Our take
In Le Puy, you can eat well without blowing the budget: home cooking explained in the dining room, and desserts that come up in every review.
In Le Puy-en-Velay, Claire and Mickaël cook the food of Haute-Loire, with Puy green lentils (AOC, controlled designation of origin) leading the way, in a calm setting.
Le Comptoir des Saveurs is the restaurant of Claire and Mickaël, on avenue Foch, right in the centre of Le Puy-en-Velay. They serve traditional cooking that follows the seasons and relies on local producers.
The food of Haute-Loire leads the way: Puy green lentils (AOC, controlled designation of origin), meat from Auvergne (beef, pork from the region), farm produce. You will also come across Polignac mustard, and ideas such as salmon marinated with citrus fruit. The menu changes with what comes in, so take these dishes as examples, not as a fixed list.
As for the setting, the idea is simple: a calm, smart and quiet place, made for sharing dishes without any fuss. A set lunch menu at midday, fuller menus, and takeaway. Booking recommended.
