Excellent trout today. Excellent dessert and coffee. A definite 5/5!

Sensational experience in August 2022 for our cycling tour group of 12 riders and 5 staff - a very warm welcome despite no reservation and amazing food and service. Nothing was too difficult and excellent value. Thank you so much.

Je recommande, les plats sont excellents et bien préparé. De plus le restaurant est bien placé, dans une rue où peut se voiture passe donc on est assez tranquille.

Accueil au top et repas excellent. Nous avons mangé le 05.02.2022, la dame qui nous a servie est très aimable et ne pense qu'à votre bien être. Notre chienne a eu droit à sa gamelle d'eau, sans que nous la demandions. Le repas était excellent (voir photos) , et le café gourmand copieux. Je recommande sans réserve, vous passerez un agréable moment.

Central square. Warm welcome. Good menu choice; Great quality food, beautifully cooked. Attentive service. Jazz evenings in the summer. V good value.
