Le Clos des Cours — Restaurant in Saintes

We had dinner inside at Clos de Cours yesterday and absolutely loved it! In France, it’s not always easy to find good vegetarian options, but this place really gets it right – offering both beautifully prepared meat dishes and genuinely tasty vegetarian choices.

A very safe place to come and enjoy a meal out. We will definitely...
