Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Charente

25/03/2026: Occasionally passing through La Couronne, I've tried this bakery to buy a ham, butter, and Emmental sandwich. Note: I have a lot of sandwich experience ;-) I just discovered a new sandwich concept there! In the display case, there's only a slice of ham, about 4 cm wide and 20 cm long (by sight), with pieces of butter (if you can call it butter) stuck on top and probably some cheese (Emmental?). You're asked to choose your bread (traditional, multigrain, or a third type). All the sandwiches are the same price regardless of the filling (ham, salmon, maybe rillettes, etc.): €5. When I say that I think €5 for a ham, butter, and Emmental is a bit expensive, I'm told (very politely, I should add): "That's because we use the whole baguette, and all our sandwiches are the same price." Um, we clearly have different definitions of a whole baguette. The size of my sandwich was just average. And I don't care that the salmon sandwich was also €5; I ordered a ham, butter, and Emmental... My €5 ham, butter, and Emmental was overpriced and disgusting. Absolutely disgusting! Bland, with no flavor whatsoever in either the bread (which was soggy) or the butter and tomato slices (yes, they put tomato slices in my ham, butter, and Emmental). I have rarely eaten such a bad sandwich, especially one that was expensive. I assure you, it was truly awful, not good at all! I will not be returning. Edit after the managers' response: I stand by what I said. I didn't say it wasn't fresh, but rather that it wasn't good and lacked flavor. Regarding the bread, I didn't say I didn't like it, but that the one I was given was soggy (traditional bread). Regarding the price, I must emphasize that €5 for a ham and butter sandwich with Emmental cheese is more expensive than elsewhere. For a truly good ham and butter sandwich with Emmental cheese, I recommend trying the "Point Chaud" at the Leclerc bakery in Châtellerault. It's less than €4.50, with excellent bread, delicious and generous ham, and real butter. Sincerely.

18/03/2026: I had the dish of the day for €13. Pasta with squid and chorizo, quite good.

19/04/2026: We were very well advised and welcomed, we had a very good dinner and will return with great pleasure.

12/04/2026: Very disappointed with our meal, fries cooked in ancient oil, mediocre meat served on a board accompanied by a few wilted salad leaves!

03/05/2026: Friendly staff. A tip: it's best to book in advance to be sure of getting a table. We ordered à la carte, and the portions were generous. We also had a revisited pavlova.

30/04/2026: A warm welcome, friendly atmosphere, and generous and delicious cuisine prepared by Katia – we always have a wonderful time when we stay in the Charente region. A truly excellent place to stay.

31/03/2026: Very disappointed. The welcome wasn't warm. The unlimited soup and starters were OK. The five meat dishes to choose from were appreciated, but the problem was that when we arrived early and asked for sirloin steak, we were told they were out. Then, at the till, the owner asked the chef what meat they had left, and he replied, "Silk steak." Moral of the story: a restaurant we'll forget.

12/03/2026: Nothing to complain about, we've been coming once a week for a few months and it's still just as good.

04/03/2026: Can't wait to go back. That's how I can describe my first visit to this establishment. The owners are incredibly charming and enthusiastic. I ordered the set menu without really knowing what I was going to eat... I didn't just eat, I savored. Everything was more than perfect and the portions were generous. Superb ingredients, a slightly old-fashioned style of cooking... no frills, just the desire to make the customer happy... And they succeeded; my colleague and I can't wait to return.

19/04/2026: A gift I gave to my partner. We were both pleasantly surprised by the place, the welcome, and the service we received. • The welcome was pleasant, no complaints there. • Room 6 was perfectly adequate, clean, and charmingly old-fashioned. • The meal was wonderful (we thoroughly enjoyed it; thank you to the chef!). The breakfast was also very good, with fresh, local products, which is exactly what you look for in this kind of place. • The spa was excellent; we thoroughly enjoyed the two hours we had during our stay.

19/04/2026: It's a hotel where we enjoyed ourselves from the starter to the dessert, the spa was top-notch, breakfast was top-notch, overall we are very happy.

06/10/2025: A very well-run hotel run by a charming, professional, and efficient couple. Madame welcomes and provides service with great patience, humor, and professionalism. She has a kind word for everyone, is always cheerful, and is energetic from morning to night. Both the father and son wear their chefs' hats with elegance and handle their whisks with love. The cuisine is delicious, refined, very well presented, and varied. The room is comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated. I spent two weeks there for business. The house and the restaurant are always full. Whether you're staying for a few days or just one night, don't hesitate; it's worth the detour. I'll definitely be back!

29/09/2025: Very good restaurant, friendly staff
