L'Auberge de Brothelande

Six of us went for Sunday lunch and decided to splash out on the a la carte. Delicious starters of Thai prawns, soup and various followed by lemon sole, smoked pave de saumon and an excellent smoked rib of beef. Everyone was delighted. The service is not quick, but the pause allowed us to recuperate from the previous course and attack the new one with gusto. There is a mediocre wine list, but perfectly satisfactory to complement our order. It 's a team of two people, he does the cooking and she serves. They really do work very hard indeed. We did not hold back on anything and at 30 Euros a head, well worth it. Do go.

Went there for a lunch and had the workers' menu which is the only option available at lunchtime. The cost of this menu is £12 and you get a starter, a main, cheeseboard, pudding, coffee and 1/2 bottle of either red wine or cider each. Wow! This is the best value for money restaurant in the vicinity. The food was delicious, homemade and different. There was plenty in the plate. The service was attentive although a smile was a bit missing at times. There are two restaurant room, one which is nicer than the other one as it has a fireplace! Would I go there again? Yes, definitely!

Une salle agréable, un service souriant, même un peu trop, une cuisine élaborée mais qui pêche par des détails (ex : la noix de coco sur le carpaccio d'ananas tue le gout de l'ananas ; la moutarde dans la galette viroise emporte avec elle tous les gouts). Pour autant, le repas est d'une qualité au dessus de la moyenne et la facture tout à fait correcte. Je lui donnerai une seconde chance à l'occasion. (attention, une petite erreur de 0,5 sur la note).

Found this great place by chance. It was almost full at lunchtime in January and that tells me everything I need to know. Wonderful menu for 11 Euros of starter. I had Fish Terrine, my Son had Gesier (duck gizzards) we both had the Gammon steak with a demi glace sauce and home made Frites, cheeseboard, puds, wine, coffee. I'm moving to the vicinity soon and this will be my local eatery.

Always a sign of good food when vans parked outside at lunchtime, and indeed it was. Choice of two dishes for each course, fresh cooked and plentiful portions. Bottle of cider, wine and water on each table. Log fire lit, traditional, cosy and simple decor. We look forward to return visits.
