The best bistros and brasseries Rhône-Alpes

In the commune of Haut-Bocage, Stéphanie and Arnaud have made their establishment a very friendly place, adding a small extension to it, allowing them to accommodate around thirty people, giving it a nice touch. Add to that a pleasant terrace, made of small pink gravel, hidden by the Virginia creeper, surrounded by potted lantanas and petunias. Shaded by colourful curtains adorned at night with a starry sky of small lights. Arnaud elaborates a traditional cuisine made with very local products. Its salads are composed of sheep's cheese from Louroux-Hodement, and goat's cheese from Venas. On weekends, he offers you his specialities of foie gras, veal head and veal andouillette with string. He also makes special meals for the holidays. They organize a themed meal on the first Friday evening of the month, mussels and chips, gagouilles and snails, sauerkraut... They also offer takeaway meals. Starting next summer, a pallet bar will be added on the terrace. Don't hesitate to get off the highway to stop by this top couple's house!

In this business park on the heights of Vienne, with easy access and parking, what a pleasure it is to meet at l'Entrecôte d'Alice. This traditional brasserie boasts a beautiful terrace and a warm dining room, and offers a wide range of gourmet dishes, especially meat and offal specialties. Home-made foie gras, Alice's famous entrecôte, tasty prime rib, tartare, home-made burger, but also calf's head or Bobosse andouillette. A few concert evenings. Good times to share at Alice's.

Everybody needs to go to the Powder Room, "place of friendly interest". At La Croix-Rousse, a pretty Little Corner with a very successful decoration opening its terrace towards a large quiet place. A Little Corner which welcomes us in all conviviality all day long, from breakfast to snacks, including seasonal slate and boards to share in the evenings. Butcher's Piece, beef and salmon tartars, but also vegetal. Everyone is delighted, enjoying a warm welcome and friendly service. Petanque balls at your disposal!

Labelle Cantine is an integral part of the Labelle Bière concept. The place is at the same time a beer cellar, a bar where you can share a moment of conviviality with a good foam and an aperitif board filled with regional products... At Labelle Cantine, we offer a unique and different dish every day at lunchtime, cooked homemade from Monday to Friday according to the chef's mood... With that two starters and two desserts to choose from. Among the proposals, we can appreciate, among others, carrot cream and haddock, chicken carry and pineapple soup... The presentation of the venue would not be entirely complete if we forgot to mention that, from time to time, Labelle Bière hosts events and concerts, just to add a little spice to the agenda.

The potatoes come from Ardèche, as do the strawberries (from Arras-sur-Rhône) and many other ingredients. Kélonia has a pleasant terrace and a cheerful dining room. Sample menu of the day: Saint-Marcellin toast, pork loin with rosemary and roasted potatoes, Valrhona chocolate brownie and custard. Another dish? Tuna rillettes in a saladine, curried chicken supreme and rice with baby vegetables, and vanilla crème brûlée. All freshness and flavor. The little extra? Complimentary coffee and tea.

Fancy a trip back in time? Then step inside Bouillon Mocher! The décor, music and ambience take you back to the 1950s. Sylvain gives you a warm welcome and you're soon seated at a table with a deliciously retro decor. No fuss: your order is written directly on the tablecloth! On the menu: homemade mayo eggs or herring and apples in oil for starters, followed by basquaise chicken or homemade sausage and purée. For dessert, we stick to the classics: rum baba or fruit tart. A real favorite!

Located 30 km from Valencia, this restaurant offers traditional cuisine with the mussels/fries, pizzas, salads and grills, all prepared with seasonal products. On the beautiful terrace, on the terrace and under the pergola, you can enjoy the views of the Eyrieux valley. 

Thanks to the Bourgès brothers, you can rediscover the spirit of the neighborhood bistro between Les Salins and Marcombes. Every lunchtime on weekdays, come and enjoy Thibaut's simple, well-cooked dishes based on French gastronomy. A vegetarian dish and a truffade are also on the menu. Everything is prepared with local produce: the meats come from the neighboring butcher's and the breads from l'Atelier Bon. In the dining room, the two brothers are accompanied by Boran Mao-Johnston, who offers a warm welcome. The café also welcomes gourmands for game nights and match broadcasts. The restaurant can be privatized. This is the place you've been missing in the Vallières district!

In this restaurant, the oldest business in the shopping mall of the Auchan d'Epagny shopping center (access through the Parmelan gate), despite the very attractive formulas, there's no cheating, just naturalness: we wash, we peel, we cook... Salads in different sizes, beef tartare prepared with a knife in front of you, marinated meats, scallop risotto, Savoyard or veggie burger, veal escalope with forest sauce, tiramisu of the moment with chocolate fondant... A friendly breakfast experience starting at 8 a.m. Fast, efficient service with Élodie in the dining room.

It's the bistro-style version of the Grande Table gastronomique, whose address it shares within the famous Maison Chabran. And it's one of 6 restaurants run by Louis Chabran, son of Michel Chabran. A true institution built up over the decades by the patriarch. Le 45ème combines local produce with elegance. On the Coup de Coeur menu, for example: filet de maigre à la plancha, viennoise of herbs and turmeric cream, veal chop to share, smoked mashed potatoes, jus de cuisson...
