Les meilleurs restaurants

09/06/2026: I sometimes bring colleagues here for a drink and a chat in a more personal setting. There's no debate about the music because that's not the point, but tonight, I don't know who put the music on, but it was just perfect for me: great modern soul/R&B in the background, it was just perfect. Even though it wasn't intentional, a huge thank you, because it made my time even better, the atmosphere even more welcoming than usual 😝 well done team!

08/06/2026: Affordable, quick, reasonable portions, and good too. The daily specials are nice. Also great for just having a drink with friends or colleagues.

02/05/2026: My wife has an amazing memory. Checking my records, we had first stayed here in 1981 and then again in 1986. Some things such as the old farm implements she said had not changed. I had no recollection, but when I checked I had a contact noted with the old less pompous address – lieu dit rather than General de Gaulle. Finding the motel and restaurant was not a problem as it was well signposted off the main road into Macon. The lane past ranks of Tesla chargers was not prepossessing. However, after that the entrance to the desk in the old building was obvious. Thence to the motel part. Not an architectural 1970s splendour but very practical. Odd. Instead of parking next to the units the French park a distance away on the other side of the road. The rooms are perfectly serviceable in a functional way. Their pleasure is that there is a terrace to each and that looks straight onto the Soane river flowing past in it’s limpid way. A few metres distant and with nothing except nature and a footpath in in-between. On a beautiful sunny day little could be more atmospheric. If there is a material downside to the rooms and their age it is the bath. Perhaps when built that was thought to be a necessity. Now a short tub which is extremely, and I mean extremely, hard to get in and out of would be much better replaced with a shower. Perhaps not an over costly renovation and one which would save the owners money in the long run. Otherwise, it might be 2* but it is all more than perfectly adequate. Especially with the view. To which add a very decent continental breakfast. Not included in the reasonable room rate. What is not 2* is the restaurant. It is exceptionally good. There may not be massive choice, but that is irrelevant. What is on offer was delicious. Both the food and the wine are also sensibly priced. That you are a captive audience is not exploited. One can not only eat indoors but also on the terrace overlooking the fields and the river. OK, if you are picky the proximity of the A6 does create a bit of background noise. No doubt wind direction dependent. However, the proximity to the A6/A40 junction is an added convenience. We loved it. This time unlikely to wait another 40 years to return.

17/05/2026: It's a shame the restaurant is closed, even though the website's opening hours indicate it's open until 2pm on Sundays…

13/05/2026: Homemade products, delicious family cooking, very, very good value for money.

01/05/2026: After sightseeing, we stopped at the restaurant and were the first to arrive. We were served last, and the meat we ordered was soggy, and the desserts were reserved for regulars…! If you're a tourist or just passing through, definitely avoid this place.

20/01/2026: The buffet for starters and main courses was excellent and tasty. Very good establishment.

15/04/2026: Super tasty and inexpensive sushi

19/03/2026: Best sushi in Paris! Always fresh , always tasty and quick service, clean and nice atmosphere!! Really recommend! The prices are reasonable as well

01/06/2026: Flowers, beautifully illuminated by lamps, graced a gently curved space with understated white walls and a few turquoise accents above the bar, perfectly complementing the wooden tables. I had a delicious trout with plenty of fresh herbs. My wife thought it needed more lemon, but I don't like lemon, and I've never understood this whole thing about always having lemon with fish: I find it overpowers all the other flavors, it makes no sense. Enough with the lemon! Thank you to the chef for not adding any; the trout was absolutely perfect as it was. The service and welcome were excellent.

27/05/2026: Unfortunately the restaurant is not open for food during the hours indicated on Google. I arrived just after 3pm and food options were a cookie and drink. Staff were nice, cookie was fine, but suggest listing is updated.
