La brasserie historique de l'abbaye du Cateau sur Le Cateau-Cambresis

What a wonderful discovery! We had a fantastic time at Brasserie Vivat. From the appetizer to the dessert, everything was truly delicious: the bone marrow, the salmon, and then the two hanger steaks, cooked exactly as requested, accompanied by excellent sauces—with a special mention for the Maroilles sauce! The gourmet coffee to finish, the pleasant service, and even a little something extra to end on a high note… Everything was perfect for a wonderful evening. A place we'll definitely remember and return to. Well done to the whole team!

A pleasant meal in the heart of a brasserie offering delicious local dishes. A perfect choice before or after visiting the Matisse Museum.

Beautiful photos that make you want to go, but a little disappointed with the place, which could use a refresh. Not all the beers were available...beers served without a head, and the food was average. A shame, because the location is magnificent.

Great atmosphere and an exceptional, well-hidden location

I highly recommend the brewery tour; the guide was fantastic. Bonus: the choice of a small glass of beer at the end of the tour ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And the meal afterwards was perfect! Top-notch service, great beer, and a wonderful setting.

I've already had two meals at Brasserie VIVAT and it's always a delight! The menu is varied, the service is very pleasant, and the large, quiet terrace with its outdoor bar is a real bonus. Special mention goes to the one-hour brewery tour (at 6:30 pm), which I highly recommend. It was fascinating, informative, and very interactive. A huge thank you to our guide for this wonderful experience!

Very disappointed, the bone marrow starter was undercooked, the service was very slow, in short, I do not recommend this establishment.

More than average. The starter was served before the champagne glasses, which we had to ask for. The meal was okay. For dessert, we could still hear the coffee we never got... The restaurant was incredibly noisy. We won't be back if we have to ask for things every few minutes; it's exhausting.

A lovely place for a good meal with friendly service 🌸

The Vivat restaurant and shop are worth a visit if you're in the area, for their selection of dishes and local products. Guided brewery tours must be booked at least 48 hours in advance.
