Côté Parc sur Saint-Etienne

11/03/2026: I discovered this place quite by chance, and it was wonderful. Arriving early meant we had no problem getting a table. The owner is very friendly, always smiling, and helpful! The place has a real sense of ownership, with walls steeped in history, evident in photos and newspaper clippings. The food is simple yet generous and truly delicious. A €16 set menu with a starter, main course, and dessert is unheard of these days! In short, I had a great meal, chatted a bit with the owner, and had a lovely time. 🙂

29/12/2025: It's not a gourmet restaurant, it's a canteen. But what a canteen! The welcome is exceptionally warm. Louise and her husband, with over 60 years of experience, embody the very soul of this place. It's a cult spot, a must-visit, where you can eat cheaply and the homemade fries are a real treat. It's a Saint-Étienne institution. 🫶🏻 Here, you don't come for the decor, but for the authenticity, the simplicity, and the human touch. A canteen for those who don't have much, but who want to eat and be well received. A place full of soul, profoundly welcoming. If you're looking for a little escape from this fast-paced world, I recommend going there. It's that simple.
