This atypical, convivial venue occupies a former cocoon factory dating from 1863, where the magnans brought their silkworm cocoons to be dried and reeled. A painstaking job of making silk thread reels for Lyon's canuts. Viticulture then took over, and Clairette de Die began to be produced here. In 2021, the new owners renovated the premises to open them up to guests, for a night, a week, a meal, to host shows, to open a repair workshop. You can even rent an electric bike.

After a thorough renovation, this restaurant, located in a beautiful bourgeois house in the old town, reopened in April 2023. A fine dining experience that began under the name of La Véranda, now known as L'Îlot. From spring onwards, a lovely shaded terrace unfolds under the lime trees and on the lawn, while winter brings us into a cosy dining room. A great place for a drink or a bite to eat, with delicious home-cooked dishes. And to go with a good meal, we treat ourselves to a homemade fruity smoothie.
