Restaurants
Le Cheval Blanc in Bléré. I once stayed in the hotel which was delightful - I had a light airy room which made me think of spring! The hotel and restaurant has since changed hands - so I need to revisit it and find out whether it is still as good as it was!
L’Hostellerie du Château de l’Isle in Civray de Touraine, just outside Bléré. A small chateau in its own grounds, it's actually a small hotel with a very nice restaurant. In summer the doors of the dining room can be thrown open to offer almost outdoor dining.
La Roseraie in Chenonceaux is one of our favourite addresses: good food and very friendly service. During the summer it's possible to eat outside in their courtyard - if you book early enough!
La Presbytère, 1 Rue Thomas Pactius, Loches, was recommended by some of our visitors in 2010. I can’t find a web site for it but the ‘phone number is +33 247 596 525.
Agnes Sorel in Genillé
Château de Pray, Route De Charge, Amboise
Auberge de la Treille, 2 Rue D’Amboise, Saint Martin-Le-Beau
Le Bon Laboureur, 6 Rue du Dr. Bretonneau, Chenonceaux
La Sarrazine, 21 Rue Du Pont, Bléré
Le Boeuf Coronne, 11 Rue Paul-Louis-Courier, Bléré
Hostellerie De La Renaudiere, 24 Rue du Dr. Bretonneau, Chenonceaux
Le Cheval Rouge, 30 Rue Nationale, Chisseaux
Le Saint Honore, 10 Place P.L.-Courier, Veretz - this looks really good: we have been driving past it (to and from Tours) for many years and it’s high time we stopped and tried it!
If you want to go in search of other restaurants, then you might be able to find some ideas on L’Internaute.
