Les meilleurs restaurants en Nievre

18/07/2026: One of the best restaurants in the area. The bistronomic cuisine is excellent and truly original; the chef is incredible! And that's true from appetizer to dessert. Superb wine list with a wide selection. Top-notch service and welcome. If you haven't been yet, this is the place to go, whatever the season. Oh yes, I almost forgot, the menu is updated regularly, and you wonder where the chef gets all his inspiration. Finally, unbeatable value for money.

27/06/2026: The decor is nice, with bottles and monkeys. The menu is enticing, with Italian touches. The food is delicious, and we generously finished each plate. A minor drawback is the presentation and the plates themselves; we eat with our eyes too 😜

31/07/2026: A charming café. A captivating interior adorned with historical objects. We sat on the terrace because of the heat. We had a coffee and a glass of wine. Despite its proximity to the street and the train station, it's a very calm and peaceful place. We had a wonderful time.

26/07/2026: A lovely discovery this July! The waitress was very friendly, and the service was quick. And the food was perfect: well-cooked, seasoned, and in more than generous portions. With the set menu (starter, main course, dessert), we left completely satisfied 😉 All this at a very reasonable price. Thank you!

14/07/2026: A huge thank you to the Chef and the entire team at La Fontaine Cavalier. Your exceptional service, warm welcome, culinary expertise, availability, and above all, your genuine desire to please, transformed our family celebration on July 12, 2026, into a truly joyful event shared by all our guests, in a truly delightful setting. The dishes and wines you selected were as pleasing to the eye as they were to the palate. Your professionalism deserves to be praised.

12/07/2026: Perfect, a very good restaurant in the countryside. Good products!

23/12/2025: It's best to be warned beforehand: If you start pulling out a few small coins (1, 2, or 5 cents) to make up the change for the coffee, you'll get yelled at before you've even finished counting the change 🤣🤣 The gentleman "doesn't want these small coins, he doesn't have time to deal with them." It's unheard of!

22/10/2025: Honestly, I don't understand how anyone can give this restaurant 1 star when everything is perfect, whether it's the welcome, the quality of the products, the way it's cooked, the price. I would love to have a restaurant this good near my home.

01/07/2026: The caterer we chose for our wedding perfectly met our expectations; both the cocktail hour and the meal were impeccable, and the service, provided by a top-notch team, was highly professional. Thank you for contributing to the success of our event.

26/06/2026: Very welcoming and friendly staff and delicious food.

22/05/2026: We hadn't made a reservation, didn't know it was necessary, and walked in at 7:00 PM. It was completely full, but the very friendly owner went to see if he could still arrange something. And luckily, he still had a high table with bar stools at the back of the restaurant. We had an incredibly delicious meal; the nems (spring rolls); I have never had them this good! The steak tartar and the beef stew; our main courses were delicious, and the tiramisu too! We really had a great meal for a low price; super! Afterwards, we spoke briefly with the owner, who started this restaurant 15 years ago at the age of 22. It is simply always full, and I understand why. We said goodbye with a handshake and kisses for my wife! Service a 10, atmosphere a 10, and truly, the food a solid 10! 21-5-2026: back at the Mec in shorts! We sat outside nicely; the street was closed to traffic, and a large terrace had been set up where you could sit comfortably. What lovely, hospitable service this restaurant has. You feel welcome and are served with great pleasure. I can be brief about the food there: amazing! Be sure to finish the meal with their baba because it is superb. We will definitely be back in October; I am already looking forward to it…

18/05/2026: We were a small group of Belgians who came to race at Magny-Cours without any particular expectations. We ended up here following a recommendation, and what a surprise! Thank you, Tonton, for your hospitality and the hard work of the whole team! See you next year at the latest!

19/07/2026: A great experience: no false notes. The meal was excellent, well prepared and beautifully presented, with discreet and well-paced service. A great experience. Thank you.

09/07/2026: Very noisy in the dining rooms! Exhausting in the heat (air conditioning barely working). Terrace closed at lunchtime! Staff too stiff...no genuine smiles. Good food. Disappointed.

05/07/2026: Charming inn, very warm welcome, good quality food, an address to remember

25/06/2026: This restaurant is worth a visit; we went there by chance, we ate very well and the couple is very friendly. I recommend it; you won't be disappointed. We had a very good time.

02/07/2026: Intrigued by the number of positive reviews, I was able to verify that they were true. We are delighted with this discovery and thank everyone who contributed to it.

18/06/2026: A thousand thanks. Never disappointed by the service, Tony's cooking, or the setting. In short, keep delighting our taste buds 😉 the beef stew with cider is to die for 🤪

20/06/2026: A wonderful discovery, yet this gem has been around for 16 years already. It's delicious, fresh, and served with warmth and professionalism: thank you!

06/06/2026: Really good food and nice atmosphere

11/05/2026: What can I say? Best dining experience in the last five years... Plus, the bread is exceptional and you can order it

22/12/2025: A feast of refined, delicate, and creative flavors, presented with rare aesthetic appeal. A truly wonderful experience. Thank you for your delightful service; we had a marvelous time at your table!

26/07/2026: Very warm welcome. Generously topped pizzas.

28/06/2026: We're parked at the campervan site and ordered two pizzas. They're delicious, and the price is unbeatable! I love the anchovy pizza; usually I only get three or four, but this time I was spoiled rotten—I got more than ten! We highly recommend it! Thank you!

01/06/2026: We stumble on this restaurant by accident on a walking tour of Nevers and a decision to avoid the busier roads. Nice choice of vegetarian food, beautifully cooked and very tasty. The decor is very tasteful and the staff absolutely lovely.

29/05/2026: A wonderful discovery. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

21/07/2026: The food was excellent, the staff were welcoming, everything was perfect.

20/07/2026: We received a warm welcome in a typical setting. There was relatively little wait despite the restaurant being quite busy. We were satisfied with the food but not with the price, which was about 30 percent higher. This was especially true of the "crapiaud à l'epoisse" (19.5€), which was a "thick" crepe with three portions of Epoisse cheese, a lettuce leaf, and a third of a tomato. It should have come with a proper, large salad or been priced closer to €12 to be in line with our other reference prices. Dishes served with unlimited potato gratin were, in fact, better value for money. If we disregard the high prices, we were very happy with our evening. Thank you!

29/01/2026: Great hotel and restaurant. I had a lovely time, the decor was top-notch.

22/01/2026: Fourth visit, and while they've changed the menu, everything else has changed too, and not for the better. Order a charcuterie item from the menu, and you get three slices of andouille sausage and three of salami. The sauerkraut on the menu is a disaster: cabbage with bacon, two sausages, and one potato (not very regional at all). As for the bread on the menu, it's simply leftover unfinished rolls from the regular menu. And the restrooms at the end of service are as clean as the dining room.
