Patisserie Micheline et Paulette
Bordeaux
20/08/2026: I bought a baguette today, and it was day-old bread; I don't recommend it.
01/08/2026: Always a pleasure to sip a coffee at Paul's.

El Bodegon
Bordeaux
17/09/2026: A rather disappointing experience. We waited in a long queue only to be greeted very rudely by the person taking our orders. I can understand that service can be difficult to manage when it's busy, but that's no excuse for speaking to customers in an aggressive tone. A little more calm and respect would have really made a difference. It's a shame, because the place could be nice.
16/09/2026: The service was appalling. I was told to hurry up and choose my order after only five seconds, under the pretext of a so-called rush, even though there weren't many people waiting. The same thing happened to my friends. I believe that if you can't even provide decent table service, you shouldn't complain about the minimal number of customers, especially in the Victoire district.

Couleur café
Bordeaux
23/08/2026: Catastrophic: a 3-hour wait for two dishes ordered for two people. The gizzard salad had burnt gizzards, the risotto was not cooked rice at all, but definitely not cooked like risotto, with tons of freeze-dried parsley and burnt calamari. The pasta carbonara had burnt bacon and the fruit salad was from a can—fantastic. The waiter apologized for the wait, but frankly, that's not enough!
Avoid at all costs.
14/08/2026: A very disappointing experience — a warning.
We waited an hour between ordering and the arrival of our food. After 50 minutes, we went to ask about our order. We requested that the appetizers and main courses be served at the same time.
The result: the main courses arrived before the appetizers, which were cold, and only 4 out of 6 main courses were served initially.
Regarding the dishes:
- the duck, ordered medium-rare, arrived completely charred;
- the second duck, sent back to the kitchen, was still overcooked (see photo);
- the beef, ordered rare, was not at all rare (see photo);
- the pasta carbonara with grilled bacon clearly appeared to have been reheated (see photo);
- the steak tartare was not minced/ground, but contained whole pieces of meat, which was absolutely not what we expected.
In the end, we literally didn't eat anything, and the establishment offered us the entire meal for free, which we acknowledge and appreciate.
However, we are sharing this review primarily as a precaution for anyone considering dining there, as the accumulation of problems, both with the service and the cooking and preparation of the food, was truly disappointing.
We sincerely hope these issues will be addressed.
NB: The restrooms should also be cleaned.

Boulangerie le pain de la renaissance
Bordeaux
18/08/2026: The baguette tastes really good! Fresh and nice and crispy. Highly recommended!
13/08/2026: Bakery taken over by the son of the owner of the Moissac bakery.
The baguette is okay, nothing special. However, the custard tart was awful; it must have been two days old or even last week. The pastry was tasteless and bland, with no crispness and completely soggy. Disgusting.

Hippopotamus
Bordeaux
06/09/2026: Ordered the chateaubriand. They couldn’t do medium rare, so ordered rare. Got it served well done. Without any decent searing for some reason. Sent it back and they obviously only placed it under some heater as it was the same piece of meat, only now slightly more well done. Sent it back again and then got it on the verge of raw. Ate some and spent the next two nights on the toilet..
29/08/2026: What a disappointment! We used to stop at this restaurant every year. We come from Spain, it's our annual stop... We were treated like dogs... they rushed us, asking if we had a reservation. I politely told her no, the restaurant was half empty... She told us there was a 20 to 40 minute wait, maybe more. It was 7:45 pm... Basically, she made it clear there was no point in waiting... Since the change of management, it's gotten worse.

The Central Pub Gambetta
Bordeaux
22/09/2026: Terrible! Extremely disappointed. The service is at the counter, not even a hello. Avoid at all costs!
21/09/2026: Everyone going to a concert at the auditorium passes through here before the show. Except now you have to order at the bar, which means queuing up, and depending on the time, it's more or less crowded. The price of a pint hasn't gone down, so for the same price as before, you're basically serving yourself because they don't serve on the terrace anymore. I'm switching places!

L'Ombriere
Bordeaux
28/08/2026: The waiter was rude. We had come to have a good time with friends, but three out of eight of us, unable to pay for drinks, were forced to leave. Apparently, it was the bar's rule. I find this quite unfortunate, given that we had come to have several drinks; we'd like to remind everyone that it's supposed to be a pleasant experience. I should also point out that the bar was empty and not even at peak time, which was 5:30 PM. The atmosphere wasn't exactly jovial either.
27/08/2026: The location is great and the seating area is really pleasant. The salad was good overall.
Unfortunately, the first part of the service was quite frustrating. The place was full and there was only one server taking care of all the tables, so I completely understand that she was overworked and doing her best. When she eventually spoke to me, she was actually very nice.
That said, when we first sat down, the menu was thrown onto our table, which I don’t think was appropriate. I also wasn’t able to order my food at the same time as my drinks, so I ended up waiting to place my food order before even drinking my drink, which was frustrating. The service was quite slow, although again, I understand that she was alone during a very busy time.
Overall, the food and location were good, but the beginning of the experience and the organization of the service could have been better.

Le Grand Cafe
Bordeaux
19/09/2026: Lovely terrace right in the center. Aude is an attentive and efficient waitress with a nice, lighthearted sense of humor. The food is decent.
18/09/2026: Very pleasant, thank you to the waitress for her kindness and smile, and she even thought of bringing Yelena a bowl of water.

Le Dijeaux
Bordeaux
18/08/2026: They're ripping off customers and not listing the coffees on the menu because the staff wants tips. I've given all the information to the URSSAF (French social security agency); I'm sure they'll laugh to see such rude and unclean waiters who dare to tip themselves without your permission or even telling you, and who change drink prices as they please. Have a good day, and steer clear.
19/07/2026: I actually ate very little and was only there for a short time, but the service was quite bad and what I did eat, which was tea and bread, wasn't very good.

Cafe Brasserie de Luxe Le Terminus
Bordeaux
20/08/2026: Passing through the area for one night, we stopped for a simple coffee in the evening and received a very warm welcome.
We returned the next morning for breakfast and were very well served; we highly recommend this place.
20/08/2026: The reason doesn't make me want to stop there today. I asked if it was open, didn't even say hello or anything, and the guy curtly replied, "No, chill out, buddy." I won't be back anytime soon. My visit was on August 20, 2026, at 7:30 AM. Yet I often stop there, and the waitress is usually very nice and smiling.

Grand Bar Castan
Bordeaux
06/09/2026: They don't accept small change (two 5-cent coins), but the waitress took it directly from my tip without asking me 🥲
03/09/2026: Beautiful and friendly place…but a major problem with the toilets, which are often dirty or clogged! When you have guests, you make sure the toilets are clean: it's the bare minimum.

Levis
Bordeaux
19/08/2026: I don't usually leave negative reviews...
Seriously, avoid this place...
The welcome is icy and unpleasant...
A beer during Happy Hour... €7.00... and the service is appalling... not many customers either...
I won't be back and I don't recommend it...
29/06/2026: The tobacconist's rudeness is unbelievable. You arrive, say "Good morning, Madam," and get no response. You leave saying "Thank you, goodbye," and she doesn't even look up. In short, it's convenient, but that's all.
