we popped in as a family in august, and were ignored whilst we waited to order , during which time the owners and waiting staff were cordially chatting to the other guests , so we left. we have eaten there before under the previous management,...(we have family living locally, so are regular visitors to verteuil), so decided to book for dinner. we were given a table outside , near the open large street doors and asked to move inside after aperitifs, which we were told would be no problem. except when we asked to move inside 15 minutes later it was indeed a problem and we were not allowed. it was now so windy that the menus were blown off the table..... so... food was good when it arrived, se...
would recommend le couvent des cordeliers on the basis of our only visit (previously). with French friends and they also found it perfect. service friendly, efficient and helpful, but not intrusive. simple, with regard to the choices, but very fanciful and well-designed dishes professionally...combined with fresh ingredients. something for all, including vegetarians. the wine list is also very simple, based on a well selected house red, white and a rosé in carafe. we paid a very reasonable 36€ per head (I'm not sure why another review found it 'overpriced', especially given the setting and the charming restored building and beautiful garden . they also seem to do English tees from the aftern...
I received a warm welcome from my host. looked outside on a quiet Sunday in the city verteuil, somewhere in the region charentes. we sat outside and talked to the owner who was very urban. my cucumber and I had the spicy pumpkin soup with ceps. on toast, very tasty, much taste. our chauffeur had the lamb that looked very delicious. sitting at the river was only magical, and the owner then showed us the very old krypta used for the new years eve celebrations. I just wish I lived closer!

Food excellent in the evening, expensive but you pay for the surroundings, great for a special occasion.We also visited for afternoon tea which was lovely. My only negative comment is that, as it's a high class establishment, they should give a choice of loose tea, maybe Assam.
Stumbled across this lovely hotel restaurant this summer. Such a fantastic fairytale place! And the food was just brilliant. So good to find good quality vegetarian choices especially in France. Well done. We'll be back!
we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast on the terrace then a walk to the river, pithy it was too cold to take a bath in the pool, maybe next time.
We usually go here, but the food quality is droppingThe mussles were dry and there was no ice creamThe cookies were soggy.
