La Chaumiere — Restaurant in Accra

We ended up going to this place after an event so we were all looking forward to having a good meal. We decided to sit at the rooftop lounge so we can enjoy some cocktails. The music was so loud that we can hardly talk to each other without shouting. The place was empty and we cannot get a proper service because all of the servers have congregated on one side, oblivious to their few guests. The food menu alone took them 15 mins to bring and brought 1 set for a party of 7. For such a group in an almost empty place, you would expect people will constantly check on us or at least would be on close by but no, we had to constantly grab their attention or sometimes walk towards the bar to get any service. It took us more than an hour to finally eat and the food came no serviettes, no silverware were served. When the food came, some of it was cold and mine tasted terrible that I hardly touch it after 2 bites. I heard that the food is supposed to be good but the whole experience was an utter disappointment. The waiters were rude and clueless and to add insult to the injury, they billed us unnecessarily for some items we did not order/consume that it took us another 20 minutes to settle the 'mistake'.

Yes, times are hard and most businesses have been brought to their knees but dishonesty is not the way to bounce back.

Maybe dining downstairs might be a different experience but I would rather not come back here nor...

This is a small classy restaurant tucked away into a small by-lane off the arterial Liberation Road bang opposite the Shangri La Hotel (Shangri La ownership has changed so maybe the name has also changed). The classiness of the place is reflected by the class of the cars in the parking lot where one can find a number of Beemers,Jags, Mercs and premium SUV's. The bar on the left of the entry is well stocked with spirits though I feel that their wines are better and premium quality. The food is French Mediterranean and the service is professional and efficient. thye servers are well trained and can give good recommendations depending on one's preferences. I can recommend the beef fillet steak, which was succulent and juicy, or the tiger prawns in a Mediterranean sauce, I have also enjoyed a delicious fish fillet. The accompaniments like the potato au gratin,various sauces etc are also high quality, but I thoroughly enjoyed the cauliflower au gratin. It's a bit pricey but meets the budget for a business lunch or dinner or for those special...

I tried La Chaumière for the first time, it's a French Mediterranean Restaurant around the Airport Residential Area. Almost my first time I will go to a restaurant and I will be served Olive , Groundnut and Hot Baguette as complimentary till my food is ready. That alone captured my heart about this restaurant. My starter was Soupe à l'oignon, gratinée ( Gratinated onion soup ) 😍. Second starter was Soufflé au fromage ( Cheese soufflé ) My main , Emincé de poulet à la crème et aux tomates séchées ( chicken breast with cream et sun dried tomatoes ) also main Sole rôtie à l'ail ( Baked sole fish with garlic ). I love their services and hospitality. Everything I ordered was to share with my wife and the chef was so thoughtful to share our orders in separate plates and it was so filling. We both loved it and had a good time and moments to remember forever. This is a typical French Restaurant with the deco , paintings...
