The restaurant is not too large, perhaps catering for about 50, so it could become busy, but on the night we visited there were three couples and a party of four, all ably served from the hostess alone. The food on offer was locally sourced and cooked with both care and panache and served with accompaniments that were decorative and both tasty and fulfilling. The wine list was not large but did cover for anything that was offered on the menu's or carte and at very reasonable prices.One good offer was made to us, as one was driving the wine was re-corked without question to be finished in the luxury of our tent.I have no problem in highly recommending this restaurant. which as an aside, also offers a few rooms, so next time we will most probably stay over (and finish the wine with more style).

The welcome was muted but the service was obliging and efficient - almost fast for this part of rural France, probably due to the fact that there was only a set meal. The room was clean and well maintained and well frequented by people who had obviously come to enjoy good country cooking. It is always a bonus when the chef bakes his own bread for the guests. It was also nice to have fresh cutlery with every course. It is just a pity that the chef did not appear in person to ask if everything was OK. Forecourt parking is limited but not far away are many parking possibilities. There was no artistic bill at the end, just good value.

I turned up at the restaurant along with my three guests only to find the place closed. It was too late to find an alternative restaurant and therefore our whole evening was completely ruined. Why was I allowed to book a table when the place was clearly not going to be open? This is a terrible way to behave and I will never bother trying to book a table here again.I will also be telling anyone and everyone never to bother with this place.
