Auberge de la Route d'Or sur Candes-Saint-Martin

A must-visit in the heart of Candes-Saint-Martin! A truly charming spot, nestled between the Loire and Vienne rivers, at the foot of the village's magnificent collegiate church. It's easy to see why this stop on the Camino de Santiago has such a renowned reputation. In the kitchen, Chef Paloma is simply exceptional. Her creativity and precision are evident in every dish, showcasing local produce, and everything is homemade! Truly vibrant and heartfelt cuisine. In the dining room, Caroline and Ludovic make a delightful duo: welcoming, smiling, polite, and exceptionally kind. They give this place a warm atmosphere; you immediately feel at ease. A place not to be missed if you're in the area; you'll leave wanting to return very soon!

A first visit with friends – a very unique place, delicious food, and lovely staff! We returned for a birthday celebration with a much older group. Impeccable service and a delicious meal!!! Go without hesitation if you appreciate good food and drinks featuring local and organic products!

A truly wonderful discovery! The trout starter was simply exceptional: delicate, flavorful, and perfectly executed. You can taste the care that went into every detail. The welcome was warm, the service attentive, and the atmosphere very pleasant. A huge congratulations to the chef and her assistant, who make a truly passionate duo. Their talent and expertise shine through in every dish. An address I recommend without the slightest hesitation!

You won't find an experience like L’Auberge anywhere else in France. Ludo and Caro are wonderful owners who have a passion for wine and food. Everything is taken care of down to the last detail, the wines are fantastic, and I haven't even mentioned the amazing food yet! We ate here two days in a row because we loved it so much. We are definitely coming back next year. Both for the food and for Caro and Ludo ❤️

Superb place, right next to where I've always lived, beautiful location, very good food and very pleasant staff!! I highly recommend it

Exquisite cuisine, a magical setting, a friendly and dynamic team. In short, everything is there for a wonderful time. Laurent.

Exquisite and sophisticated cuisine, a carefully curated wine list, and exceptional service, with a genuine pleasure in introducing guests to local wines and products. All this at an excellent price. Highly recommended.

What a fantastic find! The food was absolutely delicious. Fresh, local, and seasonal produce with a young, creative, and refreshing take on a french cuisine. Excellent selection of natural wines from local winemakers. Combined with the magical setting, it made for a truly memorable experience. A must-try!

Delicious food, super friendly staff, and a beautiful location. Highly recommended!! Thanks for the lovely evening <3

Both in the afternoon and in the evening, two to three excellent set menus are available. We were very satisfied with the quality of the food and the wine recommendations. Unfortunately, the opening hours listed on Google and the website don't match. It's best to call ahead and make a reservation.
