Raclette, far from the Alps but close to the ocean

Nouvelle-Aquitaine has vineyards, beaches and ducks, but no raclette mountains. No matter: from Bordeaux to Limoges, restaurants melt the wheel all winter. We have picked places that talk about raclette on their own website, from the cheese bar to the lakeside bistro.

Many only serve raclette in the cold season, often from October to March or April. Some keep it for certain evenings, others ask for a minimum number of guests. Check the conditions on the restaurant’s website and book, especially at the weekend.

1. Le Bistrot du Lac, Bruges: all-you-can-eat raclette, bistronomy style

By the lake, on the Bruges side, Le Bistrot du Lac changes costume with the seasons: brazier in summer, raclette in winter. Its website says it without detours: “In winter, our all-you-can-eat raclette honours French traditions”. The cheeses are selected by a master cheesemaker, with wild garlic, Espelette pepper or truffle versions. The raclette is on the “Gourmands” menu on Friday and Saturday evenings, by reservation. What we take away: an all-you-can-eat raclette that leaves the beaten track, with flavoured cheeses.

2. La Meule du Berger, Bordeaux: the Savoyard on rue Saint-Rémi

On rue Saint-Rémi, La Meule du Berger shows its colours from the title of its website: “Savoyard restaurant Bordeaux / raclette / fondue”. The website is short but clear on the essentials. The restaurant opens in the evening from 6:45 pm, every day except Wednesday, and at lunchtime from Friday to Sunday. To book, you have to call from 6:45 pm: the website specifies that reservations made through the Uniiti platform are not taken into account. What we take away: an old-school address, where you book by phone, like at a mountain refuge.

3. Baud et Millet, Bordeaux: raclette with the cheese fanatics

Baud et Millet presents itself as “THE Infinitely Cheesy restaurant”, no less. On rue Huguerie, the house focuses on wine and cheese pairings, with a traditional house fondue to share between two. The raclette, however, has to be earned: the website specifies “Raclette by reservation only, for groups of at least 10 people”. For smaller parties, there is still the takeaway raclette platter, to order on the website. What we take away: the ideal address for a big table of devoted cheese lovers, provided you gather ten friends and book.

4. Gaztak, Agen: all-you-can-eat raclette at the cheese bar

Gaztak is a cheese bar in central Agen, on rue Voltaire. All winter long, it serves its raclette “like in the mountains, in the middle of Agen”. Cheese, potatoes and condiments are unlimited, with one portion of cold cuts included. Two versions: the authentic machine with its half-wheel from 2 people, or the small candle-heated machine from 1 person. The raclette is served from October to April, Tuesday to Saturday from 6 pm, and can be ordered without cold cuts. What we take away: the unlimited half-wheel, even for a solo dinner.

5. La Plancha, Angoulême: all-you-can-eat raclette when winter comes

On place du Palet, La Plancha has made a specialty of all-you-can-eat cooking. In summer it is moules frites and tartares; the website then announces: “And in winter: all-you-can-eat raclettes and fondues.” The menu shows a raclette “depending on the season”, with cheeses, cold cuts and potatoes. The restaurant also offers fondues, tapas and a locally brewed IPA beer. What we take away: a generous address in the heart of Angoulême, for those who like not counting the rounds of raclette.

6. La Yaute, Aytré: melty evenings and wheel raclette

In Aytré, on the edge of La Rochelle, La Yaute cultivates the spirit of the Alps on the Atlantic shore. Its melty evenings, on Friday nights and the first Saturday of the month, offer “all-you-can-eat raclette evenings, fondue and Alpine specialties”. The evening menu runs from 18 September to the end of March. To be sure of getting the wheel raclette, you have to reserve the machine: only six per service. On the third Saturday of the month, raclette goes with a blind test. What we take away: all-you-can-eat raclette, and even a quiz between rounds.

7. Le Saisonnier, Niort: farm raw-milk raclette

Le Saisonnier, in Niort, names its suppliers on its website. The raclette cheese comes from a fruitière cooperative in the Jura, in Plasnes: a “farm raw-milk raclette”, as the house puts it. The raclette is served with 250 g of cheese per person, with 24-month Serrano ham, Iberian chorizo and gherkins. A veggie version replaces the cold cuts with roasted butternut squash and mushrooms. The specialties are served from two people per machine, with unlimited salad and steamed potatoes. What we take away: a raclette whose origin you know.

8. La Petite Meule, Limoges: all-you-can-eat raclette in the town centre

On boulevard Victor Hugo, La Petite Meule describes itself as a Savoyard specialties restaurant in the heart of Limoges. Its website sums up the programme in a few words: “All-you-can-eat raclettes, fondues, tartiflettes…”. It also highlights quality cheeses and cold cuts. The house has a big sister, La Grosse Meule, which steps in when the little one goes on holiday, according to the website. You book online or by phone. What we take away: all-you-can-eat raclette in Limoges, with a plan B in the family if the door is closed.
