Auberge du Pont-Canal

Very helpful and attentive staff. We ate a very good couscous. Good value for money with a spacious room. Ideal for a cycle route stopover on the Briare canal, I recommend.

During a weekend sojourn aboard our barge here, we enjoyed two extremely pleasant meals. Even though our French was limited, the staff went out of their way to assist. All in all, lovely food and we will return next year.

What a great find ! Superb setting near the river and canal this very unassuming restaurant serves great food in an uncomplicated way . Very friendly staff , very tolerant of our attempts at French. Modern decor . Outside seating , Ver carta

Accueil sympathique et cuisine comme a la maison . Couscous les weekends. Belle situation au bord du canal, face au port . Copieux cocktail d'avocats aux crevettes et escalope de poulet à la normande et tagliatelles (un peu trop cuites) . Parfait pour un diner au coucher du soleil sur la terrasse. Service rapide .

Un week-end Midi Cadre très sympathique avec une terrasse bord du canal et vue sur le pont. Personnel avenant et très courtois et attentif. Cuisine moyenne et un peu chère tout compte fait car portions réduites et choix limité.Pas de formule . Pour ma part je trouve les couscous intéressant si il fait froid .Mais en été je suis réservé . Manque peu de chose pour être bien .

We came here for lunch but were unimpressed: the amuse was dried-out,; the seafood in my starter tasted vinegary and looked minced-up, as if it had come out of a jar; my fish was overcooked; the Norwegian omelette looked straight out of the freezer. The view was of back gardens, with broken bikes etc. The only redeeming feature was the charming and enthusiastic waitress. Why this restaurant is in Michelin I don't know. Ver carta

First, the bad bit! We asked for a window seat overlooking the canal as we wanted to keep an eye on our boat during lunch. We got a small table in the middle of the restaurant against a wall! (We'd booked on the Thursday prior!). So a bit cheesed off at the start.Now the good bit. We had a first class Sunday lunch. All the food was to perfection. We're so pleased we went. The steak Rossini was the best bit of beef I've had in France in a long time. We had aperitifs before hand, two set menus, one at 29€ and the other at 21€, two small carafes of house wine and cheese board to die for.The staff were great, the atmosphere was good. Do book if you go, it was just about full!

We found this restaurant on Trip Advisor listed under Saint Amand Montrond, where we were staying. With a little bit of research, we realized that the restaurant was not close enough to drive to for dinner, so we decided to go for lunch. It is about an hour from Saint Amand. It is much closer to Nevers and Apremont sur Alliers.We did not feel that it was worth the drive. It was a windy day, so we were not able to sit out on the terrace with a view of the canal. The large dining room was just a big room, with no type of decoration. The food was very plain, large but not very appetizing. I think they go for quantity rather than quality. We like cheese, rather than dessert after a meal. From af...

A wine maker in Sancerre had high accolades for this nice place. We moored the barge late morning and made reservations for lunch.. After a nice cold beer on the front terrace we were seated in the cool shade of the back of the restaurant. The back terrace is a delight on a hot day. As it was mid-week we were able to get a table but be warned that you will probably need reservations if you plan to visit during the weekend. the service was friendly and the menu offered an attractive choice of dishes. The escargots were very good and I had a chance to enjoy one of my favourite dishes: steak Rossini, in this case a lovely piece of Charolais beef cooked to perfection and topped by a couple of ge...
