Le Vezelien - Vézelay

We had coffee here a number of times over our 2 week holiday. On the last day we had lunch here and what a surprise it was.We had Croque Madame and absolutely loved it. Others in group had omelets - same opinion.It's surprising as this wee cafe doesn't really look like it offers lunches, or food at all. Small chalkboards are hidden beside the door however and if you want brilliant food at really amazing prices - this is the place. Wish we had eaten here every time we dined out.Small issue with the chairs / tables being on a rickety intersection, but so long as you position yourself appropriately, it's a great place to eat, drink and people watch.

A hot summer day, walking the hill of Vezelay, exploring the abbey, eventually you need to recharge. Le Vezelien turned out to be the ideal spot for it. Whether our group members opted for the 'plat du jour' or ordered a la carte like me, who chose the Steak tartare from Charolais beef (fantastic) - everybody was happy and satisfied. Refreshed we continued exploring, stunned by the amazing price/value relation this bistro offers and pleased about the friendly welcome and attentive service.

La nourriture est très fraiche. Nous y avons mangé une excellente salade à l'ombre en terrasse.L'accueuil est sympathique.Seul point noir, le chocolat avec le café est "oublié", sauf pour les habitués.

We went there for drinks after a late visit to the Basilika. It is a charming place with nice people.

Wenn mann Durst hat und einen kleinen Snack braucht um in Ruhe das Treiben auf der Hauptstrasse von Vézelay zu beobachten ist hier ein guter Ausgangspunkt.
