tiredness at the end of a busy Summer season does not explain it all ! Maybe he is a little less rude with his regulars, but outsiders don 't seem to be welcome. My English friend was shocked and myself as a French citizen, totally ashamed ! What an image to give to foreigners visiting our beautiful country ! Fortunately for us, a few miles further down our road, in Marsolan (small village with gorgeous architecture btw , we found a very good café-crème, served by a friendly smiling lady ! It saved our morning !
