The inside is nothing short of magnificent; large airy dining rooms, recently very tastefully refurbished....The menu was varied and included a dish of the day which I regretted not ordering; a very generous portion of mashed potato, sausages and gravy which looked superb.

I usually try to eat in the bar or terrace as...it is situated in one of Gueret 's busiest plazas. You can also eat in the wonderful brasserie restaurant which offers a staggering range of traditional brasserie dishes as well as more modern fare such as the Mountain Burger (tip you really need to be very hungry ! The staff are exceptionally pleasant and the bill pleasantly small. How do they do it ? It is packed out on Market Day on Thursday so do book in advance or arrive on the dot of midday to get a table. .

Reasonable food at reasonable prices and friendly service. Nice, grand setting of the restaurant a little incongruous with the bar at the entrance. read more Reasonable food at reasonable prices and friendly service.
