What customers say?

“ We have had lunch here quite a few times and come away feeling well-fed and at one with the world. Their unlimited garlic soup warms the cockles.. but don't be greedy; there are three more courses to come! Second course, interesting cold meats and salad. Main course guinea-fowl cooked in raisins and finally, fresh fruit or a tart. Excellent service and a professional approach to running an auberge. ”

“ A real gem! A restaurant like this is the kind you wish you could find more often: impeccable and quick service, delicious, homemade traditional cuisine, a friendly family-run establishment in a beautiful green setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal from start to finish and had a wonderful time. And the price is fantastic: €18 for the adult menu (which was more than generous) and €10 for the children's menu. We highly recommend it! ”
