La Pause Gourmande sur Auxerre

17/07/2026: We loved this restaurant; the terrace, the charming staff, and the excellent food were all fantastic. A wonderful discovery!

15/07/2026: Here's a great spot in Auxerre to enjoy delicious, fresh, homemade dishes. They're a real discovery in terms of taste. Like the green gazpacho with its lemon mousse, a refreshing creation. Worth trying if it's still on the menu. We also had snails as a starter (typical in this region), followed by a casserole of andouillette sausage au gratin with Époisses cheese (a local cheese), and then beefsteak tomato carpaccio. Very fresh. For dessert, the poached nectarine was another lovely discovery. All this in a relaxing and pleasant setting, especially with the misting fans on the terrace. The service was friendly and efficient. The owner, who is also the chef, isn't afraid to leave his stove to help with service. Be careful not to go through the wrong door. Don't take the one for the brasserie next door. Make sure you go through the small gate. Otherwise, you won't be eating anything that's actually homemade. Thank you for your table.
