We stopped for lunch (made a reservation) and spent a few wonderful hours in the garden eating delicious food and creating happy memories. There are 3 price choices for the set menu and then a la carte items. The prices are a little higher than other restaurants along the canal de garonne but the quality of the food is as well. Fresh and innovative choices beautifully presented. Everything we ordered was a hit- goat cheese and salmon, duck, and crudités vegetables, followed by lamb shank, prawns and duck breast. Desserts included local prunes stewed in a wine-armagnac sauce and meringue/Chantilly/coffee armagnac cream. Needless to say it was very hard to choose. My descriptions don’t do the food justice. Check out their pictures and menu online. We hope one day to come again.

“A most comfortable stay...”

Another pleasant overnight on our trip down the Canal du Garonne. Room comfortable, although prone to gravel being brought in from the forecourt (!) Nice pool - a welcome sight after a long, hot day on the bikes. Restaurant a little fussy, but the food was excellent. Our slumbers were interrupted b… more

Another pleasant overnight on our trip down the Canal du Garonne. Room comfortable, although prone to gravel being brought in from the forecourt (!) Nice pool - a welcome sight after a long, hot day on the bikes. Restaurant a little fussy, but the food was excellent. Our slumbers were interrupted by a cat jumping in to our room through the open window, but other than that, we emerged well rested. Nice breakfast, can't really go wrong here.

“Sign of a good restaurant”

...can often be how they deal with things that go wrong. We had dinner here. My spinach and egg starter was masterful.

...can often be how they deal with things that go wrong. We had dinner here. My spinach and egg starter was masterful. However the duck, which I ordered medium was actually so over cooked it was black on the underside. When I pointed this out to the waitress she attempted to tell me that this was the skin and was supposed to be like that. I then queried why the knife provided could not cut through it and that I could not eat it. She grudgingly removed it. However, the lady running front of house did come and apologise and my dish was returned, minus the garnishes together with a sharp knife. So, a curate's egg, good in parts. The wine list was good, the decor and ambience fine, if a little dark. Would I return? Probably not.
