The best restaurants Périgord

The setting of this listed 16th-century building already is already worth the detour with its terrace offering a view of the facade of the Maison de la Boétie. Katia Fournier and Jordy Bordes have opted for a modern decoration while preserving what makes the room so charming: the blond stones, the pasted beams and the fireplace which adds a warm atmosphere. The tablecloth is clear: string-colored placemats placed on the white tablecloths bring modernity. The couple likes welcoming and offer a local cuisine. The idea of a menu that you compose yourself is original. As a starter, the Périgord casserole egg with its foie gras escalope is just delicious. In a dish alongside the traditional confit and duck breast, we like the red label poultry supreme and its mushroom sauce. For dessert, the chocolate fondant rivals the old Souillac's plum baba.

In a pleasant and restful setting 5 minutes from the center of Bergerac, this beautiful residence houses a gourmet restaurant and a hotel offering great comfort.

Guillaume Pichaud bought the Relais d'Ans where he worked. Fabrice Pichaud joined the family… The summer terrace on the edge of water is nice. Guillaume prepares a homemade cuisine - except for charcuterie and pastry - simple, based on fresh and local produce including some organic vegetables from his garden. There's no dishes with sophisticated names, but everything that you could eat as at home with the little plus of the chef: a Marengo calf, a steak in Roquefort sauce, a pear poached with wine, a true chocolate mousse… On the chalk menu, no more than 3 or 4 dishes at the choice and always homemade pizzas and, in summer, salads. In winter, thematic evenings are organized on reservation and various animations in the afternoon are offered, do not hesitate to inquire.

In one of the most beautiful villages of France, the Manouvrier family has been at the helm of the establishment for generations and in pure perimeter tradition. It is one of the sons, Christophe who is now in the furnaces to make you taste a simple and tasty cuisine highlighting local products. The chef's menu, depending on season, will regenerate you from a fatty liver of duck cooked to the torgo with its mango chutney, followed by a lamb of duck needles sauce and a chestnut chestnut cream. To the map, the duck confit of sarladese potatoes with ceps (a specialty of the house, true institution since 1948), but one can also opt for a XXL burger with house fries, an omelet of the priest (ceps, snails and foie gras) or shells of spruce stoves. In summer, the patio shady patio is very pleasant. You can also sit on the terrace in front of the restaurant for a drink, eat a salad, or ice cream.

Under the cliff cliff, the Jugie family has been at the helm since 1947 and does not need to learn the job: The staff were friendly and helpful. The country's products are honoured and well prepared: crystallized or enchaud duck thigh, hen thigh, ceps omelet, etc. The Basement Base is a menu for itself: duck foie, green salad, duck sleeves, vegetables, fries, goat cheese Rocamadour… The regulars attend the establishment for the menu of the day, unbeatable with its soup served in winter, then the entrance, the dish and the dessert always renewed (delicious crumbled to strawberries, chestnut cake…). You can sit on the terrace with views of the valley or under the cliff, or in the cave hall. The house also provides group hosting and even organizes day visits. Note the external toilets, with a "panoramic" expectation: never seen elsewhere.

Sandrine and Harry Buisson opened this shop to make it feel like… Taste Iberian and Italian delicacies, want good cheeses and want tartines inspired by the Italian bruschetta made from the fresh produce of the store. In principle, the map consists of eight plus the tartin of the moment accompanied by house fries, also a flat dish, entries and fixed desserts. Example of winter tartine at duck magret, fungi sometimes even ceps, tomato base and liver toast, or fresh cream base, roast of beef, Périgord ceps and mozzarella. Marriages that the couple tests during his days of rest… The dish of the day can be a Norman gratin or a tartiflette. 

Jeff Gautier has a 40-year career as a drummer. He has played with the greatest stars of French variety and has created a local orchestra, the Bars on Fire. With his wife, Marianne, he opened this restaurant in the countryside. The menu, offered in the form of a formula, is short: homemade terrine with three meats (pork, veal, game), egg casserole with foie gras or camembert roasted in the oven for starters. Special menus are organized around stuffed hens, calf's head gribiche, Flemish carbonade.... Meat and vegetables are mainly selected and purchased in the region. In this establishment, music is king. We rush the first Friday of every month for karaoke: we sing a song with a real professional orchestra, and the other Fridays it's Jams Sessions. The boss organizes blues, rock, soul, rhythm'n blues concerts with special gourmet formulas or snack plates (cold cuts, raw vegetables, tapas) and fish & chips. Everything here, atmosphere and decoration, breathes the love of music, in summer the stage is outside, on the shaded terrace.

The owner of Petit Nice, Bruno Beylet invaded the city centre to create a sort of HQ that welcomes night owls, especially the evenings of matches and on weekends. Design and sober which blends in a subtle way polished concrete, wood and carpet, dominated by red and black. The Owner favours local products, limousine meat, charcuterie from Auvergne cheeses of the country and all desserts are homemade. On slate wall à la carte, and on a wall beef detailed into pieces. The tone is set because here meat certified limousine Red Label is honoured. for example a rib for 2 people, a tartare way of the chef cut with a knife everything is accompanied by fried at will and green salad. Difficult to choose between apple tart, a soft chocolate and salted butter, profiteroles or gourmet coffee. Before leaving, you can even dedicate the ceiling that is used to some extent as guestbook. Private terrace in the back.

Pizza del Arte is an authentic invitation to enjoy the sunshine and the pleasure through healthy products, cooked in accordance with Italian traditions. The pizza dough is kneaded every day by hand and baked in a sole oven. It is crisp and well stocked with fresh quality products.

André Fénelon, well known on the square, and for the reason he is already owner of the Bar Saint-Silain, offers sandwiches, salads, croques and ice creams.

Before you come here, you have to have reserved your table because the establishment is popular. It is a bit the medieval atmosphere that makes the guests run, because here we eat in candle. The kitchen is cooked in the wood fire and there are dishes to the old worthy of Asérix: magic potion, gaudy soup, marcassin, boar or porcelain, home touring, carafe wine at will, etc. There is also a fully fish menu. There are 4 x 4 walks in the middle of the wild boars and cervids, but here too it is recommended to book. Gaulois rented rooms and cabins perched for 2 and 4 people at 5 meters from the ground in a oak garden.

Very good idea that of the boutique Tcompany, which smells good all the teas of the world (55 fragrances), has set up a salon of teas (one can also enter by the back, by the small square of the A. Cahuet street) with internet point and a bio snack: onions to onions or based tomato tomato, pie potimarron spices or leeks-comté to 6,50 €, basing chocolate or apple pie at 5 €, all to taste on site or to take. You can also enjoy coffee (1,50 €) and warm organic chocolates (3,50 €) while admiring the exhibitions offered regularly.

The brand is well established at the regional level, especially on the Atlantic coast. Claudine and Nadine are on the orders of this French coffee shop with warm tones, with hints of oak and coloured wood. The ideal location for a break, as the wifi point is free. You can dine for a salad or a sandwich, croques, quiches and panini. Craquer for specialities based on chocolate and coffee: cappuccino (also iced), iced coffee, Viennese chocolate, coffee latté, flavoured chocolate… and also milk shake and delicious. It's a really delicious place, with a terrace on the sidewalk.

Sébastien and Elizabeth Siri know how to attract a family clientele through the quality of their restaurant and their reception. Children and babies are welcome (baby change, high chairs, toys and menus). The restaurant is equipped for disabled guests. The frame is pleasant, surrounded by a small park with a ball pitch, children's games, three terraces and two large car parks.

The menu on Sunday midday includes a buffet of starters, a dish with choice of vegetables, cheese and green salad, buffet of desserts with will, wine and coffee included. In the summer, Sébastien and Elizabeth organize dancing evenings and barbecue with a choice of fresh fish and a wide selection of meat.

A beautiful view of Sarlat, a modern, spacious and beautifully decorated room, and a home made kitchen made from local products: This Puits Fleuri is an excellent gastronomic step. On the italy menu, duck rillettes, perigordian salad, duck magret and sarladaises potatoes, cheese and a gourmet café worthy of a large restaurant. You are even offered an aperitif and a digestive. In addition, the chef treats the dressage of his dishes…

The leisure complex of Saint-Avit also has its gourmet table. The rooms are inspired by the rural architecture where wood, stone and large fireplace pass through the unshakably time. The map makes a good contribution to local products and adds a small, discreet signature. The chef offers you duck with respect and tradition. His cuisine is generous, attractive, goûteuse, even in the declination of the vegetarian menu. Themed evenings (folie burgers, mussels, etc.)

The formula is very nice and has already been used in several cities: this brand offering pancakes, pancakes, pancakes, waffles, salads, milkshakes and smoothies has planted its wooden decor in the heart of the Leaf Store shopping mall, under a skylight and irresistibly draws people around its central counter where you can see the preparations. You compose your salad with three ingredients, choose from many recipes of salty and sweet creams, with a good bowl of cider and sit down while waiting to be served. The team is young, dynamic, smiling, with a pretty headdress and a black apron. An eye on the preparation and maintenance of the tables, and we are assured of the cleanliness of the premises. It's simple and efficient, with a focus on products.

A little air from Spain blows through Lou Bombareau thanks to the patron saint of the place Anita, an Andalusian woman who has lived in Périgord since she was a child. She is in the kitchen and Estelle in the service. The cuisine is homemade from local products and the market. We like the slate from Périgord, made up of a gizzard salad, duck sleeves with cep sauce and homemade fries, all served with a dessert of the day. A la carte: salads, omelettes, but also mussels with curry, blue... The egg casserole is an unconditional. On the menu, there is always a choice between grilled meat, fish with a Spanish sauce and its vegetables of the moment and a ready-made meal. The small restaurant room with its exposed stones and light tones is very pleasant, but in summer you can also enjoy the terrace overlooking the church square. For the feast of Sainte-Catherine, we come from far away to taste the chicken in the pot served with a mushroom sauce.

The place is ideal, facing the abbey, bordering Dronne, with the hinge of two shopping streets. The terrace and the colorful atmosphere attract the eye! This restaurant brasserie offers many hot or cold dishes, salads, a dish of the market with all specialties that Périgord has (liver, duck, and mushrooms!), the dishes of the country and pizzas from there. The great classic for tourists not very rich and not in a hurry.
