Really cute and cozy restaurant, chill atmosphere and great quality.
We went for dinner on a Wednesday, the place was not too crowded. The service is nice, they helped us to decide which wine to take.
Perfect for a quiet and chill meal, with high quality. The ingredients are fresh and the dishes well prepared, original and with a good amount of food.
Don’t miss the dessert!

Delicious food and top service. We came here for my girlfriend’s birthday. I’d recommend making a reservation to get a table as its very popular. We had the Veal tartare, sea bass, risotto and chocolate & pistachio fondant for dessert

Meat Loaf sang that 2 out of three ain't bad, if that's the case the chef at The Avenue must not have got the message as all three courses delivered where excellent.
Service was excellent, atmosphere chilled.
Bar drinks were delishous to the citrus cocktail is a triumph.
From the UK here for one night and it was an inspired choice. Well done wifee

A beautiful restaurant, with a nice outdoor space on an (almost) pedestrian street. Very special and creative menu, with elaborated dishes, beautifully presented. Each dish is very imaginative, with interesting spices/condiments. We loved the ceviche and the octopus starters, and the sea bass was outstanding. Congratulations!

Restaurant is close to city center, in a very good location.
The atmosphere here is coasy, with a relaxing vibe.
Personnel was friendly, making good recommendations from the menu.
Even though there is not a large variety of plates, they are prepared at their best.
We had a delicious octopus as starter and we would have taken the second one.
The main dishes were well cooked, with an unique taste.
Overall experience was pleasant. For sure we will come back on our next visit in Clermont-Ferrand.

Mouffu
After Le Saint Eutrope, here's a second convivial restaurant where diners come to feast on down-to-earth fare such as pâté en croûte, vol-au-vent or pork filet mignon with a mustard sauce – served with a good selection of natural wines. The chef-patron, the son of a baker, changed course to become a chef. His succinct menu with clear headings is a veritable ode to family and humble cuisine. The simple bistro decor is a touch vintage, with antiques and mismatched furniture. Friendly and festive atmosphere.

Polypode
At chef Quentin Burnet's restaurant, the creativity starts right off the bat, with amuse-bouches such as a tartlet with Comté cream, wasabi and Amarena cherry. This modern cuisine, in which plants play a prominent role, demonstrates his ability to use (a limited number of) ingredients, condiments, plants and aromatic herbs (including polypodium, an edible fern!) in just the right proportions, and serve them with beautifully contrasting sauces. The pollack with peas, asparagus and grapefruit, and the guinea fowl with gnocchi and mushrooms are shining examples of his eye for freshness and precision when it comes to harmonising flavours.

Le 62
This restaurant masterfully titillates our tastebuds thanks to the deftly judged seasonings and harmonious flavours of the gifted young Vietnamese-born chef, who trained at Chamalières and the Belle Meunière in Royat. A polished bistronomic lineup rich in Gallic overtones, illustrated by loin of pork from Aveyron, stuffed with chards and chorizo and a citrus-flavoured sauce vierge. The desserts are equally high-flying, depicted by a creamy praline, hazelnut biscuit and a refreshing passion fruit/rocket leaf note; Excellent value for money and a small patio add the final flourish to this irresistible establishment.

Le Chardonnay
Hugues Maisonneuve is at the helm of this swish bistro. In the kitchen, a young chef rustles up a concise, seasonal à la carte menu and a particularly enticing market-fresh menu. Everything here looks as good as it tastes. Trendy vintage décor, soft lighting and a pleasant patio.

Smørrebrød
Modernity is the key word, from the Scandinavian decor to the food, which highlights veggies and premium seasonal ingredients (arancini of green peas, creamy green peas in mint; Monts d’Aubrac trout baked at a low temperature, Planèze blond dried peas, miso and beurre blanc…), washed down with a fine selection of wines. Small terrace on the street.

Apicius
Bang in the city centre, on the first floor of Saint Pierre Market, this swanky restaurant enjoys a lofty location. The stylish venue sports a series of beautifully appointed contemporary dining rooms and exquisite tableware. Chef Arkadiusz Zuchmanski, of Polish extraction, decided to move to France to fortify a vocation that took root in the kitchen of his forebears. He confesses an unbridled passion for noble ingredients and for Auvergne, which reminds him of the landscapes of his home city, Drzewica. The focus is on visually striking plating and honest, simply crafted ingredients, such as foie gras with hand-picked wild pepper or sautéed sweetbread with truffle parsnip.

Le Duguesclin
This intimate restaurant opposite the former Excise and Duty House serves well-prepared seasonal cuisine in its vaulted room. The short menu is available in the form of "land" or "sea" set menus offering very good value for money. During the week, the lunch menu is tailored to the busy business clientele; at dinner, the menu is more ambitious. Summer terrace to the rear to be enjoyed in fine weather.

L'Instantané
This contemporary bistro located in the art gallery district proposes moments of pure culinary bliss, dreamt up by a seasoned chef (Ritz, Lasserre, Plaza). Veal, poultry and pork “porkpie”, 12-hour melt-in-the-mouth beef, roast loin of hake with hazelnut butter, crème brûlée… Finger licking good from start to finish!
