Le Bistrot d'à Côté

Selected by the Michelin Guide since 2019 and awarded a Bib Gourmand in 2025, Le Bistrot d'à Côté draws on travel, discovery, sharing and exchange for its plates. Its evening formulas change every two months, and the restaurant’s combination of seasonal sourcing and Michelin recognition defines an approachable yet refined concept. Situated in the city centre of Clermont-Ferrand, the dining room is welcoming with subtle decoration and a dimmed, intimate atmosphere; the room features an open kitchen visible to guests. The kitchen executes French bistronomic cooking with colorful plates accentuated by original, subtle flavor pairings. A short, season-driven menu composed exclusively of seasonal products is updated regularly to reflect the produce. Valentin Chambonnière (Head Chef) orchestrates an authentic, generous menu. Specialties include a weekly-changing lunch formula, evening prix fixe menus at 35€ and 43€, a curated wine list from vignerons featuring organic, biodynamic and natural wines, and a cocktail bar with around 100 spirit references and bartender creations.
