AKWA Catering
Catering: flavors and friendliness by the water
Satisfy your taste buds with our dining options offered by L’ÉPICENTRE COFFEE SHOP. Before, during, or after a cruise or an activity provided by AKWA, come discover our 100% vegetarian and local menu.
On the boat, make your choice: enjoy our delicious picnic baskets while cruising or bring whatever you like for a tailored experience.
PLEASE NOTE: Picnic baskets and/or plancha baskets must be reserved at least 24 hours before your cruise day. We do not take on-site reservations, everything is freshly prepared and made to order, so it’s essential to anticipate your orders.
On the dock, savor our delicious cheese and vegetable boards... (on-site orders only for dockside dining).
Our catering options: flavors and friendliness
A gourmet cruise
Try our vegetarian picnic baskets and embark on a culinary adventure along the water. A friendly experience perfect for groups of up to 10 people. Our BBQ boats provide a grill — you can bring your own ingredients and prepare them on our electric boats!
A gourmet break at the water's edge
On our dock, enjoy our dining area with a delicious 100% vegetarian menu featuring fresh, local, and seasonal products. From decadent salads to cheese and veggie boards, there's something for every taste. Settle into our comfortable spaces and savor your meal while enjoying a breathtaking view of the canal.
Drinks and refreshments: a unique non-alcoholic menu
With our partner, Le Paon qui boit, the first alcohol-free cellar in France, we offer you a wide range of refined, alcohol-free beverages. A complete gastronomic experience, without compromising on taste!
And of course, if you'd like to bring your own drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), you're free to do so. Just a small reminder for everyone: drinking alcohol while operating a boat is strictly prohibited.*
