Auberge la Gaillotiere
About
Located in the vineyards of Château‑Thébaud in the Loire‑Atlantique countryside, Auberge la Gaillotière offers a welcoming French bistro that celebrates regional terroir. Family‑run since 2021, the restaurant earned a Bib Gourmand in the Michelin Guide and creates seasonal menus using home‑grown vegetables, local cheeses and a curated selection of Loire wines. Diners can experience the rustic charm inside the main dining room or al fresco beside the greenhouse garden, while the spacious terrace and pet‑friendly patio invite guests of all ages to enjoy the fragrant surroundings. Meals are served from 12 o’clock on Tuesdays to Saturdays, with lunch at 18 € and dinner specials ranging from 24 € to 37 € per person. The menu features classic “déjeuner grignotage” choices, “menu à l’auberge” plates, vegetarian options, weekend brunches at 41 € for adults, and an array of take‑away selections. Each dish reflects the auberge’s commitment to sustainability, sourcing ingredients from the on‑farm orchard, local herb growers and nearby vineyards. Beyond the kitchen, the auberge’s picturesque setting provides an idyllic backdrop for leisurely walks, wine tastings and local events. It’s the go‑to destination for couples seeking a romantic dinner, families looking for wholesome meals that cater to children, wine enthusiasts eager to explore regional vintages, and travelers who appreciate a blend of hospitality, delicious food and the tranquil beauty of the Loire vineyards.
