We stayed at a nearby hotel in Chateauroux so we could go here. It was quite busy at 8pm on a Tuesday in September. We were ushered into the posher restaurant side (there only seemed to be male truckers in the brasserie). We thought we 'd go upmarket a bit with the EUR31 menu. We had snail and foie gras starters, no problem, plus a pichet of local red (cheap but freezing).

Have just submitted the review for the l'escale against the courtpaille by accident. The escale is brilliant a mix of relais, bistro and restaurant in one building. Food. Service and value were all excellent. Large choice on the menu plus an a la carte. Just off the motorway so easy to find Will definitely be back.
Fair place, good fresh and home made French food. The menu of the day was varied and service very helpful. Next time we will take more time to review our order as we rushed through the menu, but all choices were good.
