Courtepaille Chartres

Faites Attention!! If you order the set menu for example the Grillardin, you can have a glass of wine for 2 Euros. We ordered two glasses of wine but when we came to pay the bill, we had been charged for more expensive wine. We hadn't seen the bottles so for all we knew, we may have been given the 2 Euro wine. I queried it at the till and the chef just shrugged as if it was our fault. The food was excellent but I am writing this review to warn other diners who might be charged more than the 2 Euros per glass of wine they were expecting. So to be sure of getting the 2 Euros wine which is the offer with the Grillardin menu, you should point to the bottom of the menu where this offer is stated. If you want more expensive wine, ask to see the bottle. The staff seem very nice but the waiter/ chef should have helped us a bit more when I queried this instead of shrugging.

Very good menu on the main courses and a very wide selection. Main courses were all good and but the desserts over promised and under delivered. Tiny portions and not good value. The service from the maitre De on arrival was very good but the young female waitress that served our food was very sullen and miserable.

This is a convenient all-day grill restaurant with parking. We were very kindly received and the service was perfect. A small complementary salad to start, we continued then with different pieces of meat, a mix-grill skewer and a veal steak. Everything was cooked to perfection, it has been a long time since we enjoyed such a nice piece of meat. We didn't enjoy that much the deserts, they seemed very industrial and maybe de-frozen but it is typical in this kind of restaurants so we didn't care that much. We will go back soon for the grill, this is sure.

After being let down by our hotel we had to find an alternative. We ended up at Courtepaille and had a pleasant evening for 50 euros. That was main course, sweet coffees for 2.

After a life threatening trudge over the roads from the ibis we ate a well deserved dinner. Well deserved maybe but well delivered not. Staff were great but the food was average and more expensive than it should have been. €96+TIP for two is really not what you expect from a chain restaurant. In a snow storm with drifts of 2 feet I would be happy to return.but in any other time I will go on.
