Café Du Beaujolais — Restaurant in Villefranche-sur-Saône

It was such a nice surprise! Totally recommend to all who like some simplicity and authenticity of French cuisine and atmosphere in a village. For us a tourist who lives in the Netherlands, this is a perfect place for stop over for a long journey to South of France ( Côte de Azur )

Somehow we manage our French (very little) But luckily enough we met this man Eliás who helped us order our food. I think his a friend of the owner of this bistro.

Pour notre part nous nous étions arrêtés pour boire un verre, mais à la vue des produits servis aux autres clients, nous avons opté pour une planche de charcuterie et fromages à partager. Pour info, le très bon fromage proposé vient du fromager voisin de l’établissement, chez lequel nous avons ensuite fait nos emplettes.. Alors tout ça pour dire, itinérants et locaux, n’hésitez pas, vous serez très...
