Auberge du Chateau - Biron

Not good enough, very basic food. Meat was semi ok, but vegi’s and patatoe (which seem to come with everything) don’t have much flavour. Icecream was so uneatible that the kids refused to eat it.

Having read the reviews after I had booked, I was not expecting good things. Mine and my sisters birthday experience couldn’t have been further from the experiences of others on TA. The service was lovely, friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and beautifully served,...the price was on a par with others in the area. The only negative was to do with the heat, it was an exceptionally hot day but I feel that could invest in more shade, we were absolutely drenched with sweat by the time we left , it was too much. I will definitely return but in the cooler months of the year

Such a stunning setting, but, food was less than average and the service sadly lacking. No one came to say thank you when we’d finished the meal and paid. Have been here previously and had much better food service, such a shame.

Why do people own or work in the restaurant trade if you don’t like people ? We sat down at around and looked at the menus. The waiter/manager came over and when I asked (in French) whether it was possible for food he replied...sharply....”no fini, food stops at o’clock!” (Hint take the food menus from the tables when you want to shut the kitchen) I asked if we could have a drink and he said yes but then didn’t take our order and turned away. We waited patiently for him to return and take our order but he ignored our attempts at eye contact. After waiting for minutes he did not return to our table and instead proceeded to clear plates from other people, at that point we got up and left. We weren’t the only ones to receive that treatment and raised eyebrows from those eating said it all- must be nice to be able to turn customers away. We went down to the cafe below the chateau (balade gourmond) across the cross road. Very friendly- nice sandwich and a soft drink for

We arrived today for lunch prior to looking round the castle. Although the food was fairly decent, and could have scraped a review, the service was shocking and clearly the young waiter was more interested in serving the locals than tourists. He totally forgot...my sons meal, which eventually came out after I’d finished my burger, not great. We had to ask for the kids drinks twice, as did another table with him serving, and then also the same for the bill after a near on ten minute wait after the first time of asking. The icing on the cake was when he was clearly having a laugh on at us with another couple of french customers. We eat in many restaurants of different levels all over the world, but never had service as bad and disrespectful as today. A real shame as he lets the place down totally.
