Chef Jean-Baptiste Girard, an enthusiastic champion of his region, and his Japanese-born wife, Maiko, have turned this village inn around. Local produce (Charolais beef, organic vegetables, saffron…) and what the chef forages take centre stage on the menu - the wild garlic brioche is simply delicious ! Attentive service and tableware crafted by a local artisan make for a delightful experience.

La Grangée offers modern, refined cuisine blending Japanese influences with local seasonal produce, featuring artistic plating and balanced flavors. Guests frequently praise the warm service and cozy atmosphere, making it suitable for families and special occasions. However, some reviewers note small portion sizes and limited menu choices, often restricted to fixed tasting menus. Concerns also arise regarding unexpected extra charges for items like cheese and a somewhat plain exterior setting. While many find the experience enchanting, others feel the value is questionable given the rigid structure and cost, suggesting diners verify menu details beforehand to manage expectations.
Ideal for diners seeking creative cuisine and warm service, but verify menu structure and extras in advance.

At his Table in the Hôtel du Morvan, chef Jérôme Raymond offers modern cooking based on regional produce. The set menu is inspired by the best of the season’s ingredients, with Charolais beef often a firm favourite. The 400-bin wine list concentrates, rightly so, on Burgundy. Comfortable rooms should you wish to stay longer.

€€Traditional Cuisine
Opposite the Loiseau family’s legendary Côte d’Or restaurant, this handsome 17C edifice is both a supremely comfortable traditional hostelry and a bistro, offering an appetising more casual alternative to its fine dining parent establishment. Here, local and regional recipes take pride of place, such as eggs in a red wine sauce or chicken à la Gaston Gérard. The rotunda dining room, which leads onto a terrace, is the epitome of country chic with old terracotta tiled flooring and a glorious timber ceiling, all of which in an unabashed, full-on Burgundy style.

The initiative by this pair, chef Willy Lardry and maître d' Edwin Smietanski, to open their restaurant here is most welcome. Both hail from Le Creusot but met while working for Yohann Chapuis in Tournus. The interior is inspired in part by nature (with, in particular, wallpaper depicting a forest in the mist). The chef, working alone in the kitchen, shows undeniable maturity. Delicacy and finesse are the order of the day, for example, the lovely courgette flower with cod stuffing and the olive oil sabayon accompanying the cod tournedos, or the mackerel and its marinated cucumber ravioli.

In a picturesque wine-growing Côte de Beaune village, this countrified bistro is piloted by a talented chef. The enticing score, which delves freely and regularly into the bounteous local produce, is as inspired and modern in style as it is exciting: flame-seared confit trout, Brussel sprouts, unpasteurised cream and dill-laced oil; barbecued squid, glazed turnips, umeboshi ‘plums’ and beef-dashi stock… Bouncy, cheerful front-of-house team and a weakness for natural wines.
