La Grange de Vers - Vers-Pont-du-Gard

The owners create an excellent brunch. Plat de Jour made to order. Delicious coffee. Ends with a bit of sweet; on our visit it was owner Amy's grandmother's pound cake recipe. Worth the trip to start the day. Check hours before heading there...

We stopped over for a quick pint of their local brew after a 10km walk around Pont du Gard, this quickly developed into another pint and a platter of cheese, dried sausage and hummus (all of which was delicious). Friendly staff located in a quaint little cafe. A surprisingly refreshing stop over.

We enjoyed very much a healthy and tasty lunch, appreciating that everything was freshly made with lots of organic and local ingredients, and at fair prices. A good coffee and nice dessert topped off the experience, artisanal ice cream also available.

After a 19km walk it was great to sit beside the lovely shady Place de la Fontaine and drink a local beer and down a plate of sausages, BBQed red capsicum, potatoes with delicious olive accompaniment and a green salad. From other reviews it sounds as if service and food varies, but I was very happy with it all.

We were staying in Vers for 2 weeks and I visited here regularly for coffee. It has the most lovely settings at the main crossroads in the picturesque village where you can sit in the sun and soak up the ambiance. The cafe itself is very tastefully decorated and very cool. I also can 't fault the coffee here-definitely one of the better cups we had during our visit. The only negative was the service. This is not a personal attack on the owner (American? But honestly I felt us being there was an imposition on her! She looks disinterested and glum and this affects the customer-experience. I 'm sure this lady is extremely nice in reality but unfortunately we never got as much as a smile or a 'Ca va? '....
