La Reine Hortense - Cauterets

A fabulous experience!! The view is amazing, the food is typically french, local and delicious. The welcome is friendly. It is a long walk up or a off road drive. Either is well worth it!!

Indeed, the second degree is of misery, as well as respect for the country that welcomes us. But how happy this moment of sharing with other tables and the server!!! It's rare when time is suspended. I hope other people will find themselves in this same time out of time. Reminiscent of these a few hours over Cauterêts; a parenthesis in time.

Perfect place to spend an excellent evening in an authentic restaurant and away from the village (1h climb pedal)

Do not look for another restaurant if you want to spend an authentic time in an old chalet with original campagnard décor with paintings on the walls dating from 1941. But it is necessary to access it on foot or by car from a road of more than 2km without tar. The boss and his daughter who were in service this day of 22/12 made us spend a very pleasant time with our dog because they are allowed. The menu has 37€ is challenging any competition and you will not be able to go to the end of your plates despite the hunger I had that day. entrance with a smoked trout salad from the region, dish: terracotta beef rib with succulent wood fire accompanied by sauté potatoes with salad ceps and small peppers, plates of 4 agricultural cheeses and dessert a Catalan torch. Please exist and continue to make this hot place that is not a tourist catch that you can easily find on the hill of the other or in the center of cauterets.

Very good food. Very well mentioned to the cuisto. Friendship and welcoming. warm atmosphere atypical place, which deserves to be mounted.
