Fun and entertainment Aveyron

Zeste is a nice address in Millau, a place to go in the city, where you can enjoy exquisite delicacies at any time of the day or have a lunch. In this tea room-pastry shop-small restaurant, Arielle, who trained at the famous Lenôtre, prepares everything herself: from the toast, pasta or full plates offered at lunchtime to the pastries, which some people consider the best in Millau! The millefeuille or the caramel tart are well worth the service that some people find a little long.

One feels immediately at home in this small tea room. Evelyne Fournier treats us with her homemade cakes, accompanied by delicious teas, of which there is a vast choice. For lunch, she offers us a formula of savory treats, mostly organic or vegetarian in one plate, with among others a carrot and cumin cake, gluten-free forgotten vegetable pies or a cream of market vegetables, a broccoli chestnut clafoutis. But everything depends on the season and everything is so good that the salon is quickly full.

Every day, from Tuesday to Saturday, at 4.45pm precisely, this unique establishment in the Ruthenan landscape opens its doors to a clientele thirsty for some lively mixtures. Aricia, the barman, and Rémi, the sommelier, have combined their Franco-Australian experience in fine establishments to create a quality liquid menu. In addition to the wines, from the most affordable to the most sophisticated, 16.45 serves excellent cocktails. From the famous Pina Colada to creations prepared on demand, the team makes it a point of honour to use good products and appropriate glassware.

The owners of the place have put everything they love here and dressed this half-bar half-brothel of hundreds of books, vinyls, furniture and various objects to hunt.... The decoration, cosy as one would wish, therefore evolves according to sales, when the welcome remains invariably warm. Between two coffees, the establishment offers concert evenings, with a pretty menu of cocktails.... And cheese or sausage platters. We're in Aveyron anyway! The place is particularly popular on Saturday mornings at market time, for a coffee or an aperitif in good company.

From September to May it offers quality programming (theatre, musques, young public…).

This establishment, well known for its musical programming and its lively evenings, is also worth a visit for its kitchen. Protected from a beautiful th century building, Jean-Marc welcomes his clients in two stone and wood rooms. On plates

Its frontage has a 1930s look and its faithful clientele lets the fashions pass without being moved by anything. If José Bové particularly likes this address, it is because it is a place of debate where everyone has the right to express themselves. Books are available for consultation, to pass the time while swallowing a salad, a croque-monsieur, a piece of leek quiche or a sandwich. An ideal break when visiting the city, not to say an obligatory passage to keep up to date with the latest news from the city of the Glove.

Ideally located in the commercial area of Le Crès, at the exit of the A75, the Bowling de Millau is a must in the city of the Glove. In addition to the eight bowling lanes that stretch under the spotlights, table soccer, pinball machines and billiards allow to diversify the pleasures. The leisure complex also houses a restaurant, whose friendly menu (pizzas, burgers, sausage-aligot, homemade ice creams...) pleases all generations. At the head of the establishment, Serge Gaillard is indeed an attentive boss to all.

One of the few theatres in Aveyron is an Italian theatre with the programming of Cultural Associations in the Region.

This small tearoom on a sloping street in the center of Millau is run with a smile and good humor. Fresh, seasonal produce and regional specialities form the basis of a menu that changes every week: fresh goat's cheese and pesto cheesecake with carrot and orange velouté, naan with curried zucchini cheese, lamb navarin, pea and feta tart, honey and apricot clafoutis... The menu also includes a range of delicious tarts. Desserts follow the same philosophy, with homemade goodness and lots of gourmet goodness.

This café is one of the must-see places in the town. The Commerce is indeed the establishment which moves in Saint-Affrique. From the morning coffee to the aperitif, the place is very frequented, by all generations. The friendly service team is certainly a big part of it! You feel good right away and large screens allow you to follow the major sporting events. Regularly, karaoke, DJ, concerts, sports and belote evenings are organised and bring a little more conviviality to this already very welcoming space.

Millau is off the beaten track with this friendly coffee shop. In an Anglo-Saxon atmosphere, one comes for a coffee, tea, snack or a good dinner. At 4pm, cookies, cupcakes, cheesecakes, apple pies and other English pastries. At noon, bagels, sandwiches and wraps. As for drinks, it's a festival of delicacies. All we can tell you is that Nelly doesn't complain about whipped cream! We recommend the lattella and roasted hazelnut syrup, ristretto, whipped cream, caramelized pecans with salted butter...

This salon de thé et tarterie is ideally located in rue du Bal, on the cobblestones leading to the big Saturday market on place du Bourg. In the hands of a convinced environmentalist, it offers simple yet high-quality cuisine based on local, organic or fair-trade produce. The lemonades and beer, for example, are from Aveyron, and the iced coffees and infusions are homemade. The desserts, necessarily prepared on site, are excellent: strawberry tiramisù, chocolate fondant, apricot and almond tart, strawberry rhubarb apple compote..

After studying in Montpellier and living in Ajaccio for a while, Magalie came back home, determined to open her coffee shop in Saint-Jean-du-Bruel. Since June 2020, the young woman, who trained as a barista, has been serving non-alcoholic cocktails and espresso-based coffee drinks to the people of the village and to tourists. At lunchtime, she serves food in this small business that she wanted to reflect her image: optimistic and sparkling. A few colourful tables, set up on the porch, allow you to taste salads, sandwiches or nicely elaborated boards.

Sharing, exchanging and conviviality are the key words of this atypical space, located on the outskirts of the city centre of Rodez. Part wine cellar (the V), part brewery (the B of beer), part English pub... The V and B in the Parc de Saint-Marc in Onet-le-Château is above all a treasure trove for alcohol lovers. More than 350 references of beers; as many wines of the great French regions, champagnes, whiskies, and other spirits... The place is ideal for shopping during the day, but also for a drink.

Cransac earned its stripes as an authentic spa town in April 2015, with the inauguration of the department's first - and only - casino. Built in the building that once housed the showers of the miners of the Basin, the establishment has imposed itself in the world of entertainment Aveyron, with a rich sample of slot machines, gaming tables (black jack in particular) and electronic roulette. A brasserie and a bar also offer drinks, cocktails, salads, grills, pizzas and other snacks. A snack menu completes the offer 7 days a week.

Prescilla went back to school and took her CAP pastry diploma as an independent candidate to open this cosy, elegant tearoom in Millau town center. The menu at Les Gourmandises de Jules, named after her son, includes homemade cakes, tarts and cookies, accompanied by a good cup of coffee, organic tea, lemonade or homemade fruit juice. At lunchtime, the menu is simple, but as tasty as it is affordable: salad, buddha bowl and main course (hake with mushroom and cream sauce...).

In her shop, Audrey offers a selection of nearly 150 different varieties, most of which are certified organic. Green, black, white, yellow... Grown in Nepal, Japan, China, Thailand, Sri Lanka or India... Natural or scented... The choice is dizzying. Audrey also offers all the necessary accessories for a proper tasting: teapots, kettles, cups... A corner in the shop allows you to sit down at any time of the day to enjoy a tea of course, but also a coffee or homemade lemonades.
