A delightful Saturday lunch in a beautiful location. Excellent choice of entrees and plats along with vegetarian options. Highly recommended when in Chartres. Glad they were able to fit me in on a busy day. Perhaps a reservation might guarantee a view of the river, but even without the view a very attractive dining room.

This restaurant is a real gem. The location is perfect set on the river with a stylist yet relaxing feel. The staff are welcoming and attentive and the food interesting and beautifully cooked. The menu is small but this is a positive as everything is really well thought out. Good selections of wines.

So it’s not perfect but it’s getting close … the taste of the dishes have pleased my palate and I still haven’t recall when was the last time I had this feeling. Outside view with old Chartres is so romantic especially at night, and the refurbishments done inside contribute to very charming atmosphere. Desert was very good but less tasteful than my entree and main dish. A great evening !

Really lovely location, especially if you get a table overlooking the river. Excellent, friendly service who spoke English and explained all our dishes. Chicken and ravioli both delicious. Desserts excellent too.

Had dinner looking out on the river, tasting exquisite food while listening to the gentle sounds of running water and birds.
The food is well presented and beautifully cooked.
The staff is extremely pleasant and accommodating.
I will definitely be being friends and family here when I am in Chartres!

Terra
A short walk from the city centre, in the suburbs of Chartres, the husband-and-wife team behind Terra (he is an Italian chef and she is a South African pastry chef) extend an invitation to join them on a culinary journey. The excellent and quintessentially Italian cuisine is served in a friendly atmosphere – the fiorentina-style cannelloni stuffed with veal and spinach and the house parmesan sauce is delicious!

Le Georges
Le Grand Monarque, which is home to Le Georges, has stood the test of time – the hotel’s first mention in the Michelin Guide dates back to 1900! This elegantly appointed establishment is ideally located between Paris and the Loire at a crossroads between the regions of western France. Thomas Parnaud is consistently and devotedly pursuing his mission of shining the spotlight on local producers who respect the environment whilst using a top-to-tail ethos. Notable dishes include gambas from the Loire region with Sologne caviar or a flaky pastry pie of mallard duck with foie gras. It would be a crime to miss his Grand Marnier soufflé, a flawlessly crafted classic that still graces the menu. The impeccably curated wine cellar boasts some 3,000 vintages with a spotlight on Val de Loire wines. Simpler, seasonal fare in the pleasant brasserie patio. The hotel’s charming guestrooms provide the icing on the cake!

Bistrot Racines
Eugène Viollet-le-Duc found Chartres's Gothic cathedral to be the most beautiful in France. The owner of Le Grand Monarque Hotel had the inspired idea of opening this friendly bistro and wine bar with a terrace overlooking the imposing edifice. Locals, pilgrims and tourists dig into good traditional fare that showcases local farmers and market gardeners: pâté en croûte; veal belly, coffee reduction and fluffy dauphine potatoes; floating island served with a ladle, a French childhood classic. Savvy choice of wines from small-scale winegrowers.

Le Moulin de Ponceau
This restaurant, well known to the people of Chartres, taken over by hotel industry pros, turns out to be a nice surprise. In an alluring 16C building located in the historic heart of town and on the banks of the Eure, the chef prepares seasonal, deft and colourful cuisine in keeping with a responsible ethos. Attentive service, terrace in a bucolic setting.
