FAVOURITE Restaurants
Favourite Restaurants
Hotel d’Alibert Caunes-Minervois, 0 km
This excellent restaurant is certainly the closest since it is directly across the street from L’Ancienne Boulangerie. The owner, Frederic is a superb host with a distinctly unusual sense of humour. The menu features local dishes and everyone should dine here at least once during their stay in Caunes-Minervois. Please ask us to make a reservation when booking with us. Closed Sundays and Mondays 0468780054
Auberge de la Clamoux, Villeneuve, 6km
This lovely country restaurant is 5 minutes away by car. It is cheerful and inexpensive and certainly one of our favourites. Michelle the owner is a lovely lady and she will do all that she can to make your evening an excellent one 0468261569
L’Oustal de Citou, Citou, 7km
Dine with Jean Michel and Yolande in their home -------literally in their dining room. Reservations are essential since they prepare only for the number of people booked in for that evening. There is a set meal but on booking you can always make it known that there are certain foods you would prefer not to have and they will make alternative suggestions. The drive to the restaurant takes about 15 minutes but it is an exhilarating route especially on the way home! 0468780899
La Peniche Homps, 20 km
Located along the Canal du Midi in Homps this restaurant
offers local cuisine which is usually served in the garden to the rear of the property. Excellent food at reasonable prices. Again it is better to book but we will do that for you.
0768912434
La Bergerie, Aragon , 19km
This is dining at a very high level. Fabien Galibert is a talented young chef who serves local cuisine prepared with local produce from local farmers e.g. Roast pike with semi mashed ratte and capers, or monkfish cheek fried in breadcrumbs with green cabbage and black pudding. The building and setting are exquisite although sometimes a little difficult to find. We assure you however it is worth the journey 0468261065
El Campo Trebes, 15km
This place is resolutely Latin, serving Spanish and Italian cuisine. There is a wide choice of pizzas and fresh home made pasta, tapas and a mix of Spanish dishes. Themed nights are organized regularly 0468786161
Les Capitelles, Peyriac, 6km
This is an excellent pizzeria but offering other nightly specials. It is cheap and cheerful but very acceptable 0468782977
La Grande Fontaine Caunes- Minervois 0 km
The Snack Bar, the Pub—we just call it our local. It offers simple meals but the food is generally very good. It offers good value for lunch at 12 euro
