I dread to think what you might be served up with at a place offering Second-Hand food and drink. Here is Fr Briggs outside a Brasserie that seems to promise more fun:
In fact we ate a light breakfast at a place with a sign whose subtitle indicated a quality which suited us:

I love how it's
"Brasserie LOL"
hah! too cute :-)
I reckon the first sign would be a good candidate for 'I Spy' in Private Eye - and you might earn 10 quid.
My favourite one, some years ago, was a B&B called 'Nessun dorma'!!
What's worse is I don't even know what they were trying to convey with the name on sign number one.
Oh, that's funny, Father.
The clue to the intent of the English words of "Second Hand" in the 1st sign is the French word "Brocante" at the top.
A "brocanteur" is a dealer in second hand goods - so the premises offer second hand goods as well as refreshments.
You didn't by any chance stay at the Paris hotel with the sign saying 'please leave your values at the reception desk'?
