Bois Joli

We booked in advance, but were welcomed with considerable indifference. it took a long time to order an aperitif. we were not very satisfied with the waitress. there was no ambience that is the gloom. what seemed to be a limited menu offered...a few great restaurants. the food was very well presented and absolutely delicious.

From outside you will see a nice hotel with a restaurant. the jewel in the clone is the restaurant. eating is excellent and the service excellent. highly recommended.

This was one of the best meals I have had recently. Great ambiance splendid menu lived up to its write up. Good amuse bouche enjoyable seafood grill perfectly cooked liver splendid wine list. Excellent service and reasonably priced. If we return I would try to...stay here

This as got to be one of the finest meals I have had,from the welcome to the meal it’s self which was amazing. I was with my family and the Wyrills,can I say the waitress who served us was excellent and very patient especially with...our broken French. Can i thank you all for a wonderful evening

We've eaten at several restaurants on Bagnoles and have usually come away thinking it was not quite as good as expected. The Bois Joli does not fall into this category. The quality and choice of food was excellent. I think maybe the portions could have...been more generous, but perhaps this was because we were very hungry and the dishes we did not choose may have been more substantial. The service was very good, with pleasant and professional waiters, and as we were waiting for the table, a nice beer on the balcony was pleasant. Just on that, when booking for a specific time, I like the option of going to the table at that time, so this was a minor blemish. Menus in English were on offer, but we do rather like the challenge of ones in French. The atmosphere was good, with a variety of couples and (adult) families, some of whom were staying at this hotel. The restaurant was far better than those which can be the case when part of a hotel. The location, just on the edge of (the lovely town of) Bagnoles de l'Orne was fine with easy access and parking. As for price, this was OK, not cheap, but nothing that would make the credit card creek. All in all, a very nice place and we'd be pleased to return.
