    • L'escale is Martrou's dining bar set up in the old post house called "Auberge de la Malle-Poste" in Échillais, a stone's throw from the Pont du Transbordeur opposite Rochefort.

      A true haven of peace on the banks of the Charente, this beautifully restored 18 th century building welcomes you on the terrace or in its warm rooms to recharge your batteries with friends, family or alone, whether you pass by on foot, by bike or by car.

      L'escale offers drinks and seasonal snacks made from fresh, local produce (cheese, cold meats and vegetarian platters, seasonal dishes, sweet and savory waffles, homemade desserts).

      Cultural and thematic events are scheduled throughout the year (exhibitions, concerts, games, etc.).

      The place can be privatized for business meals, family events (birthdays, retirements, passing exams, etc.), with the possibility of musical accompaniment.

    Very frankly disappointed on this May Day. Uninteresting menu (hard-boiled eggs, sausages...), nothing was good... The pompom: the bouquet of wilted lily of the valley on the counter!!! I live in Échillais, I won't come back, too bad!!!. .

    We know we eat well, the place is nice but we won't come back. Residents of Echillais, we are customers of this nice little bar/restaurant. Yesterday I called to book, there was obviously no problem except when I announced that there were 13 of us (and I specified 6 adults and 7 children). Without even asking me the timetable, I was told that it was full. My husband calls 15 minutes later to make reservations for 13 adults and there is no problem, the restaurant is no longer full????? What a great mentality!!!!! Our children are well behaved and even if they don't drink alcohol, they consume and eat! So dear customers of this restaurant know that you will be calm because the owner selects his reservations carefully! For families it is obviously worth going your way!
