A group of 8 of us went for dinner and had a great experience - the staff was very friendly and fun (the waiter saw us taking photos outside while we waited for our table and came out to assist); the atmosphere is quaint and romantic (but not overly so); there was a good selection of wine, which was very reasonably priced as a bonus; the appetizers were all great and the desserts were worth it. I highly recommend the onion soup and the green been salad - this salad was amazing if you like green beans, and the onion soup was the best we had this trip. The entrees is the one area that I didn't think was stellar - I had the beef bourguignon, which was over-cooked. The phesant was good. Portions...
We were looking for a cosy place for lunch and stumbled across this restaurant. It was around 13h00 and packed. We went back 20 minutes later and were able to have a nice table for two by the window. A lovely cosmopolitan feel about the place, nicely decorated with the food and drinks menus on large blackboards on the walls. The staff were very friendy and the service excellent. We had a good meal with wine (half litre) followed by a cafe gourmand normal coffee, all for just over EUR 50 for the two of us.Apparently they change their menu every week. Great choice of wine at good prices, a good portion of food (I could not finish) which was very tasty. Not a large choice, but very adequate and...
We were hoping for dinner, but despite the large chalkboard menu on the wall, we were told that they only serve lunch. Okay, so we had some delicious wine the server selected and she was spot on, it was wonderful. After 3 days here, we still haven't figured out why some places are open for dinner on some nights and others aren't. Tonight (Friday) we went out and there was a huge street fair going on with vendors serving fried fish, mussels, and all other kinds of delicacies - we had dinner at a place on the lake and wish we had found the street fair first. Chez Fernand was open and serving food and beverage on this night as well.
Whenever I'm in Thonon I like to stop at Chez Fernand for a good noisette or espresso because they have the best coffee in town. They also make a great juice of the day, different everyday made with fresh fruit. It is always excellent. You can also have a light and healthy lunch, last time I was there I took the goat cheese salad and it was very good. For dessert I took a chocolate tart and I was also very tasty. Prices affordable. Food made of fresh quality products. The waitresses and barmen very nice, smiley and helpful. Very good place for a quick and healthy meal.

With daily concoctions of fresh juices, ranging from melon-raspberry to orange-papaya-kiwi, single-grove coffees, and emphasis on local, healthful products, Fernand & Cie is a destination worth putting on your itinerary, whether you reside nearby or are travelling through the area to visit the Évian/Chamonix region. The owners are friendly, dynamic, and upbeat, and the location feels like you’re spending a nice afternoon at a friend’s low-key vacation home. Homemade desserts are delicious!
They have about 7 items to choose from in small portion sizes. You get 4 choices for about 14 euros, 5 for 15.5 euros (from memory) which is then enough for a decent meal.Pros: will take orders relatively late (past 2PM). Great if you are in a hurry - service was very quick even though the place was full. Food was pretty good.Cons: Only serve food at lunch. No bookings. A bit cramped. Only a couple of desserts to choose from.Note, you might have to share a table with someone else.
Stumbled upon this little gem in the centre of an otherwise grey village on Lake Leman. Small but cozy space complemented by a warm welcome and a smart ambience. The concept of choosing "tapas" to mix-match your own dish is refreshing - and extremely tasty. Everything tasted fresh, notwithstanding the tiny kitchen they had to work from. Certainly worth a visit when in town.
Refined cuisine made with fresh produce served in a family atmosphere. A great place to spend a warm and gourmet moment! Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: €40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: La Chouffe, Suprême de Poulet
