"Fast and friendly service near the beautiful clock tower! We stopped in just before closing time and the servers were happy to accommodate us. The wine and cheese plate were good portions, fairly priced and delivered quickly. Bathrooms were clean and available. Would recommend!"
Jasmine Dozlaw
"Had the best meal after walking from the train station and all around the town. Pizza was fresh, substantial and delicious. I am still thinking about the passion-pineapple iced tea (The Glacé), wishing I had the recipe- one of the most flavorful and refreshing beverages I’ve ever had in my life; barely sweet yet full of tropical flavor.
Had to do finish my meal with the luxurious latte! Wonderful staff!!"

All You Need To Know About Day Tripping to St. Emilion Without A Tour Guide!
For breakfast, we stopped at the only restaurant that was open at 9:00 a.m., Le Bistrot du Clocher, located, not surprisingly, just below the Clock Tower!. We ordered Le Formule Petit Déjeuner for €11,00/person, which included an express beverage, coffee, or hot chocolate, orange juice, a croissant, a piece of baguette and butter and jam. Not the most economical, but certainly not the worst in St. Émilion.
