The best restaurants Saint-Nectaire

Ideally located at the top of the village of Saint-Nectaire, this charming relay offers you the specialities of the region: plate of pork, truffles, aligot, andouillette mustard sauce, potée auvergne, char... On sunny days, you can have lunch on the terrace and enjoy the view over the Romanesque church, also a place to start hiking. Don't worry, there's a large parking lot waiting for you upstairs. Take the opportunity to take a look at the church and walk around it, it's very pleasant after a good meal. The nice thing is the late service (until about 3pm), ideal for a Sunday when we've been hanging out in bed or on the trails a little bit!

After a hike, before an evening at the casino, it is possible to get some strength at the Bistrot de Sharlie. Some will recognize a touch of the Estredelle de Pont-du-Château, especially in the selection of wines. Normal: Frédéric Jacquelin is the new manager of the establishment, until then called Restaurant le Z. Pork filet mignon with cider, can tenderloin in port honey sauce, pike-perch filet with white butter, truffles, fondue au saint-nectaire... there is something for everyone. For dessert, gourmets will fall for crème brûlée or a tiramisu. Everything here is homemade, and Brigitte, the chef, in all sympathy, does not fail to come to the dining room to discuss gastronomy.

The restaurant of the Hotel Regina, located at the entrance of the village of Saint-Nectaire, offers refined and well-presented dishes. All the dishes, often local specialities, are homemade. As an appetizer try the homemade terrine, or the smoked trout and its infused verbena sorbet. Continue with the Salers beef cooked sausage-style and its rhubarb compote, fish lovers will turn to the trout fillet with candied Saint-Nictaire cheese, green coulis and Auvergne potatoes. If you're looking for originality, try Regina's St. Nicholas fondue with dried cranberries, honey and hazelnuts. The meal will end on a sweet note. It is possible to have a special service for groups (birthday, stay, etc.).
