This institution lives on under the stewardship of a young couple who came here from La Mirande (Avignon): chef Yoan Delorme and head waiter Cellia Baudelier. The chef dreams up tasty, precise and imaginative dishes, such as tartlet in the style of a pissaladière with its anchovy pieces, bacon and onion mousse, and a fresh salad of green beans, chard, chervil, tarragon and coriander, or pig's knuckle and a salad of grilled corn with lemon, fermented mustard seeds, preserved lemon paste and creamy polenta.

From one year to the next and from one location to another, local chef-owner Michaël Ruat has been regaling the lucky diners of Puy-en-Velay. The interior sports natural materials and designer details (glazed wine cellar). The food forges a culinary course between regional Haute Loire ingredients (green lentils, Fin Gras du Mézenc beef) and a very modern repertoire of dishes (bluefin tuna, grilled watermelon and feta, sauce vierge and chorizo Bellota).

This beautifully restored old barn has retained its homely rustic appeal. The chef, whose CV boasts establishments of the calibre of Jacques Maximin and La Grenouillère, conjures up delicate traditional fare. The organic local (Aurillac) beef is sometimes carved in front of diners, as are some fish. The menu includes home-made patés and saucisson and a splendid cheese trolley. Let’s not forget the open fire in winter and the inviting terrace in summertime. What’s not to like?

Le Bistrot de Justin pays tribute to the grandfather of chef Aurélien Vidal (that's him in the mural). Justin and Odette Vidal opened a buvette (bar, café, restaurant all in one) on the village square in 1954, which has since morphed into this friendly, inviting bistro. Enjoy indulgent and hearty traditional cuisine that is reasonably priced and draws on the local terroir. Rest assured: the pâté en croûte, which can also be found on the fine dining menu, is still a mainstay on the menu!
