Le Bistrot des Clercs - Brasserie Valence

The terrace is gorgeous and the food is pretty good! It's worth having lunch at this bistro 👍🏼

Even though I tend to think of my family as an obnoxious kind of folk I had an extremely pleasant dinner experience at this place. The service was immaculate, always making sure my glass of water was full. The food was making me so happy because it was so delicious. Topped it all off with macarons that took me to the French moon. I will probably never be in this city again but I will certainly never forget this memorable, heavenly dinner.

We arrived 10 to 15 minutes before 12 and we were declined access to the lunch room by a not too nice employee outside when we could have looked at the menu, clean our hands and go to the toilets before they start the service at noon. Eventually we decided to go elsewhere more welcoming.

Best place to eat dinner in Valence! The staff was super friendly, the hostess who welcomed us told us all about the restaurant and her family which gave us a very nice feeling. She spoke english as well. We were with a group of 9 people and we didn’t have a reservation but this wasn’t a problem and they prepared a table for us straight away. Honestly the best place to eat authentic french food, only €32 for a three-course menu.

It started superb, with the owner (at least that is what I thought) welcoming us (in English) and explaining the menu and the specials. However, at the moment she left the staff forgot about us and after the starter, which was 10 out of 10, the waiter asked if we would like to see the menu for a dessert 🤨. So, we kindly reminded them that we were waiting for the main course 😄. The main course was fine and again the staff asked us if we wanted dessert. We were ok and asked for the bill, which took forever. In the end an ok place with good food but there is some room for improvement regarding the staff.

Great restaurant. French classic. You come you eat plenty and for two hours but what a great time to spend ! Perfect service

Fantastic place, devine food and warm welcome from the staff! Strongly recommend

We have been coming here for 20 years, sadly every year the quality of the food and service gets worse and worse. The service was incompetent and verging on rude, and some of the food was no better than in a fast food (but at 3 times the price!) what has happened to this once great restaurant?
