Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Cantal

01/11/2025: Good crêperie. Friendly welcome. Fair prices.

01/11/2025: Friendly welcome. Attentive to customers. Delicious crepes.

13/10/2025: Unobstructed and superb view from the terrace. The welcome was satisfactory, but the contents of the plates did not match the price paid. The meal consisted of few ingredients. The bill was too salty, which made you cough when you left.

29/08/2025: Beautiful view, shame there is no restaurant in the evening

16/10/2025: I've known La Source du Mont since the mid-1990s. It was always a great pleasure to spend time at this establishment. Madame Fournier ran the business with a masterful hand; nothing was left to chance, and everything was perfect. Among other things, she was very attentive to the food. Quality products were well prepared by a top-notch chef. The three chimneys and three cocottes awarded by Logis de France were well-deserved. The business was recently taken over; I went for dinner there in mid-October; it was a disaster. The welcome, the food, the service, and the customers—everything has fallen to the lowest level. I strongly advise against it...

09/07/2025: Refusing to fill cyclists' water bottles in the blazing sun, on the pretext that it might empty the spring, a pretty mediocre excuse. You're asked to go to public restrooms where the water isn't drinkable... Disgusting.

07/07/2025: Arrived 2 hours before closing time on Sunday: no way to sit in the dining room with the panoramic views, because the waiter, and I quote, "is trying to kick everyone out to clean it up"... Perhaps there's another way of putting things? 😅 I ask the waitress (most likely new, so I won't hold it against her for the rest of it, I've been there before) for a coffee and a waffle. No bowl, no waffle, so a crepe! Everything was served very quickly, but, very strangely, they asked for my money directly. Two mistakes in the change later, I finished my 4-hour break and left with a bad feeling, which was a shame.

24/01/2026: Keep walking, only stop if you're absolutely starving. We chose a €28 set menu and a €38 one. Two small verrines were offered, without any explanation of what they were. The waitress politely placed them on the menu without any explanation. They weren't bad. The "local charcuterie" platter was an insult to the people of Cantal! Three slices of sausage, two thin slices of tasteless ham, a tiny piece of fricandeau, and a piece of head cheese with a gherkin! In the land of charcuterie, it's unacceptable to offer this at that price! And what about the minuscule flank steak and its accompanying aligot... the flank steak was practically inedible, so tough. We ordered it medium-rare, and it arrived bloody for both of us. My partner couldn't even finish it, it was so tough. We mentioned it to the waitress... no response... The aligot was absolutely tasteless; I've never eaten such a bland dish, and it was served in a tiny pan! We couldn't even finish it, it was so tasteless. Only the dessert and the prawns were acceptable. It's simply unthinkable that they can offer such dishes for €28 and €38. It's a rip-off. Never again! I paid the bill, but I'm still furious! Once again, avoid this place...

13/11/2025: Having been to the area regularly, I had never been to this restaurant. What a mistake not to have gone sooner! The food is perfect: flavorful, indulgent, and just right. The lemon sole with its mashed potatoes... to die for! The same goes for the service: discreet, quick, and efficient. And finally, the prices are more than reasonable! A flawless experience.

04/02/2026: Fast service, good food, great welcome!

04/02/2026: On my last visit, I had a choice between chicken breast and chicken breast... Fries or butternut puree... nothing more... And the noise is really too much for a working meal... The food is okay.

29/09/2025: Small country restaurant. Affordable full menu, including starter, main course, cheese, and dessert. Simple, effective, and delicious cuisine.

24/09/2025: Friendly, pleasant cuisine, good welcome

26/10/2025: Superb meal with a chef of Alsatian origins...so the meal could only be delicious. We recommend it without moderation.

19/09/2025: The couple who welcomed us were very friendly, the food was good and we were well received.

29/10/2025: We have known and frequented this establishment for several years. It was with great pleasure that we returned this October for three nights. What can I say? The room is beautifully decorated and clean, the breakfast is very good, and Simone is wonderful. I highly recommend this guesthouse, which knows how to welcome its guests. It's very well located, just a stone's throw from Chaudes-Aigues and its thermal spa, Laguiole, and La Chaldette, another spa town. Thank you very much for your hospitality, and see you soon...

22/10/2025: Very pleasant stay. We were very well received in this old hotel, the entire space (bar, kitchens, lounge, etc.) was at our disposal. The rooms are very comfortable. Ideal for small groups of hikers.

18/02/2026: Evening meal plan Sorry that in Auvergne we can't replace sweet desserts with a plate of local cheeses 🤔

01/02/2026: I'm revising my review from 7 years ago (2 stars). The service and food have improved significantly, no complaints whatsoever! Delicious at a reasonable price, so the 5 stars are well deserved...

24/01/2026: Not open, inaccurate description

09/01/2026: Efficient and quick service. Tables very close together, making conversation difficult. Salers steak cooked as requested, served with truffade and salad.

15/12/2025: While out and about, I stumbled upon this restaurant by chance, and honestly, everything was perfect. A very warm welcome, delicious food, and excellent value for money—I highly recommend it. PS: The tiramisu is to die for.

13/12/2025: Absolutely perfect. The food is excellent. It's far from expensive. The server is incredibly kind. And probably the best tiramisu I've ever had.

27/10/2025: Restaurant with a beautiful view and very well located for visiting the Château de Val

25/10/2025: Very well-located restaurant with a great view of the lake and the castle. Refined cuisine and generous portions. Fast service, pleasant and professional waiter. I recommend this restaurant, it's worth the detour.

03/02/2026: The hotel is very well located in the city centre, the welcome and service were impeccable, the room was very comfortable, and the chicken with Cantal sauce was tender and tasty :)

02/02/2026: I had already come 2 years ago, very bad memory because the drunk owner with his friends made a mess in the middle of the night... the room was under construction... there were damp patches on the ceiling of the restaurant... etc... 2 years later I am back: the same room in the same state of construction, a tap that doesn't stay on, the TV that doesn't work... bring earplugs and an eye mask if you want to sleep peacefully.

24/09/2025: Friendly staff...local and good food...

04/09/2025: Hotel, restaurant and great services for a pleasant stay
