Le Glacier sur Montbrison

05/10/2026: We only had a few hours to explore downtown Saint-Claude, and we were really craving a Jura fondue. Unfortunately, many restaurants were closed, and it was already almost 2:00 PM. On the phone, a warm voice told us: "Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you." When we arrived at Le Petit Machon, a very charming, smiling, and welcoming woman served us fresh water and put us at ease about arriving so late to enjoy a specialty that requires time to appreciate. The fondue was served relatively quickly. It was tempting and appetizing... The charcuterie was plentiful and beautifully presented. It was an absolute delight. Definitely worth trying. Above all, it's excellent value for money. Furthermore, the owner, always available and friendly, gave us a summary of the most important sights to see and admire in Saint-Claude in such a short time. This was truly very helpful. It wasn't just a simple lunch; it was an encounter, a discovery, a wonderful memory... We'll definitely go back if we return to Saint Claude.
