Café du Château - Bagnols

Traveling with friends we had a very nice dinner at this hotel dining room. The amuse bouche was creative and a taste treat. The lamb and veal were superb. Service was friendly and very professional. The wine list was extensive with lots of Beaujolais as...one would expect in this region.

The chateau is as beautiful as in the pictures, the dining room as well. The service is good but the food is not up to the standards. For a Michelin star it needs lots of work: the least they can do is offer butter with...the bread because this is the only thing that will fill your stomach, extremely small portions regardless of the chosen menu, prices are extremely high in comparison to the quantity, many Michelin restaurants put at least twice the quantity this restaurant serves. It is a rip-off!

This was a culinary experience. We loved the dinner at the Chateau Bagnols and we have been telling our friends about the food and presentation and atmosphere ever since our stay. I didn't realize this was a Michelin rated location until we started eating. The...dinner was a presentation of food and wine. Every plate was a new adventure from the langostino to the beef to the dessert. This was a two and a half hour meal and we loved every minute of it. Our French speaking was a bit rough, but the waiter was excellent and helped us select our meal and did a great job explaining the chef's preparations. We were seated immediately and he didn't mind when we asked to move from the center of the room. The locals wines were also top notch and delightful. This might be pricey for some, but know that you are enjoying an exquisite meal.

Staying in the castle was unbelievable but having dinner at the restaurant was a culinary brilliant experience. The chef Jene Alexander was magical the food and presentation beyond words . Bravo and the ambience and service impeccable. Truly a star Michelin dinning experience. Merci

We ate dinner here two separate nights during our stay. Food and service were quite good. There is enough variety to hold your interest across two nights, with good quality ingredients. But do not expect Michelin star creativity or panache. The dining room is also...lovely as a historic landmark.
