This restaurant is housed in a converted 19C coaching inn opposite the medieval castle. A tight-knit chef and sommelier duo are at the helm, pooling their gourmet skills. The chef carefully prepares local ingredients and freshly caught fish to create mouth-watering dishes, such as Roi Rose de Touraine pork, perfectly confit, packed with sweet and savoury flavours and served with delicious pak choi steamed then flash-seared over a flame. As you will see, there's a lot of work involved; apart from the wonderful bread from the local baker, everything from the amuse-bouche to the dessert is beauti

Le Favori - Les Sources de Cheverny
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€€
In the heart of a wooded estate, this venue sets the scene for a culinary experience that is both delicate and daring under the auspices of Pierre Frindel, formerly at Sources de Caudalie. The chef delicately crafts local and less local produce, deploying his consummate skill and subtle creativity. Each dish strikes an accomplished, harmonious balance between tradition and modernity, depicted by a breast of Bresse poultry, melt-in-the-mouth aubergine, smoked caviar and crunchy confit leg, underscored by a saffron jus, or by John Dory in nasturtium oil. Spot-on cooking, elegant plating and a di

Just opposite their former establishment, Alice and Alexis Letellier are writing a new chapter at Granica. In a stylish, modern setting whose raftered ceiling bears witness to the premises’ former vocation as a barn, the couple is going from strength to strength in their new HQ. The chef deftly crafts a delicate, spot-on score in which premium ingredients are subtly garnished with fresh garden herbs. A set, several-course menu, razor-precision cooking, full-bodied gravies and sauces and elegant plating set the scene. Alice, your sommelier and in charge of the front of house, plies diners with

Fleur de Sel
Modern Cuisine · Bib
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

With a name that conjures up springtime (it means "bunch of asparagus"), this restaurant delivers delicious cuisine, showcasing local producers and winegrowers as well as herbs from its pretty garden in aesthetically pleasing dishes. At the helm is a professional couple and a chef with a solid track record, Stéphane Bureau – he loves to pop out into the dining area and share his enthusiasm with diners. The comfortable interior is done out in a contemporary bistro style.

En Tandem

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 a picture postcard medieval village overlooking the River Cher, this eatery, located in an outhouse of the castle of Saint-Aignan, sports a contemporary bistro vibe beneath an attractive timber ceiling.

Le Bistrot de la Caillère
Modern Cuisine
Ideally located for anyone visiting the châteaux of the Loire, this inn is firmly rooted in its era. It is run by an enterprising couple, who work and live in harmony with the bucolic landscape of forests and meadows. The original 18C farmhouse has been replaced by a modern building – modern like chef Éric Rialland's cuisine. His well-thought-out bistronomy dishes follow the seasons and oscillate between creativity and tradition. Pleasant terrace for fine weather.
