David Goward: Not strictly true as they don\'t \"bake\" but near enough in this context, I feel. Following your comment: you\'re right, it\'s where the campers get their bread, croissants and stuff.

hot snack outlet


Explanation:
Hot-dog/Sausage stand, mulled wine bar, etc. What the Germans would call "heisse Imbiss", I guess.

Alternatively (but I doubt it, in context), it could be a WiFi hot spot.

disagree  David Goward: I think this is unlikely as there's a "Restauration rapide/snack" in the list just above "Point chaud".
