“ Great food, great people, great service. Definitely recommend. ”
“ Had just a burger, but it was a very good burger. This review is for the 5 star staff. They were super friendly and tried very hard to use English due to my sad lack of French. Just one more example as to how kind French people are. ”
“ Simply amazing! From the real simple and tasty french food to the ambiance of the place to the variety of choices! Buffet bar offer tasty and plentiful selection of salads along with amazing cheese platters. The main meal is tasty and desserts are outstanding. The best restaurant we visited in France. ”
“ Just like one of the good old 'Les Routiers', complete with a dozen or more big artics in the car park. 4 courses plus wine for 14.50. Not fancy food, but done well and generous portions. Mousse au chocolat and creme puddings were outstanding. The owner and truck drivers near us were great fun. ”
“ Lunch here was a great decision! The staff were lovely, & helpful (to an English speaking couple), & the value for money was great! Food selection was fantastic, & we only wish this kind of meal deal was a thing in Australia! Reccommend before or after your visit to Château de Chenonceau, or simply on your way through to your next destination. ”
