The best French restaurant for miles around. Fantastic food, friendly hosts, and fair prices. Highly recommended. It just doesn't look like it from the outside, unfortunately. But don't let that put you off.

A wonderful city! There are good bars and restaurants. A highlight is certainly the spring of the Douix (Rue de la Douix).

The Douix or Douix de Châtillon is an abundant outflow at the origin of a short river of the same name which feeds the upper course of the Seine. The place is calm and idyllic as desired 👍🏽
