In the heart of a picturesque village in the Cher valley, close to the Château de Chenonceau, this friendly, contemporary bistro treats diners to fresh seasonal cuisine curated by a talented chef. Mickaël Renard honed his skills in top establishments of the likes of the Hostellerie de Levernois (at the time of Jean Crotet), the Côte d'Or in Saulieu (alongside Bernard Loiseau) and the Auberge des Templiers. Today: tataki of bonito, bulgur, avocado purée and curcuma-flavoured Caesar sauce; steak with Cajun sauce, baby potatoes and button mushrooms. The regulars know that the menu changes frequen

Château de Pray

Upstream from Amboise, on the south bank of the Loire, this medieval castle with two massive towers, remodelled during the Renaissance, cannot fail but catch the eye. The edifice peacefully presides over vast formal grounds and staunchly upholds the Loire’s gracious art de vivre. The orangery, part of which is built into the rocky hillside, is the epitome of elegant, and on sunny days it is a treat to sit on the pleasant terrace overlooking the gardens. Chef Arnaud Philippon's cuisine flirts with the zeitgeist: pressed young goat and foie gras, pied bleu mushrooms, wild garlic and mango and co

Auberge du Bon Laboureur

Housed in a converted coaching inn built in 1786, this centennial family-run restaurant focuses on seasonal ingredients. Chef Antoine Jeudi certainly knows his stuff. Thanks to the small kitchen garden, there is always a veggie-strong set menu. A picturesque backdrop, delicious food and a fine wine list – what more could you want?

Les Arpents

Not far from the château, this contemporary bistro nestled behind a traditional burgundy-coloured façade makes an impression! Two old friends, who met at Tours hospitality management school, rustle up a flawless culinary experience, delving freely into the abundance of first-rate local produce available, from asparagus and strawberries in season to Roi Rose pork and goat's cheese. Dishes that taste as delicious as they sound include roasted scallops, cauliflower and vanilla oil; or lemon tart sprinkled with dried black lemon, a wickedly tempting detail that makes this dessert irresistible.

Auberge de Montpoupon

A friendly inviting inn established at the foot of the castle of Montpoupon. The interior sports a fashionable patchwork of rustic (bare stone and beams) and contemporary details, while the menu takes you on a gourmet tour of the Val de Loire’s succulent produce. Prices that make sense and a terrace with a view of the castle.

A close team – Aurélie in the kitchen and Marie front of house – welcome you. They chose to set up their restaurant in this small medieval town on the banks of the Cher, nestled at the foot of the ruins of Montrichard Fortress. In a space with a modern bistro aesthetic, albeit with a rustic touch, they serve up a menu that showcases seasonal and, above all, local produce – mushrooms from the immediate vicinity, Roi Rose de Touraine pork – prepared with generosity and flair. Attentive and dynamic service is the icing on the cake.

In this former coaching inn on the banks of the Loire, you can enjoy the modern cuisine of chef Jean-François Beauduin, who learned the ropes in starred establishments. His tempting menu abounds in seasonal, local produce and stars a wonderful culinary lineup of dishes such as roast pollock, carrot greens and confit ginger. It would be a crime not to sample the soufflé flambéed in cognac with vanilla ice cream on the side. The menu also features a number of more traditional local dishes, like a “beuchelle tourangelle” (creamed kidneys and sweetbreads). Gracious service by the chef's wife, in a

Les Closeaux

Under the Ancien Régime, Les Closeaux – set in a 10ha estate – was used as a hunting lodge by the kings of France. Nowadays, this farmhouse inn remains as secluded as ever in a bucolic setting surrounded by greenery. The chef, who champions local producers and is a proponent of short supply chains, creates delicious market-fresh cuisine at affordable prices: loin of saithe, green beans, black rice, tomato, parsley and shallot; apricot and peach puff pastry, apricot ice cream. Lovely terrace.
