    Nice location and venue but poor quality food! In our experience, the kitchen lacked true French culinary know-how and not really French cooking..

    Lovely atmosphere and great service. We came for the Raclette so I’m unable to comment on the other food quality, but the raclette was wonderful, served properly and hugely satisfying!

    Le Vieux Comptoir is a lovely restaurant. The welcome is always warm, the service is friendly & good, the food is delicious. I have been going for several years & it never disappoints. It feels like a special place. I highly recommend you pay a visit.

    By far the best French restaurant in town, real French kir royal, followed by an amazing goat cheese salad and proper beef bourguignon, real French cream brûlée, and magnificent wine list, service was simply the best, very warm welcome.

    A very mixed experience and not one I'd want to repeat. The wine was good, and good value, but some of the food was disappointing at best. The quiche was beautifully made, but the steak tartare was a bad choice and we couldn't eat it. The tarte tatin was delicious, but ruined by a smoke alarm going off above the neighbouring table. The staff ignored it completely and eventually the diners climbed onto a chair to turn it off. Very bizarre!! The manager Laurent didn't like my asking why no one had bothered about the alarm going off and was really rude to me. I was pleased to leave. I don't like posting bad reviews as people work really hard in these places. But what could be a cute warm basement wine bar was damp, cold and badly run.

    Restaurant was cold and dead. The food was rubbish in the most average way possible. Surly head waitress. Crap.
