Cafe Du Port - Bourg

Cafe on the roundabout- by river and parking. I found it called La Bourgade ... usually have umbrellas and tables outside. Great spot for cafe and...

I was so impressed with the food and service at this bar! Seriously some of the best food during my time in France! I didn't eat that giant steak but had to post it!

Went here Wed 8/6/16.Got there just after nine in the evening.After about ten to fifteen minutes,the admittedly busy waitress took our drinks order,and whilst doing so saw my wife looking at the menu.After about another ten to fifteen minutes of trying to get her attention to order a meal,she finally approached and when 3 to 4 metres from our table asked loudly what we wanted. I replied in my best French that we'd like to order. This appeared to upset her and she asked us again loud enough so that the whole restaurant stopped eating,downed their knives and forks and watched my humiliation.I tried to ask her for the meals we were after,she then just shouted at me in fast French something to the effect of they were no longer taking food orders.She then stormed off.I went in and paid the 13 Euro's for my beer (that I'd only had a couple of sips from) and my wife's fizzy water.As I was at the bar the chef was bringing out some main courses and the waitress was laying up some desserts.We left straight away.It's hard to describe how humiliating it was given that my French is quite poor.She could have politely informed me they weren't taking food orders. There was no justification for doing it so provocatively in front of a restaurant full of people.Would I have been treated differently if I'd been French? Probably.I've been traveling for 25 years and she's the most deliberately rude person I've ever seen in a customer facing role.Never got to taste the food.

The outdoor seating has a nice of the river. The staff does not speak English. Our waitperson was young and may have felt uncomfortable dealing with nonFrench speakers. She did not present us the board with the evening's specials.I had a steak, fries and salad. Nicely prepared. My wife had an interesting local dish which was a soft cheese covered with a lot of small pieces of ham and heated in a covered metal pot. She didn't care much for it. I thought it good when placed on bread.We both thought the house rose wine was on the rough side.

Nice find when running late for lunch hour and many other places would have said no. It was an interesting place to sit and watch the local characters .They also have a pool table.The owners/servers were very nice and I had an excellent salad.
