Le Chapon Fin
Throw caution to the wind in a heady interior that demands champagne and oysters. The renowned restaurant that put the 'belle' in Belle Époque. Occasion dining.
In addition to its regional, often lofty, cooking heritage, Bordeaux’s culinary scene has blossomed in the last decade as a new generation of talented chefs from other parts of France and beyond have relocated, attracted by the city’s beauty and relaxed atmosphere. Try these six places; the best, naturally.
Domaine de Raba
Opt for serenity at this Modern French restaurant with a fantastic setting in the parkland gardens of an 18th-century château out of the city centre. Delicious.
L’appArt
Good to know, particularly if you're working in this business neighbourhood. No one could fault you for choosing "chez Nicolas" for a working lunch or dinner.
Le Chien de Pavlov
Give in to the succulent flavours of juicy produce prepared to perfection against a backdrop of understated style combining the modern and a rich heritage.
L’iguane
Michelin's inspectors know that some of Bordeaux's best restaurants lie outside the historic city centre. Learn from them and beat a way to L'iguane's delights.
MILES
If you're a bit of a foodie and enjoy trying the most fashionable places, then this is for you, with the added advantage that it's very friendly and affordable.
