    • Le Presbytère, restaurant in the heart of the village of Épargnes, in a green setting, surrounded by the Pineau and Cognac vineyards of the Charentais region. Yannick and Dominique welcome you to a 17th century building, attached to the Saint-Vincent church. Where the atmosphere in the light of candles inspires tranquility to savor the present moment. Terrace on the gardens. Formulas based on fresh and regional products, refined cuisine, come and relax and enjoy a moment of well-being.

      Come and discover our cuisine based on fresh products.

      Coming from local markets, we favor the short circuit and work with local producers. Concerned about the quality of our products, we always check their origin. Sturgeon and meager from the Gironde estuary, asparagus, strawberries, snails, pineau, cognac, find all these local products according to the seasons. Vegetables from the vegetable garden, herbs, salads and fruits from our vegetable garden, eggs from our hens.

      We have planned everything to delight you!

Dominique Charles has an atypical career around the demanding clientele of private jets and luxury villas. She will devote herself to organizing prestigious receptions in Monaco.

      Their love of homemade products and their profession brought them together around this 17th century building in order to be able to pamper their customers.

    Cozy restaurant for a nice romantic dinner or celebrating any event with friends. Lovely menu. It's worth visiting it! Highly recommended. Updated February 2023: Beautiful place for a wedding. Decor, florist services, a wedding cake and of course catering can be provided here by the team.

    Restaurant is in a pretty village. Went to a barn dance there and it was fantastic. Great entertainment, great fun and superb food. Drinks were cheap too and in the back of the visit found a new wine shop (after drinking the wine all night)! Will definitely be going back next weekend for lunch or dinner. Update: Went back for lunch on Saturday. We had the €39 per head set menu and the only way to describe the meal is fantastic. The carpacchio Maigret d'esturie popped with flavour, the steak was cooked perfectly, the vegetables were fresh and crunchy and the crumble desert was superb. One of THE best meals we've had in France. They also do a la carte and a €49 set menu and I'd be surprised if they were any less spectacular. We will definitely be going back whenever we're in France.

    The Presbytere restaurant is one of the best restaurants in the region. If you're visiting the Gironde river estuary, I highly recommend stopping here for lunch or dinner. It's located away from the coastal tourist traps and will take you back in time when French cuisine was at its zenith. Warm welcome, rich decor, and an elegant dining room create a stage for the exquisite and inventive cuisine that is changed according to the seasons. Our group of 4 (American, Swiss, Danish and French) was also impressed that they serve local products. The head chef, M. Prunier oversees a young dynamic team and we enjoyed discovering each dish which were like small masterpieces. We're looking forward to returning !
