Le Chene Vert - Reservar una mesa

We were looking for somewhere to eat a late lunch on 14th July. I know, not a good day to find a restaurant without a booking, it being Bastille Day and everywhere closed or booked solid. However, we stopped in the square in front of the station in Vitré and looked across the road to this restaurant and it appeared to be busy. We found a table outside, looked at the menu (while we had a coffee) and decided to stay. The food was simple but tasty and well presented. The service was excellent, no English was spoken (which is how we like it) so we were able to practise our French. In fact, the waitress complimented us on our French, (It's not fluent by a long way, and we make lots of mistakes)....

Having a wander through the town of Vitre we saw what a sun trap this place was. So we sat ourselves down at one of the spare tables on the terrace, and awaited service. None came.

Delightful young waitress, who when I gave her a tip and thanked her for looking after us so well, replied that it was her job! We ate outside to benefit from the weak sunshine and it was very pleasant watching the world go by. Called back later for a drink. The choucroute was very good - hot, and not too much of it.

This is a nice restaurant that offers French dishes in the really beautiful city of Vitré. There is a nice terrace, facing a lively square, ideal to bask in the sun as you are having your lunch. Prices are quite moderate, the portions and rather...More
