Table d'hôtes at a l'Epoque
Join us at the Table d'hôtes
In the evening, if you’d like, you’re welcome to join us for the table d’hôtes. We’ll all sit together at the long table in our former goat barn—now a cozy dining room with a view of the garden. It’s a warm, informal evening and a lovely addition to your stay at A l’Epoque.
The table d’hôtes in the French countryside is perhaps the best part of a stay with us. No menu, no rush, no formalities. Just good food prepared with care, at a pace that suits you.
Max prepares everything himself, using fresh ingredients from local suppliers and herbs from our own garden. The menu changes every evening, depending on the season and what’s available at the market.
Dinner usually begins around 7:00 p.m. with an aperitif or amuse-bouche, followed by a three-course meal. When the weather is nice, we sometimes eat outside on the terrace. During dinner, we’re happy to share our tips about the area, and you’ll hear stories from other guests.
Our 3-course menu costs €24 per person, not including drinks. The table d’hôtes is available by reservation. Please let us know at least two days in advance if you’d like to join us for dinner. If you have any dietary restrictions, please let us know three days in advance. You can also find answers to practical questions about this on our FAQ page.
Local produce and own garden
We deliberately choose short lines. Our vegetables and herbs come from our own garden whenever possible, supplemented by products from the local market. The cheeses are French, the bread fresh, the wine from the region. No imports, no rushing – just honest products that taste good.
This is also what our guests often mention in their reviews: the food feels personal, made with care. Not like a restaurant, but an evening where you are truly welcome.
Our tip: combine with 2 nights
With a one-night stay, you’re mostly just arriving and leaving. With a two-night stay, you’ll have time to truly unwind: a quiet evening at the table, a lovely day exploring the region, and a leisurely breakfast to top it off. Be sure to check out our “slow stay” packages.
Tip for a real mini-vacation: stay for 2 nights and combine a relaxing day exploring the area with a cozy evening at the table d’hôtes. Then check out our rooms and rates.
