Le Bistrot - Reservar una mesa

Walking into this interesting building located in the town centre the decor is charming and as named it is a true bistro in that there is a bar which you can have a drink while you are waiting for your table. Service was quick and the food came in about 5 minutes! We took the Plat du jour which was Hachis parmentier (Shepherds Pie) This was a great choice as it was one of the tastiest I have ever had and went great with the house Merlot. My wife and daughter had the Salade Nordique (Prawns and salmon) which they both really enjoyed. Speaking with the owner after the meal, complimenting on his food he told me that all his food is prepared in-house and meats are sourced locally. Next day, I decided to return and had the Entrecote (Rib-Eye steak) with Chips and a pepper sauce which was tender and cooked exactly as I had asked for. Quantities are more than adequate and my only criticism is that I had no room for dessert. Because many locals seem to lunch there (A good sign), it was very busy both days I was there and although the staff seemed a little rushed at times they were courteous and friendly without being overbearing. I am sorry that the other english 1 star reviewer had a negative experience but reading her very dismissive and rather unfair review reveals that she was expecting to get the Plat du Jour after 1pm. (This is why I ignored this review and decided to give it a go); If you really know France then you will know that you need to find a restaurant no later than 12.30pm to get a table or the daily special as I have found out to my dissapointment many times. Also, you should know if you are a vegetarian then French restaurants will invariably have a very limited choice. There is no Pizza on the menu but there are plenty of other places which cater for that. They also do chips on their own and ham and cheese toasties (Croque -Monsieur) which are good if you have fussy children. As for drinks there is Affligem on tap and a good choice of reasonably priced wines.

We went for lunch on a rainy afternoon and were served for a table of five. The waitress looked rushed and no smiles throughout the lunch. The menu was very limited with a very small veggie and fsh choice. Too much meat on the menu. 3 of us decided to go for the dish of the day which was turkey. Only to be told it was sold out (at 1:10pm?! . Therefore had to choose from the menu. Service was slow and drinks were plonked loudly on table and waitress rushed off. When food arrived it was disappointing, overdone chips, bland salads and just nothing that could be a promising meal in a quaint decorative restaurant. I won't be visiting again.

In local city, we visit the restaurant about once a month. Service is normally good but it does get busy. The steaks and salads are excellent but beware of the Plat d'jour which can be a Breton specialty, which is often not to British taste.

Very nice little Bistro with delicious cuisine. We ate moules frites and the Burger Classic. It is located in the city center.
