Trouvé also has a small café in the back. It’s nothing fancy but I had a nice sandwich there the other day. Image and caption: 2Summers

Trouvé Vintage Merchants & Coffee is at the end of the famous Long Road antique strip in Bergbron, and one of the more high-end stops, to be honest. What makes Trouvé stand out on the strip is its wider range of merchandise and the little coffee shop at the back if you feel like a refreshment or sandwich.

The family-owned business boasts a stylish collection of lovingly curated furniture and décor items from vintage, industrial, painted pieces to farmhouse and repurposed items.

The store also stocks Annie Sloan Chalk paint products, and there are workshops and custom painting sessions available now and then.
