Les meilleurs restaurants en Ariege

07/09/2026: It was market day, and my partner and I wanted to get a smoothie and a beer. After a few minutes without anyone bothering to come and greet us, we sat down. After several more minutes without any sign of the waitress (apparently the same woman who'd already been heavily criticized in countless other reviews...), we asked her if we could have a table for a drink. This very unfriendly woman brushed us off, saying, "No, these are tables set for eating." While that's understandable in principle, her terrace was practically empty, so we didn't quite get it. Then, as if trying to find a solution, she went to get the person behind the window, complaining that we were "just here for a drink at lunchtime, it's ridiculous" (it's worth noting that many people in the surrounding restaurants were doing the same thing, which isn't surprising on market day). She then suggested we have our drinks inside, between two tables and three cardboard boxes, in the sweltering heat. We were disappointed with our first visit to Mirepoix, as it didn't at all reflect the town's warm atmosphere. Our advice: go to L'Apothicaire next door; they're welcoming, friendly, and their lemonades are fantastic! 👌

11/08/2026: During our short break in Mirepoix, which is a very beautiful town by the way, we stopped at Saveur des Couverts for lunch. The welcome was very cold, practically nonexistent. There was no air conditioning, and the pastries seemed to be suffering. The health inspectors should definitely pay this establishment a visit. There was no organization among the staff, and no customer was treated properly. I think our presence inside bothered the staff, who were already quite irritated, and I even heard a waitress hurl insults at us. In short, I advise you to avoid this place; Mirepoix deserves much better.

11/08/2026: I should clarify that I didn't actually go to this restaurant, but I ordered through Uber Eats a few days ago. I was very disappointed because, in addition to the fact that the packaging was terrible—some of the sauce had leaked to the bottom of the plastic bag and the rice was wrapped directly in aluminum foil—it wasn't quite the dish I ordered; a crucial ingredient was missing. It tasted good, but it was very disappointing, and they didn't even bother to reply to the feedback I left on the delivery app. I don't think I'll be recommending it, which is a shame since it's very close to my home.

09/08/2026: Excellent meal. Fantastic service. Thank you to the staff for the warm welcome.

07/09/2026: I stopped by this morning for a coffee. I asked the waitress for the menu to check the prices, and imagine my surprise when she rolled her eyes and sighed. So I ordered my espresso, and she laughed and mocked me, saying, "Why did you order a set menu if you just want an espresso?" I didn't know it was possible to be so unpleasant. I had to bring my own coffee to my table because she left it on a tray at the bar. The coffee was as bitter as the waitress. I don't recommend it. 🙄 LOL

02/09/2026: A bit of a wait, but also very busy on the terrace this weekend. One waiter was rather taciturn, another waitress very friendly and smiling. A very popular spot under the market hall with a view of the beautiful Foix castle. This café deserves to be more welcoming to everyone, including tourists (men, women, and children). I always feel like I'm intruding when I go there from time to time to have a drink with family or friends... There are much nicer places a little further away, in the town center...

19/10/2026: The fries were cold and he didn't have what I ordered.

18/10/2026: After a long visit, I see things aren't improving. The hamburgers and fries were cold when I ate in. The second time was the same. At the drive-thru, there are always items missing, and the click and collect service is even slower than eating in or at the drive-thru. In short, I'm forced to travel miles to eat McDonald's.

26/08/2026: Clearly we should have read the reviews! What a welcome! No menu, at least the prices are hidden! Two soft drinks and a beer for €13.50… go straight to Karibou, you'll be much better served!

24/08/2026: We had a great experience at this restaurant! The welcome was very friendly, the food was delicious, and the service was particularly fast, even outside of the summer season. We'll gladly come back!
