Restaurant le Coq Hardi

A huge thank you to Mr. Fonseca for his warm welcome and the delicious meal he prepared for us. The fish was cooked to perfection! Thank you for everything you do for us!

Dinner was excellent 😊 The accommodation was decent, very comfortable bed, although a bit dated. It lacked a bit of charm but was very clean. Breakfast was a little unusual; they ask you what you want: cold cuts, yogurt, pastries, etc. If you say no to certain things, the price is the same. I didn't take any cold cuts or yogurt, but I added a soft-boiled egg, and they charged me an extra 2 euros! That's not great. Plus, they don't advertise the price of breakfast. Otherwise, the location is very nice, right on the banks of the Loire. A little further along the Loire, there's an excellent crêperie run by two very friendly young men, with very affordable prices and excellent local products 👌

Excellent welcome, quiet hotel with a beautiful garden and lovely terrace, exceptional setting with views of the Loire, excellent restaurant attentive to customers.

Everything is perfect as always!

A responsive team - spacious room - clean - quality bedding

After several visits, it's always a pleasure to go there and to enjoy tasting the dishes offered at the restaurant.

The tiny 7.5m² room (excluding the bathroom) was crammed with a wardrobe, two bedside tables, a luggage rack, two chairs, and a desk—far too much stuff in such a small space. It felt oppressive, with only 50cm of room around the bed. The decor was outdated, and the lighting was poor. There wasn't even a teapot with coffee and tea, unlike most hotels that cost over €100 a night. It's a shame, because the terrace was lovely, larger than the room, the bed was comfortable, the staff were welcoming, and the room was clean. The price was exorbitant considering the overall quality. It also remains to be explained why, when booking through Hotels.com or Booking.com, the rooms assigned are always the smallest or the worst located; it can't be a random coincidence. It seems that rooms 1 and 3 at this hotel are larger and more comfortable than the very mediocre room 10, and perhaps others as well. In short, this is not worth the exorbitant price paid. Please note that I stay in hotels over 100 nights a year, and have done so for over 15 years, giving me a wide range of objective comparisons. Therefore, I apologize, but next time I will return to your nearest competitor.

An establishment with a stunning view of the Loire River, nestled in the heart of the Pouilly vineyards. The terrace is so inviting that you'll want to return in warmer weather to fully appreciate it. The chef (a true master!) serves inventive and generous cuisine, with a small but perfectly adequate menu. The wines are offered at very reasonable prices.

This establishment has many qualities: a good night's sleep, excellent food (the chef is exceptional) served by professional and lovely staff. We will definitely be back!

Exceptional setting, worth revisiting in good weather. High-quality cuisine. The accommodation is a bit dated but has been partially renovated. Just one minor issue: the radiator in the bathroom doesn't work.

Excellent staff and a wonderful dinner.

A pleasant place on the banks of the Loire.

Spacious room, good bathroom, excellent kitchen, comfortable dining room, beautiful location

-Quiet location overlooking the Loire. We stayed for one night on an 800km cycle tour. Secure storage for bikes was appreciated./

Great location facing the Loire. Very nice room with terrace. The owner is accommodating and friendly. Excellent meal on site.

Impeccably clean, a restaurant with French flavors, a chef with a capital C, a cheese cart like you don't see anymore, a wine list that does honor to the region!

Small but attentive staff. Excellent cuisine.

What a good table

10-minute wait at reception. The chef left his kitchen to give us the room key. Old-style room, clean, comfortable bedding. Decent meal. Menu with a lot of choices (too much in my opinion). We had dinner there, there were about twenty guests in the restaurant. Given the few staff, the service was extremely slow. Waited 1h30 to receive the starter (slice of cold terrine which did not require much preparation! Then another 30 minutes before the main course! We left before dessert. All the guests were exasperated by this situation. The chef and the waiter seemed incapable of handling this situation. No explanations... Classic breakfast served at the table by the unwelcoming chef (not a smile, nor a kind word). To settle the bill, again the chef, still as unjovial. Not a word to know if everything went well. This establishment does not deserve to be listed in Logis de France. The chef (owner) does too many things without knowing how to manage them properly!

Superb meal. Very experienced chef. Be aware the hotel is closed on Monday and Tuesday

Très bonne cuisine! Chef soucieux de fournir une excellente cuisine. Le quenelles sont délicieuses!

Excellent dinner and comfortable room for our stopover in Pouilly

The hotel and restaurant are aging, and the decor needs updating.

A very friendly and warm welcome, as expected in a 3-star inn. The dinner was excellent, the personalized breakfast perfect with a magnificent view of the Loire.

The owner gave a very cold welcome without even saying hello. We heard him grumbling to his team. The restaurant is very expensive for the price. When we asked what was included in each daily special, the team didn't know. It was impossible to know what was on the vegetarian menu. The perfect egg was far from perfect, almost a hard-boiled egg. We had to ask for bread during the hot meal. All the tables had appetizers except us. Fresh cheese which was nothing more than a simple white cheese. In short, a lot of imprecision for a MOF and for a 50 euro menu. It's a shame given the setting of the terrace.

The rooms are a decent size, the bathroom is large, as is the shower. However, there is no air conditioning, and sleeping with the windows open, even though they overlook the road, is not very pleasant. It's a shame. There is no refrigerator or courtesy tray either.

Very warm welcome from chef M FONSECA and excellent meal served on the terrace with a magnificent view of the Loire. A very good time in this place.

The hotel is very pleasant, the bedding is good quality but the welcome from the owner is rude and unprofessional.

An exceptional table, a room with a terrace and a magnificent view of the Loire.

Het hotel heeft geen airco wat een nadeel is bij warm weer. Het eten is lekker maar het duurt veel te lang vooraleer de verschillende gerechten wordsen opgediend en daardoor worden we als gasten heel ambetant, we hebben zelfs de cart de fromages moeten laten schrappen want het zou na middernacht zijn als het laatste gerecht aan tafel zou worden gebracht en de chef wilde If you take any precautions, you will not be able to do so without handling them.

Very pleasant stay at the "Coq Hardi", both for the hotel and its terrace room with a view of the Loire, and for the delicious and magnificent cuisine of the Chef!

A charming, well-maintained establishment. The room was small but comfortable, with a terrace overlooking the Loire. The restaurant was lovely, serving delicious, refined, and varied cuisine. There's a large garden sloping down to the Loire.

Service too slow. Menu items unavailable. Orders not served.

A delightful small traditional roadside Logis offering a warm welcome, easy parking and a well specified interior. The hotel has a terrace shaded by trees overlooking a large lawn and gardens that sweep down to the River Loire making it a genuinely breathtaking location. The rooms facing the river all have a large private balcony with outdoor furniture offering the same view of the river and the countryside beyond. The hotel has a small dining room offering very good food prepared to a high standard. The wine list contained more Pouilly Fumes and Sancerres than can be sampled in a dozen visits. This is not surprising as the hotel is located adjacent to the Caves de Pouilly Fume across the road.

This is a lovely little hotel that greatly exceeded my expectations.

Hotel to recommend for the presentation and quality of the products

The hotel is very well located and the whole place is beautifully maintained. The staff is discreet and helpful, and the room is spacious and well-equipped. The breakfast is generous; nothing is missing, just ask. As for dinner, it is more than excellent; the dishes are refined and the service impeccable. We recommend it without hesitation.

Very quiet hotel with a beautiful terrace for dining and a lovely view of the Loire. Highly recommended!

Everything was perfect: the welcome, the hotel, and the restaurant were truly delicious. Thank you for this wonderful time spent at your establishment.

One of the best experiences of our trip!

good food, comfortable rooms, quiet location, ....

very nice place, owner Meilleur Ouvrier de France, very good food, very good local wines...

We stayed at Le Coq Hardi last year and were very impressed by the hotel and in particular the catering. This year the quality of the catering was among the best of our three week stay in France. Traditional French cooking with a modern twist.

Very kind welcome , The staff was very helpful in finding solutions for my daughter who is in a wheel chair. Excellent food and choice of Pouilly Fumé wines. It is a pity we did not stay longer.

The food was delicious but the service was terrible. What a shame for this otherwise lovely place.

Charming little hotel on the banks of the Loire. A friendly and pleasant welcome and, above all, excellent cuisine made with delicious products prepared with refinement.

A helpful team, a very good table in a magnificent setting with a view of the Loire.

wonderful friendly hotel with outstanding food and a lovely location.

Professional and friendly welcome, excellent meal. Perhaps plan a small snack menu because when you're on half-board for a few days, you like to eat a little lighter on some days.

Great room with view of the Loire.

A truly wonderful culinary experience

I highly recommend this hotel and its restaurant. We received a very friendly welcome, a gourmet meal, and impeccable comfort and cleanliness. The view of the Loire is magnificent; you can go for a walk right from the hotel. A wonderful stay!

Satisfactory hotel, but the restaurant menu is more expensive than other comparable restaurants in the area. The welcome could be improved, and the breakfast is not very varied for a 3-star hotel.

We know and we will return

Hotel with a gourmet restaurant that I highly recommend!

A very well-run hotel. Ideally located facing the Loire. In good weather, the terrace is a pleasant place to relax. The owner and all the staff take great care of their guests. And don't forget the restaurant, which offers excellent menus. It's always a pleasure to come back.

The meal was excellent, the room large and pleasant. The meal was a bit pricey, and there were no options other than a set menu. Breakfast was also a bit overpriced for what was served.

Charming hotel with uitstekend restaurant in prima service.

Very welcoming and professional staff

Warm welcome from the head of the establishment, who is also the chef. Large room (disabled) with a very comfortable large bed. The decor needs updating... No road noise, but the soundproofing in the room above needs to be improved. Meals with a choice of cooked dishes and a very generous breakfast, with our preferences requested.

Very Good +

Ideal location. Excellent bedding. Refined cuisine.

Beautiful house: magnificent location on the banks of the Loire, comfortable room with a lovely terrace, refined cuisine, professionalism, dedication, and commitment from the entire team. Everything is perfect.

Very welcoming and attentive staff. Fabulous private terrace with views of the Loire. Large bathroom. One small drawback, more than made up for by the rest: the room was a bit small and cluttered with furniture that was not very useful.

Wonderful location with view on the river and excellent dining

A very pleasant weekend at Coq Hardi, with a magnificent view of the Loire. A very good table of course, with quality products. The room a little basic in decoration, but correct, ours a little noisy because surely of a boiler in the background which spoils the tranquility and harmony of the place. Attentive service, and the Chef very friendly.

Fantastische klassieke Franse keuken in een sfeervolle ambiance direct aan de Loire

A beautiful view of the Loire.

Excellent hotel and restaurant!

Personnel très agréable, location parfaite pour une étape au milieu d’un long trajet
