Walking into the centre this morning the staff setting out the tables gave a warm hello, so we decided to stop for lunch on our return. Lovely quiche nice beer and wine and wonderful service. Worth stopping if you’re passing or if you have to make a detour

Popped in for lunch on our way back from Dijon to the campsite where we were parked up. Outstanding service from Jeremy who despite the cafe being very busy managed to keep the level of service at an exceptional level. The food was excellent, with some nice twists that we never get to see at home, but are typically French. For example, warm leeks in a vinaigrette with crumbled egg topping (Poireaux en venaigrette). Highly recommended.
