Other people seem to have enjoyed a good experience in this bistrot, not so in our case where my daughter was ripped off 18 euros for a cheese salad. OK so there were 5 cheeses on a board, but none was bigger than bite-sized. Her boy friend who lives in Thuir also adversely commented on the price of the wine compared with other establishments on the same street. Nice idea spreading horseradish in a hotdog baguette and the staff were friendly enough but Verquin has some way to go before it catches up with the reputation of the Café Bleu which preceded it on this site.Hello,I am sorry to hear your disapointmentWe don't serve any cheese plate at 18â¬, but 12 ⬠with local condiments, fresh bread and a salad besideAll our affined cheeses come from "La voie lactée" in Thuir, wich is a well known specialist, cheeses are bought around 35 to 45â¬/kgWe don't sell any wine from bag in box, only bottle from the best winemakers around, price start at 3â¬/glassWe kept part of Café bleu's team in kitcheen, they were using only frozen food and ready-made industrial food, we don't at allOnce again, I am very sorry for your daughter's experience and we will be pleased to see you again to share our commitment in good products onlyBest regards

...is having Sunday lunch at Cortie , after mass [messe] at the nearby church. Meals on other days are also good.After living here for a year and done the restaurant rounds for quality, quantity and cost I find Cortie to be the best.A pensioner must consider all three points.Reception to all, I've noticed, is always a welcoming smile.The Proprietor, Francois, speaks excellent English. Food is well presented and cooked to order.The hors-d'oeuvre is a self service affair; good selection of tasty morsels. If feeling like a piggy you can have another helping. What's the rush. Enjoy.For a particular main course the perpetrator of the '' Horrible!'' review, I've just read, moves me to comment on the Chicken a la Catalane. The sauce is thick, dark and rich with a mix of veg that can't be found in tin.To put the record straight , ref the ''Horrible'' person's poor sense of awareness [ or deliberate lies ] of what surrounds him/her.... The tiny room [reduit ] does not exist , nor does the existence of waste bins and cartons. Yes there is a room alongside the terrace, which contains a long table, etc. for staff refreshment use only, outside business hours. The ''Horrible'' idiot must have, in error, turned into the local decheterie and instead of 'Cortie' read 'Loti' [as in 'mal loti', meaning badly off which I would translate as 'on the nose']. Enough said.From a Welshman who loves his French food.

Petite restauration de qualité, assiettes composées froides, produits locaux en saison, ardoises de fromages et de charcuteries toute l'année, ouverture "hors saison" du vendredi au dimanche midi et vendredi, samedi soir sur réservation avec une carte cha
We dropped into the private courtyard during very hot day as a respite from the 38degree temperature. The menu is limited but excellent. The Catalane salad or the other 2 on offer were presented beautifully and the meats, hams etc.. were top quality. The small shop selling artistic curios is also worth a visit. This is a great place to drop into for some quality local produce in a truly fantastic location.

Fantastically located restaurant in the picture postcard village of Castelnou, in the shadows of the chateau and overlooking the valley.Lunch here on sunny (but windy!) afternoon.The food was modest, not exceptional in any way. Service was fine. Prices reasonable.Would recommend for the location alone.
Le lieu est agréable, l'ambiance sympathique.Nous y retournerons avec la famille.Le menu est savoureux : escalibada ou gaspacho (petit bémol pour le lard dans le gaspacho) le cochon ou le poisson cuit dans une feuille de vigne bio (heureusement par les temps qui courent) dessert bras de vénus ou padoa (flan)
