"We had passed this restaurant, built in a traditional chalet style, several times on our way to do walks, and decided to have lunch there one day. We were very pleased that we did! The decor is very charming and the atmosphere cosy. We chose the basic fixed price menu, which was both copious and excellent. Really traditional Auvergne food, and excellent quality. The service was very friendly and efficient. You can also get snacks here like a dessert or pancakes with coffee or mulled wine. The restaurant is situated in the beautiful Chaudefour Valley, a spectacular U-shaped valley that runs straight down from the Puy de Sancy, and views of the valley and the Sancy massif are stunning. The restaurant is at the official start/end of the circular walk of the Chaudefour Valley, but it would be worth starting the walk from another location so you could have lunch here half-way round! We decided to visit again for dinner on the last night of our holiday, as it is the nicest restaurant we have found in the area. Highly recommended."
