Wife had cheese burger and chips and I had the rump steak. No sauces for the rump. Plates arrived and they were plainly plated which for nearly £12 a pop was disappointing. The chips were clearly McDonalds quality and card boardy. My steak was poor quality with lots of gristle and bone. Yes bone. When asked if I was enjoying my meal I politely showed the plate of fat and gristle and also said it had bone in it. His response was it's not my bone. No apology given just a French style shrug of the shoulders and couldn't give a monkeys attitude. Avoid at all costs unless you like to be treated like an idiot. So much for the Dunkirk spirit. Still gave a tip as I believe in good manners.

Burgundian house conforms to expectations and very copied. Great eater, I was back with a simple while they offer up to the triple burger Beautiful terrace. Even fries that are probably frozen are well cooked and are therefore very good.
