Recommended Restaurants in the Aquitaine

At French Liaison we have learnt that recommendation is the best option when choosing some where to eat. There are those places that are excellent value for money and those that are for special occasions. There are places that are special for the ambiance, for the view and those just for the food only. Therefore, what we would like to do on this page is to invite visitors to the French Liaison website, to e-mail us with their favorite Restaurant or Cafe. We would also like feedback from people who visit recommended restaurants. We are limiting it to Departments 24,47 & 33 in the Aquitaine region at the moment, and just want to see if people are interested. Below we have listed a few Restaurants recommended by people we know to get started. These vary considerably in style and may not be to everyone's taste. Therefore it is important when recommending restaurants to give as much information as possible, the aim of this site is to look mainly at Restaurants and Cafe's that offer good value for money Menu's between 9.00€ and 29.00€ mainly looking at those that can offer an all inclusive meal between 9.50€ and 20.00€.

Here are some tips when eating out in France

For those that eat out regularly they will probably be aware of this. A lot of the Restaurants in the price range we are looking at will have an 'A La Carte' menu where you can choose individual dishes, usually the best value for money is the fixed menu which will have a range of prices and will usually include a dish of the day ""Plate de Jour". The fixed Menu will usually include a 3,4 or 5 course meal many also include Wine and Coffee all include Bread and a Jug of Water.

Meal times in France in particular rural areas are as follows: Lunch is usually 12/12.30 to 1.30pm if you arrive after 1pm and you have not booked they will often refuse to serve, they do not have second sittings in most places so if they are full that is it, so it is best to book. (Large Towns may be different) Lunch times Monday to Friday you can often get excellent value for money as the target Restaurants that this site is concentrating on specialize in providing meals for the workers, you will often see all the white Vans and Lorries out side do not be put off by this as they will be quite happy to serve you as well. Evenings you will often get the same Menu that was offered at Lunch time also be careful as some of these Restaurants are not open on a Weekend.

Sunday Lunch is usually a special Meal and can be more expensive so ask the price of the Menu in advance so there are no surprises.
