Moulins de la vergne - Pons

Here for several nights as ideal for access to pons and saintes. the owners and the staff were very friendly and the restaurant was very nice. they can sit outside near the river and soak in the atmosphere. we had a small inflatable boot and could start it from the website, but the flow was quite weedy and we had to look for two in the water

We live 100 meters from this place so sad that eating is no longer good, we have eaten many times here in the last few years, but tonight for 10 euro for very average moule and quite terrible fritzen we will not rushing...back!

Really nice people very relaxed and eat nice enjoyed it the camping place look tired but actually very comfortable restaurant beautiful and better than the others we looked at

I can't believe the other reviews ! We were met on the terrace and asked if we would like a large or a small bottle of Perrier when I asked for a small one was told he only had large when it came...it was Badoit he said it was the same thing had bubbles. Our friends then arrived and we had a menu forced on us with pressure to order. We did and went into the restaurant to find it waiting on the table no water, no napkins until asked for. My seafood starter was wet to say the least when he was asked if it was frozen most definitely not was the reply it came out of a tin this was the daily special (not). The carpaccio of beef was OK I understand, the other 2 starters were mediocre at best. Mains were fine and desserts were ok. A trip to the WC revealed no WC paper and no hand towels when I asked the same young Dutch chap he replied he wouldnt know if he wasn't told snippy back when I remarked maybe he should check periodically. Overall quite a grotty experience and if the meals were prepared by a properly trained chef I'm the Dutchman !! Won;t be back even though we live locally.

The reason to come to this place is the atmosphere created by the staff, and the enthusiasm of the multilingual Portuguese chef, Marco, and his assistant, Carlos. Caspar a complete extrovert runs the show and has two delightful young bar staff Uri...and Shannon. The clientele are principally Dutch and English, but the local French are there in good numbers, which is a real recommendation. I live near this place and visit it frequently drop in for a drink and find out when they have the best meal deals. Quiz on Friday evenings.
