Courtepaille - Châlons-en-Champagne

En route home from the Alps on Red Saturday, the family needed cheering up. This was ideal. A good, filling meal, excellent service and we were in before 18.30 so had the pick of the tables. It quickly filled up by 19.00 and was clearly popular with locals.

We visited twice to this restaurant, the first evening we were quite early and were the first people in the restaurant. The staff were great and our food was prepared just as we ordered. The second evening we had already visited a local restaurant but the service was terrible so we walked out. So we revisited this restaurant again to be greeted in the same way as the previous evening and the service and food was just perfect. Cannot fault it al all. Many thanks to the staff

We had been driving from Dunkirk all day and Chalons-en-Champagne was to be our stop over on the way to Provence. So anyway, we were rather tired when we got here and decided at around 4pm to just pop into this Courtepaille. We've been in them before (Lille) and know the type of place they are. Anyway, it must have been the funny time as we were the only one there. The server must have been really nervous as she either dropped a bottle or a glass every time she served us. I had the Sausages which were raw inside and my wife couldn't eat the Gammon (like the sole of my shoe). We beat a hasty retreat

Well but few choices on the map for some otherwise correct menus overall.

Friendly welcome, we ate well, it was pretty good but waiting was endless. The poor waiters and cooks were too little for the number of visitors. Otherwise the place is nice and it goes well when you're in a group.
