Le Bis sur Saint-Emilion

06/04/2026: We stopped for lunch and found a seat outside, sampled a selection of cheeses, and then had roast ham and grilled beef. To finish, we had an almond cake. Everything was delicious. Of course, we also really enjoyed the wine. Service was friendly and fast.

24/03/2026: St Emilion 25th October Le Medieval Restaurant We both travelled by train from Bordeaux to St Emilion for a day trip. The town is approximately 20-30 minutes from the station by foot up a gentle gradient, passing vineyards enroute. We wandered around the town, which is beautiful, had a glass of Bordeaux opposite the medieval Church before wandering back down with the intention of grabbing some lunch before heading towards the train station. We sat outside initially as - even for the end of October - the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day but moved inside when a threatening rainstorm delivered on its promise. The food was great as was the service and – as always – the wine was excellent and reasonably priced, given that it is undoubtedly a tourist destination. Probably mobbed in holiday season but this was still had a number of locals dining out.
