Unbelievably beautiful cathedral! Have seen quite a few in my lifetime but this one was special. Beautifully restored and not too busy. Loved the inside even more than the outside.

If you are only in Chartres for a few hours spend them visiting the incredible and Architecturally astounding Cathedral. Being the first UNESCO awarded and supported further by the volume of original stain glass. If able to stay for the evening the light show on and around this Cathedral and the surrounding Chartres centre is highly recommended.

Beautiful cathedral of Chartres. They made beautiful renovations, everything is really clear and neat. Even with clouds and no sunshine, the inside is bright enough to see through the painted glasses of the windows. They are marvelous piece of art. If you have the chance to be in the area, you should take the time to walk there and look for yourself how gigantic and stunning it is. What actually surprised me the most is how modern they are inside. They have contactless payment card machine for donation at each corner of the cathedral. So if you don't have coins like me, you can still use your card to pay to lit a candle or novena. The hours of the priest are written on a card board inside. The confessional is brightly litten and has a priest waiting inside for anyone who wants to confess theirs sins. This is unseen for me before today in France. There is also a treasury room which you have to pay to access it. Overall a great place to visit. I advise to park your car at the parking lot of Cathedral. There almost non existant place to park there.

Magnificent, historic, surrounded by lots of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops and not flooded with tourists when we visited. Chartres is an utterly beautiful city well worth a couple of days of your time. BEWARE, the cathedral is atop a hell of a climb up through steeply sloped streets.

Magnificent large cathedral of which the main structure was completed in only 26 years early 13th century. It then replaced a previous church that was lost by fire and of which only the crypt and the West facade with the Royal Portal remained. The interior is a feast to the eyes, with splendid stained glass windows, some of which date back to the 13th century. The highlight is the beautiful choir screen that circles the main altar. It's a monumental sculptural ensemble of 100 meters long and over 6 meters high. There are richly sculptured scenes about the life of the Virgin Mary and Jezus. You "read" the story by starting at the South transept and follow around. I got emotional looking at it. At the time of my visit, there was a lot of scaffolding work inside the church.

One of the greatest High Gothic cathedrals now reinvented with its controversial very light painting of the pillars and vaulted ceilings… it grew on me as we walked round, I concluded it’s wonderful not least by setting off the magical 13th C stained glass. We love the way it feels it’s still an active place of worship, not the case in all French cathedrals.

An amazing cathedral. The stone carving of the rood screen incredible. Tiny,tiny detail. Stained glass windows also v impressive. The only cathedral I've ever been in that didn't seem a bit damp, this one positively warm on a cool day. Entrance is free. It was very busy on the day we visited, lots of groups. A nice international hubbub.

I went in May 2022, we ate outside after a bit of a wait but servers were helpful. Avocado egg pastry was interesting, quite good but plating was its better quality. French onion soup was very bad, not thick not creamy or beefy or smooth at all— so watery and flavourless compared to the one we had at the Monet restaurant!! But I’m told that’s how they typically make it in France. Burger maison was wonderful, so delicious especially the cheese, very special burger and good fries too. I am writing this review because I was thinking about it. I wish I could go back!

This café was an excellent escape from the cold. While touring the nearby cathedral, I stopped in for a breaks. The hot wine, the crème brûlée and the French onion soup were excellent.

I had great vanilla tea here (beware the boiling metal teapot). We shared a really tender lamb shank for lunch, I would recommend. The service was great, even though it was really crowded

This is a super cute French bistro just off the church. We sat for a meal and a glass of wine. I ordered escargot and a steak tartare. The snails were delicious, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The tartare was fine, but it didn’t have any capers. We sat out side, shrubs could glasses of wine and enjoyed a great mean. Highly recommended if you have time.

We came with 3 children, very fredly 😊and had just some different type of meny to taste famous French dishes 😁

The French Onion soup was bland and the broth tasted old, not fresh. For excellent French Onion Soup go to Cafe Degas in New Orleans. The whole city rocks with fantastic french food. Go during Jazz Fest. A long wait now for main course.

I ordered the onion soup with croque madam. The cheese on top of the soup was burned black while the croutons were on the bottom and soggy. The croque had some cheese on top but the sides were black- burned low quality loaf bread. The egg was well done and crispy. It was the driest, most tasteless burned sandwich I ever tasted. It was clearly evident that everything was poorly reheated with a blowtorch and served up for the tourists. Save your money, better food at McDonald's.

Totally worth the hype! Good pastries. Service is really fast too. The lady who served us was so nice. Awesome ambience as there was live music from a busker :)

Amazing giant macarons! My son's loved them! Friendly service, great coffee and a lovely little free sweet treat with your drink.

Best hot chocolate on the whole planet. Sweets are great too.

My favourite place to have a drink in the city centre, great range of excellent pastries

Unassuming tea house with large terrace overlooking pedestrian square. Most of downstairs is dedicated to displays and preparation of takeaway orders. There are several small tables on the ground floor yet most of the seating is upstairs via a narrow and steep staircase, including two large chesterfield couches. One toilet is upstairs. A varied selection of classic French pâtisseries, snacks, ice-cream dishes and drinks. Known for its hot chocolate, local sweet delicacies and macarons. Reasonable prices. Well frequented.

Good coffee in a nice spot for breakfast

The Macorons are very good. They are crunchy, and tasty! The funniest part of the quick bite I had at The Chocolaterie was when I got the Limonade, The Limonade brand was not the usual brand that you would get like Garçon Limonade, it was the PS**TH Limonade!! The service is ok, nothing too say about it. Atmosphere is like a regular cafe. It is a cozy cafe. Highly Recommended!

This was ok. We saw savory foods listed by someone else and thought perhaps a savory breakfast but it was either a sweet breakfast or a bread and coffee French breakfast or a lunch type sandwich. The foods all looked Grand, but gluten free is hard in France for breakfast.

Friendly staff. Middling espresso.

Lovely little café shop. Great choice of savory and sweet foods.

Products were good, but staff did not speak any English.

Accueuillant, et bon cafe

Acceptable

A nice park to relax in, with an area for children to play as well as a beautiful flower garden.

Best park at Chartres. The entrance fee is totally free. Good for both adults and kids. It has decent public toilet too. Kids play area is vast to keep them busy. Best for picnic with families to share food with each other. It even has rope hanging activity.

The ropes course was so much fun! It was 16 euro per person for unlimited times and well worth the price. We had a wonderful time and the gardens/ flowers were also beautiful!

Beautiful, easy to access, and very close to Chartres Cathedral. The zipline and rope course cost us €16 a person but was well worth it since we had a kid, and would have been worth it as an adult as well. It was a delight.

What a nice medium sized park ! A little decentered, it easily passes unnoticed despite its size and nice location (very close to the train station). It provides huge spaces of colorfull arrangements, floral and wooden. The walk around is probably 10-15m depending on your walking speed, and it is mostly discreetly filled by locals enjoying it's peaceful nature. A few young couples on bank, some retired ones, and on the north part of the park : childrens or young will gather around the constructed playgrounds for the youngest, the immense metal web for the more adventurous, or even the ping-pong or basket ball setups for the oldest or the sportive adults. The overall feeling is that the high train's railroad on the east side and the big high trees provide a protected and shadowy nice shelter for a beautifull natural setup, where the discret human life in its full diversity is an important part.

Lovely town park in Chartres. Beautiful flower beds. Now have zip line activity in tree tops.

Excellent park. Which both girls loved. My 10 year old loved the Go Ape style climbing that was in the park .

Excellent experience; lovely service, great food and a location that is hard to beat. The only thing we didn’t like so much was the selection of starters; we felt that it was rather short on highlights and a bit boring. They can do better here.

We were passing through Chartres and came here because it had a knife and fork mention on the Guide Michelin. We made a reservation and glad we did for lunch because the place was full. I had the special which was cuisse de canette with orange sauce and he had the beef with mushrooms. Both were excellent. Be sure to order the Iles Flottante for dessert it's a dramatic presentation and delicious!

This was a superb meal and dining experience. Every dish was outstanding and we thought the value was fully there. Our 3 hour lunch with cocktails and two bottles of wine for 3 people was thoroughly enjoyable. Could not recommend more highly

Exquisite food, wonderful service, very good choice of wine, we tried the pork and the beef, along with a red and a white wine of Bourgogne. Highly recommended especially this time of year with the "Chartres en Lumiere" illuminating the facades of the Cathedral!!

A wonderful experience.We were a group of 17 people who booked a large table at this charming esta blishment bang on cathedral square in Chartres. A big menu with a lot of option, and we ordered quite a few dishes which were all just superb. We were served by a lady who was very kind, attentive and helpful.We all enjoyed our lunch there.The food, service and atmosphere were just great.

A lovely dinner in an authentic French restaurant. The accompanying service was a real highlight. Very happy to recommend. On a warm day the outside tables enjoying views of the cathedral would also be a highlight. We dined on a cool evening.

Really friendly staff. They were busy but so efficient. Great food. We had the belly pork which melt in the mouth. Would definitely recommend.

Great quality fish that is very fresh. The wasabi and ginger were in plastic packets… as well as the soy sauce in a tiny plastic bottle. The food was good/mediocre but overpriced.

Pretty good sushi. There are some interesting flavours with a kind of salsa feel to them. The "Tacos" were very good. Service was fine, although it was a little slow due to all the delivery riders coming in, so it's obviously popular for takeaway.

The makis (rolls) were good, but they dont offer the peruvian japanese fusion in their rolls, the ceviche was so bad that is not the real ceviche not even the nikkei ceviche

Ordered food and then they brought take away bag while waiting at table in stead of plates. People around us eating. Told us they are closed. Veryyyyy poor

You pay restaurant prices for McDonalds style service. Next time I will go to the Asian restaurant next door Pitaya. ...... 06/01/23 We revisited Cote Sushi. We were greeted by a charming young waitress with a written menu. No more squinting at my iphone mini in the low light ambience of this restaurant. She took our order via a tablet which allowed us some pleasant interaction; a big improvement on being told to order via our iphones. We ordered the the seasonal 'Scottish Box' with the whimsical 'Fish 'n' Chips' sushi, some grilled salmon skewers, a side of padron piments and the aubergine miso. The sushi was perfectly acceptable for a chain restaurant, the salmon, clean, simple and tasty, the padron peppers were moorish and the aubergine miso is my favourite dish here. If I were to make a recommendation, it would be to add an adult non-alcoholic beverage to the menu. Not everyone wants to drink alcohol, nor some variation on a sugary drink. Asahi, Sapporo and Kirin all make excellent non alcoholic beers. This would be a welcome addition. I have changed my review to four stars.

Service was horrible, server kept ignoring us. Very disapointing given that we had such great experience everywhere else in Chartres.

Delicious sushi and very good value.

Super friendly stuff, very good coffee, very good pastries, breads and baguettes! All 5 out of 5! Also, we had very good cider and you can sit outside. Plenty of sitting space.

Honestly incredible boulangerie in Chartres. I imagine the best but it's also the only one I've tried. Fantastic tradition for only €1 the best croissant aux chocolat et amandes that I've ever had. The escargot pistache was nice and flaky, not sure griottes were the best combo for my tastes but it was great. Overall the ambiance is calm and clean, a hint of Nordic minimalism in what appears to be a recent renovation. Kind ladies behind the counter as well. I'm also impressed with their pain au chocolat. And the fact that they have a different special bread every day of the week is very fun and a good reason to visit every morning!

Lovely quiche and coffee sitting in the square. Very friendly staff.

Excellent stuff. Tired multiple items and they were all great! Would highly recommend!

Had one night in Chartres and picked this as our bakery to visit - was not disappointed. Most delicious croissant au chocolat and pain au raisin.

Great boulangerie with a bog verity of pastry sweet an savory

Excellent bakery. Friendly & personal touch. Had a wonderful baguette & pain au chocolat! Highly recommend if in Chatres

Delicious food and very attentive staff. I particularly enjoyed the chocolate sphere which melts when you pour the hot chocolate sauce on it. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant.

I made a last minute reservation here for dinner. The food was excellent! Very welcoming and friendly service. I highly recommend. Thank you!

Had a wonderful meal here on a very warm evening and found the fabulous food was perfectly tailored to the hot weather. Our starters included a delicious mixed tomato salad with burrata and a fresh, perfectly flavoured crab concoction. This was followed with seared tuna with sesame and sea bass with vegetables, and finished with peach Melba and a rich chocolate fondant with hazelnut ice cream. All absolutely perfect. The waiter was extremely kind and attentive, arranging our taxi and even helping my mother, who has limited mobility, all the way to the car afterwards. I'd highly recommend this restaurant and have only marked down the 'atmosphere' a little as the outside terrace at the back is quite small and more practical than beautiful!

Delicious food. Best roast duck I've ever had. My husband's beef lightly seared and not overcooked at all, just as he likes. Tried raw cod fish for starter (first time) and pleasantly surprised. Go if you get the chance. Bar next door a good place to grab an aperitif beforehand. Need to walk here, no parking.

Had lunch there a couple of months ago with friends who own a home in France ! We all agreed , without a doubt, the worst food we have ever had anywhere. The chicken could not be cut with a sharp knife without rocking the table . We all simultaneously looked up , with 75% of all of our food still on the table and requested a check! Avoid this restaurant!

Most attentive service. Warm and inviting atmosphere a delicious food. Creative flavor profiles. A gem if walk down the road a bit in Chartres. Would love to go back

Excellent menu and very attentive staff. Will be sure to return when visiting Chartes in future.

Good prices but limited choices with an okay quality

Great pharmacy in the gallery but rest of the gallery is pretty empty unfortunately.

This place is not much crowded when compared with other competitors, and one can get all necessities with a bit high rate. It's better to stick with things under promotion for budget purchasing. And we can find many side shops to roam around. No problem with parking, but many trolleys won't come out with the coin key provided, it needs some serious servicing because it really spoils the shopping mood in the beginning.

Just another medium sized shopping centre with a good variety of shops and restaurants. Geant is the anchor store and it has just about every thing at very reasonable (for France) prices.

Fantastic hypermarket that is extremely large and has almost anything you could possibly need.

There's you can get good staff

Go there to pick some good from CDiscount.

Walked across the city to get there from my hotel to find it was closed due to the heat. I suppose this means their air conditioning doesn't work. This wasn't visible on Google maps at all.

Interesting museum on agricultural history of France

Excellent place for a conférence ! In addition nice exposition of Ag equipment of different times! One star exposition is a big tractor made of LEGO! Really impressive job on a numerous team! One thing could be improved: indication how to find parking that is located on the back of the building

Very modern museum. It was a big positive surprise!

Super ,

Closed due to COVID, but that was not mentioned on the website, so we travelled there for nothing...

Nice

Great place for beer.

Decent bar, reaonable prices for pints. Friendly staff. Good choice of music.

Great staff but way too confusing choice of beers. Also, sorry, but it could have been cleaner.

Awesome biers. Good service.

Perfect !!!

Marvellous

Interesting theater in an ancient building

Petit theatre stylee

(Translated by Google) Very nice place. Discovered during heritage days. Really not disappointed with our visit. Supervised by passionate and caring staff, it was a pleasure, it made us want to return as spectators (Original) Très bel endroit. Découvert lors des journées du patrimoine. Vraiment pas déçu de notre visite. Encadré par du personnel passionné et au petit soin, que ça fait plaisir, ça nous a donné envie d'y retourner en tant que spectateurs

(Translated by Google) I went to the Chartres theater for the first time two weeks ago. The theater has a beautiful ceiling. The theater isn't very big, so you're close to the stage. I liked it so much that I'm going back in a month. (Original) Je suis allée au théâtre de Chartres pour la 1ere fois il y a 2 semaines. La salle possède un joli plafond. La salle n'est pas très grande donc on est proche de la scène. Ça m'a tellement plu que j'y retourne dans un mois

(Translated by Google) An exceptional venue, flawless organization, and a program of exceptional quality. Thank you and congratulations to the staff and artists. A special thank you for the gesture made by the organizers for my sister-in-law on the evening of Marie Leonardi's show. We are very grateful ❤️ (Original) Un lieu exceptionnel, une organisation parfaite et une programmation d'un qualité exceptionnelle. Merci et bravo au personnel et aux artistes.

(Translated by Google) Visit during Heritage Days. Explanations provided by the site's technicians. Very educational tour with, as a bonus, a presentation in the small theater upstairs on the processes used, lighting, sound effects, etc. With an interpretation from different perspectives of a text that can be interpreted in six different ways. Definitely worth doing again. Thank you! (Original) Visite à l'occasion des journées du patrimoine. Explications donnés par les techniciens du site.

(Translated by Google) A big thank you to the team, and especially to Ingrid, for her warm welcome and kindness. Magnificent theater. (Original) Un grand merci a l'équipe et tout particulièrement a Ingrid pour son accueil chaleureux et sa bienveillance. Théâtre magnifique.

Totally amazing church whose stained glass windows are illuminated from the inside at night, producing the most beautiful effect! The "Chartres en Lumières" visual light media show runs throughout the city from April to October and the Église St Pierre is one of the most beautiful edifices. We took the Little Train (Le Petit Train) from the Cathedral square and saw all the illuminated sites, and went back to St Pierre to get a second look. Fantastic!

Amazing. Only down side we only had one night here. Will come back just me and the wife.

Nice looking ancient church but needs more maintenance as walls and the ceiling look like they are falling apart

I love how it ages. I love how it looks really ancien and original. I hope even if they restore it they'll still keep that real look.

Nice eglise with traditional architecture. The coloured glass windows make a fabulous view of sun light reflecting inside the building. The church looks as much beautiful from the inside as it does from the outside. There is a very peaceful and divine feeling you could experience once inside.

After spending several days at Chartres Cathedral I was humbled to enter this Cathedral through the Gothic red door symbolizing the womb of the Great Mother. In it's erie solitude and disrepair I was transported to earlier times in history. A reverence for history descended, not guilded but pure. The slanted cobbled floors were easier to maintain when horses came into the environment. The layers of painted and peeling motifs exposed the art of the ages. The wood latice and white marble statue in the Apse, a smaller version of the Chartres Cathedral was beautiful in the natural light even laced with cobwebs. The interior natural light was exquisite through the stained glass. There is a seated Black Madonna near the transcept entry with fresh Lilies lay at Her and His feet. A juxtaposion of the physical world to an aged time caught and suspended.

This is an old abbey church , near the river in Chartres, There are some lovely stained glass windows. There is an archeological area where some tombs were unearthed. The flying buttresses are just asking to be photographed. A neat stop when walking around Chartres.

Interesting to see and learn about the history here.

A delightful riverside walk through the medieval centre of Chartres. Lots to see and enjoy.

Enjoyed our walk around Chartres, there is a lot of history to explore. There is an information board about the fortifications and photos.

Cool old site, that comes alive during the Chartres light show every night!

A nice and peaceful spot where you can learn more about the history of Chartres. Information panels are in french and English.

Nice mostly residential now

Came here by chance and was very impressed.

Classic European B&B experience with kind hosts and pleasant accommodations. It's literally right next to the Cathedral making it easy to visit it and see the light show. If by car, parking is a bit quirky. Wouldn't hesitate to rebook.

This was our favorite hotel in France. It was decorated so nicely. The bathroom had a huge tub with jets. We were so close to the cathedral. We could watch the light show from our window. Our host was very nice. The price was terrific. We were able to walk to shops and restaurants. The bed was comfy and they had air conditioning. Thank you for such a good stay.

The location could not be better. Right next to the cathedral in the city centre, yet quiet and peaceful at night. The welcome was warm and friendly. Comfortable bed - I slept well and woke to a good breakfast with personal service. Highly recommend

I stayed in this lovely, small hotel for one night in September 2024. The staff were friendly and I enjoyed the breakfast. Guests can see the cathedral from the front steps. I would stay here again.

We stopped one night at the Parvis to break up a long trip. So glad we did. The location is amazing. Right next to the cathedral and the cathedral square. We stayed in the Henry room which has a lot of space (bedroom, sitting room, bathroom) with period fittings, but also modern features such as air conditioning and a fridge. I must compliment the Parvis on their soundproofing on the windows. Even if the room faces the main square, we couldn't hear a thing with the windows closed. A little bit pricey, but you're paying for the location, and what a location!

This is a gorgeous hotel, an authentic French hostelry smack bang beside the cathedral. Don’t go here if you’re looking for bling and luxury, but fight to get a room if your heart lies in old fashioned France…

Fabulous position, wonderfully old building and quirky decor, a really comfortable room complete with sitting area overlooking Chartres Cathedral. We received a warm welcome and breakfast this morning was delicious. Le Parvis is excellent value for money - the hotel even paid for our overnight parking! Highly recommended and we hope to stay there again!

Stopped by the Crêperie on our way back from Maison Picassiette. Food was decently good and service was reasonable. We sat at a simple table outdoor.

Excellent variety of galettes and crepes, with the provenance of ingredients listed. Beautifully cooked and presented. A lovely young friendly front of house team make it a very pleasant experience. A short walk from the city centre, though it has to be said that the walk back may be a bit steep. Worth it though.

Sometimes external events affect your enjoyment. Whilst the food and service were both excellent, a parade of scouts and other church affiliated young people were marching past the restaurant singing. Fabulous occasion.

Located in a beautiful old building and very family friendly. Delicious crepes

This was a chance find as we walked into Chartres. Away from the busy centre, this creperie is well worth a visit. Interesting speciality galettes and crepes of the chef using locally sourced ingredients, they were generous and delicious.

I had the omlette which was great and.. plenty.. but everyone else had crepes (galettes) and those were also delicious. Aand Cold cider on a warm day...

very lovely crêperie in one of the prettiest streets of chartres. i got the crêpe nordiques and it was delicious! would strongly recommend!

(Translated by Google) I've been going there regularly for years and I'm never disappointed. Their sandwiches are good made to order. The owners are friendly, always smiling with always a kind word. I recommend! (Original) J'y vais régulièrement depuis des années et je ne suis jamais déçue. Leurs sandwiches sont bons préparés à la demande. Les propriétaires sont amicaux, toujours souriant avec toujours un mot gentil. Je recommande !

(Translated by Google) My husband and I were looking for a good Greek! And we are satisfied with the delicious fillet, the generous filling and the fries we loved! I recommend this place. I should point out that there were 3 of us eating (Original) Avec mon mari ont cherchais un bon grec ! Et nous sommes satisfaits la bonde délicieuse la garniture généreuse et les frites ont adore ! Je recommande cet endroit. Je précise qu’on était 3 à manger

(Translated by Google) Frankly, people have no taste in my opinion. 1 several times several of us came to eat. But froze..... We had barely arrived and we came back, always the same and the fries look like they were reheated in the microwave the day after the evening. I strongly advise against it (Original) Franchement les gens on pas de goût à mon avis. 1 plusieurs reprise on est venu à plusieurs pour manger. Mais degeula..... On s'était s à peu arriver et nous y sommes retourner toujours pareil et les frites on dirait qu'elle sont réchauffer en micro onde un lendemain de soirée. Je vous le déconseille fortement

(Translated by Google) Very welcoming place the staff is pleasant the food is good meat very good fries crispy soft bread, quite generous on the quantities. I recommend. (Original) Lieu très accueillant le personnel est agréable la nourriture est bonne viande très bonne frites croustillant pain moelleux, assez généreux sur les quantités. Je recommande.

(Translated by Google) I had sandwiches for the first time honestly it was delicious, the staff is friendly the tender meat the portions are generous, really everything you expect from a kebab keep it up (Original) J’ai pris des sandwiches pour la première fois franchement c’était délicieux, le personnel est sympathique la viande tendre les portions sont généreuses, vraiment tout ce qu’On attends d’un kebab continuez comme ça

(Translated by Google) Unacceptable service, the boss blames me for asking him for cutlery and a glass of water. The kebad came with very little meat and to justify himself, he told me that it was a five euro kebad. I really don't recommend anyone going there. There is a much better kebab shop 50 meters away with much warmer people. (Original) Service inadmissible, le patron me repproche de lui avoir demandé des couverts et un verre d'eau. Le kebad ma été fourni avec tres peu de viande et pour se justifier, il me dit que c'est un kebad a cinq euros. Je déconseille vraiment toute personne d y aller. Il y a un kebab 50 metres plus loin bien meilleur avec des personnes bien plus chaleureux.

(Translated by Google) Very good kebab! Excellent and very courteous welcome. Meals well served while being affordable! (Original) Très bon kebab ! Accueil excellent et très courtois. Repas bien servis tout en étant à prix abordables !

Good pastries for breakfast or snacking. Reasonable prices. They also have sandwiches and drinks. There are some outdoor tables to eat at. Fast and friendly service.

Good place to taste all kind of bread. Also good for a breakfast or a quickly lunch

Top !

Passtime ok

Correct

Super top !

(Translated by Google) As the saying goes: Not too fast in the morning, slowly in the afternoon! No customer wait management (no communication) while we're in a retail outlet? A mistake in the orders exchanged. I was made to wait 10 minutes for my meal, which was supposedly being heated, when the waitress had simply forgotten to add it. Without communication... easy to guess. In short, I won't be going back. (Original) Comme le dirait un si bon dicton : Pas trop vite le matin, doucement l’après midi ! Aucune gestion de l’attente des clients( pas de communication) alors qu’on est dans un point de vente ? Erreur dans les commandes échangées. On m’a fait patienter 10 minutes pour mon repas qui soit disant étant entrain de réchauffer, alors que la serveuse avait juste oublié de le mettre. Sans communication … facile de deviner. Enfin, je n’y remettrai plus les pieds.

Amazing place to visit. So much to look at. The amount of thought gone into decorating this house is astonishing.So many little faces in the walls . Lots of colourful areas. I do have a concern though. The little fish pond was so green and no noticeable pump to oxygenate the water. The fish were struggling . Not a great expense to sort it out.

I’ve never professed to be a huge art lover but I really enjoyed visiting this home! The history behind it is important so get the info leaflet from the entrance. Well worth the 10 euro entrance. This is a 30 min to an hour visit.

We were very moved by our visit here. It is rare to feel so connected to an artist and the feeling behind their work. He turned recycling in to an art form, well ahead of his time! To turn a humble little dwelling in to such a surprising work of art was inspiring. A must see.

If you would like to be amazed by mozaïek works, you definitely should visit this place. It's a nice walk from Chartres city Centre. At the maison itself you can't stop looking at all the different art works. In every little corner there is New mozaïek to discover.

Raymond Isidore is an interesting man, and an interesting life. How beautiful - such love for his beloved wife and his beloved city.

A nice man and his wife lived in this small house down a long narrow alleyway - and he spent his life covering literally everything in bits of broken pottery - makes a change..

What a beautiful mosaic house tucked away into a tiny nook of a neighbourhood. An attraction that turned out surprisingly a lot more interesting than what I thought it would be. I love how the whole house is filled with mosaics and the quotes from the guy is plastered around. Wish the quotes had English translation under or something. The only reason why we could understand it was because of the paid book available in the souvenir store. An interesting place to seek for inspiration for art.

Beautiful park! Had a nice walk here with many great photo opportunities!

A cool park to spend a serene afternoon on a sunny day

Lovely little park, about 10 minute walk from the cathedral.

A hidden gem in the centre of Chartres. Seasonal café with music (a real French "guinguette") and a pizza place!

The park is very nice. Beautiful flowers and trees. Great place for couples, singles and families. The visit was not planned since we were visiting surrounding areas. There is a small playground for kids, miniature golf plus more......

Lovely place to walk to,along the river

It's a nice place to visit with family and have some fun time with the animals and playgrounds for children. This place has some scenic spots for photoshoot. The stream is very clean and maintained, one can see even the small fishes below. We took a spot for to rest and have our home prepared lunch peacefully enjoying the nature.

This is a lovely little church with frescos all over the walls. Whilst looking inside, the organ was playing. What i thought was piped turned out somebody was actually playing. If you are in Chartres, even 1 day, take a 5 minute stroll from the market area and have a look around this quaint church

Free entry, a large church that’s most interesting inside, I would say it is more interesting than the cathedral because you have close views of the stained glass windows and the interior stonework and roof are all painted. In need of restoration work.

Wonderful little church, a hidden gem a few hundred meters from Chartres cathedral. A great example of a medieval church dedicated to St Aignan with painted walls, tapestries and stained glass. Definitely worth a visit

Atmospheric, and oasis of calm, very old and traditional, in the shadow of the cathedral but still go.

Beautiful church and Traditional Latin Mass. Photos taken on Pentecost Sunday AD 2022

Very nice

I loved this place, perhaps more than the cathedral

Now deconsecrated, this Romanesque church was the religious centre of one Chartres' liveliest areas, the "river workers'" quarter, home to millers, dyers, cobblers, fullers, tanners and tawers. In the 16C it was extended with the addition of a choir and an apsidal chapel built on arches spanning the River Eure. Sadly, the choir and vaults disappeared in 1827. Nowadays, this former collegiate church is a cultural centre hosting events and exhibitions.

(Translated by Google) Very nice place near the Eure in the lower town of Chartres. The architecture is magnificent and the medieval garden outside is fun for young and old. This magnificent place regularly hosts more or less pretty and interesting exhibitions. Currently, the exhibition is focused on paintings and objects from the Air Force.

(Translated by Google) It's a shame not to make this kind of place more accessible. While visiting Chartres, it seemed to me that the heritage, outside of the cathedral, is suffering from its success. The collegiate church was closed; it seems to be open only for exhibitions. When I got home, I looked for the 2020 exhibition schedule, opening days and hours, but I couldn't find anything up-to-date. The history of this collegiate church is terrible; the French Revolution and the years that followed destroyed a jewel. The choir arch over the Eure and the second arch for the Chapel of the Virgin were original architectural features that inspire dreams. For lack of anything better, the walk along the river, a tributary of the Seine, is pleasant. It's a shame not to make this kind of place more accessible; it's less sumptuous and prestigious than the cathedral but so rich in history. (Original) Il est dommage de ne pas rendre plus accessible ce genre d'endroit. En visite à Chartres, il m'a semblé que le patrimoine, en dehors de la cathédrale, souffre du succès de celle-ci. La collégiale était fermée, elle semble ouverte seulement pour des expositions. J'ai cherché à mon retour à la maison le programme des expositions pour 2020, les jours et les horaires d'ouvertures, j'ai rien trouvé d'actualisé. L'histoire de cette collégiale est terrible, la révolution française et les années qui l'on suivi a détruit un joyau. L'arche du chœur au dessus de l'Eure et la deuxième arche pour la chapelle de la vierge, était une architecture originale qui prête à rêver. Faute de mieux, la balade au bord de la rivière, affluent de la Seine, est agréable. Il est dommage de ne pas rendre plus accessible ce genre d'endroit, moins somptueux et prestigieux que la cathédrale mais si riche d'histoires..

Absolutely not worth the price of entry! A rather sad collection in a neglected space

Small museum with very few paintings that worth to see. Building is nice but in pour condition. Art lovers can skip it, better spend more time in cathedral than is really a gem.

Good small museum in the backyard of the cathedral, free visit with religious and local arts.

This is the building of that what locals call Le Musee des Beaux-Arts de Chartres or the Museum of Fine Arts of Chartres. This is no big but excellent Museum situated just next door to famous cathedral because you can find there personal belongings or artifacts attributed as personal belongings of poor King Charles VI of France (1368-1422). Insanity of this king ruined his personal life and the entire Kingdom of France and untied hands to his uncles and couzen. Their political struggle created two powerful factions of Armagnacs and Bourguignons, caused mutual murders of rivals, and at last brought entire country to open civil wars. So, the main purpose of my visit was to see the gambeson of King Charles VI! It was the funniest visit for all my life! French museum workers didn't understand French word gambeson! Can you imagine?! Even when I explained that this is a padded defensive jacket of XIV-XV centuries usually worn over or under the armor, even then they couldn't understand. At last, I just took a piece of paper and a pen and drew a gambeson! Museum people gladly and with wide smiles started nodding and saying, "Yes, yes! It is here!" Where? And they answered "in the storage!" So, the most precious artifact is in the storage room! So, I have covered 2800 kilometers just to discover that fact! But my travel was worth of seeing houndskull helmet and haubergion allegedly belonged to Charles VI! Museum of Fine Arts, Chartres, Eur-et-Loir, 🇫🇷 France 🇫🇷. January 5, 2015.

Have been meaning to visit this lical museum with 20+ years and finally did it. It is a beautifully preserved building just beside the cathedrale with impressive entrance hall and stairs, reception room and chapel. The art exhibition is interesting to see if not spectacular. We passed a very pleasant hour discovering the museum. Entrance fee is very reasonable.

My wife uses a wheelchair and it was completely inaccessable

No charge to enter, nice paintings

If you want a day trip from Paris, I highly recommend Chartres, a very charming little town dominated by the Notre Dame de Chartres, a Unesco listed cathedral. Stunning leadlights and the cathedral’s detailed sculptures make you wonder how they built it a thousand years ago and how incredibly talented and clever people were then. My photos do not do the cathedral justice. It’s only 1 hr by train from Paris, unfortunately we couldn’t stay for the cathedral evening light show.

I think most people have missed this nice museum to visit in Chartres. They have good description to the iconography of each object, as well as good video of the technique of making color glass. More worthy to see are their medieval objects of color glasses. The contemporary exhibition downstairs is interesting. In their yard there was an catto seems on alert to the visitors, which made the visit quite “medieval”.

If you love stained glass you must come here. It gives you an opportunity to see medieval stained glass up close. To see repairs and “stop gaps.” There are large scale photos of a large number of windows from Chartres Cathedral so you can study the detail. There is also a contemporary exhibition of modern stained glass which is very thought provoking.

Unless you want to learn more about the biblical meaning of many of the stain glass windows in the Chartres cathedral, you shouldn’t bother to go. It is mind numbing in detail and not very interesting after the first 5 minutes. We hoped/ thought it we would learn more about the process and evolution of same of stain glass over the centuries. Not so much.

Nice and informative museum to visit. Unexpectedly interesting part is to see and learn how glass stain has been and still is done. Good value for money. Recommend

Was really nice+very interesting to see all different stained glass all about history behind it all

Very interesting collection.

We had a great dinner at Le21 while visiting Chartres. Charming hosts and an intimate restaurant housed across the path from the Chartres Cathedral. We had two completely different 3 course dinners and everything was perfect. Very relaxing experience.

Booking is strongly recommended as this restaurant offers few seatings. Intimate and clean settings. Friendly and Attentive service. Menu as well as drinks (wine, basic cocktails) are displayed on chalkboards. Few dishes but all prepared on the spot! Cheese bricks (fried triangular dumpling) were a great start to the dinner: not greasy and cheesy but not too overwhelming. The pistachio crust on the fish was a delicious surprise that went well with stir fried greens. The veg-friendly dish (lasagna) was a bit dry. The big plus: really great coffee and its selection of pastries! Great food, great view (right across the cathedral), great service: Great option in Chartres!

We skipped Versailles and spent our day trip from Paris in Chartre - and we will remember it always. Our lunch at Le21 would alone have made the trip worthwhile. The combination of the cathedral with our best meal in France served so perfectly in a small and charming dining room felt like a dream come true. We will remember our afternoon fondly for years to come. Many thanks to our host and hostess . ( we booked well in advance - if you have the chance, don’t miss it )

Great evening and meal. Small cozy room with, maybe 16 seats across from the church. Delicious meal with skilled waitress and a nice wine choice. Limited menu, but everything was tasty at a very fair price.

Very frustrated and disappointed - we had a great meal here last year but maybe because it’s become too popular they have lost sight of what’s important. We phoned , messaged , emailed and confirmed in both French and English that we had a reservation. But on arrival she said we were late by 30 minuets and had given our table away. We were not late and it’s incredibly sad that when we arrived the waitress was aggressive and rude. Book somewhere else .

It's all been said about the fabulous location, ambience, food, wine, value for money and service. Thank you for squeezing us in at the last minute, and gifting us with a cathedral view window seat! One of our trip highlights.

Two sittings a night 7am and 9am with menu at about 30 euro. Great value for money and wine prices also reasonable. Intimate setting much like being in a persons home with exposed wood beams and varied cutlery. First dishes were excellent especially the pepper soup with poached egg. For main the haddock was perfectly cooked if a little overpowered by the tomatoes. Desert was lime cheesecake freshly made. A great romantic night out.

Very good kebab, friendly staff 👌

Very good kebab served by friendly staff. Don't look elsewhere if you crave turkish food.

Mashalla best kebab ever m3s0p0t4mie 4 ever

Super service

(Translated by Google) Having recently settled in Chartres, I was able to taste the sandwiches and other plates offered in Mesopotamia: Lamb meat, kofta, and finally kebab meat, and I must say the quality is top notch, as are the fries are homemade. In addition, the atmosphere is both family and warm, provided by a duo who is as friendly as they are pleasant. All in the magnificent medieval center of Chartres! Conclusion: Whether you live or are passing through Chartres, Mesopotamia is the ideal place to eat an excellent kebab. (Original) Installé depuis peu à Chartres, j'ai pu goûter aux sandwichs et autres assiettes proposées au Mésopotamie : Viande d'agneau, kefta, et enfin la viande de kebab, et je dois dire la qualité est au top, de même que les frites sont faites maison. De plus, l'ambiance est à la fois familiale et chaleureuse, assurée par un duo aussi sympathique qu'agréable. Le tout, dans le magnifique centre médiéval de Chartres ! Conclusion : Que vous vivez ou êtes de passage à Chartres, le Mésopotamie est le lieu idéal pour manger un excellent kebab.

(Translated by Google) I don't know a better kebab shop. We arrived after 1 a.m. and were welcomed as if we'd lived in Chartres forever. We were just passing through to get something to eat before heading to Le Mans, and we had more than just a quick dinner. The prices are low and the food is high-quality. I'll spare you all the good things I could say about the homemade fries, which are simply exceptional. The portions are generous, the choices are varied, and the service is simply incredible. We had a wonderful time at this restaurant, and as a resident of the 77 department, I'll definitely come back to Chartres for this kebab. Thank you to these two people who welcomed us. Chartres is a dead city, but Mesopotamia awakens it and makes this useless city a vital necessity for well-being. (Original) Je ne connais pas meilleur kebab. Nous sommes arrivé à plus d’une heure du matin, nous avons été accueilli comme ci nous habitions Chartres depuis toujours. Nous n’étions que de passage afin de se restaurer pour prendre la route vers Le Mans et nous avons passé plus qu’un simple dîner « rapide ». Les prix sont bas et la nourriture de qualité. Je vous passe tout ce que je pourrais dire de bien sur les frites faites maison qui sont simplement exceptionnelles. Les quantités sont bonnes, les choix est varié et le service et tout juste incroyable. Nous avons passé un très bon moment dans ce restaurant et résidant dans le 77, je reviendrais à Chartres pour ce kebab j’en suis sûr. Merci au ces deux personnes qui ont su nous accueillir, Chartres est une ville morte, mais le Mésopotamie la réveille et fait de cette ville inutile, un besoin vitale pour le bien être

In March 1996 I was on a European backpacking trip that went sideways. I didn't intend on visiting France or Paris but did and as an architecture student visited Chartres for the cathedral's gothic significance and then walked around the town finding a beautiful restaurant overhanging the L'Eure. On that sunny March day I reflected that this was the place I wanted to propose to my future, albeit unmet wife. Fast forward 29 years, a marriage and 4 children later, my wife and I made it back where I proposed again and had an absolutely outstanding meal and experience on beautiful sunny March day. C'est bon!

Very gracious hosts. One of the best meals I have had. I was part of a study abroad group from the States. We had with us one girl who can get by with French, but the rest of us knew only “please” and “thank you”. The hosts and servers were very kind and they graciously (and patiently) served us some of the best food I have ever eaten. The atmosphere was wonderful. We all had a great time. Merci Le Moulin De Ponceau. Merci.

Best meal we had in a long time. Attention to detail in the presentation and in the food combination. The waiter was very prepared and polite, explaining to us every dish. The wine I had was fantastic. Definitely recommend and we will come again to visit.

The restaurant is situated in a lovely location next to the river, making for a lovely sunny evening experience. The food is quite high-end, but unfortunately some of the dishes seemed to lack the flavour of the included ingredients. Staff were friendly, and the price is good for the experience, but I think they need to bump up the flavours a bit more.

Former watermill, this spot has to offer a delicate and seasonal cuisine in a clean settings. Efficient and friendly serving staff. Book your spot for a culinary experience. You get to enjoy your meal as well as the view on the river. Menu offers options to satisfy veggie friendly customers. All dishes were perfectly balanced. Great plus was the bread. Won't say much about the dishes to avoid any spoilers (the combination of lukewarm beetroot and strawberry was a delicious surprise!).

This was definitely one of the highlights of our visit to France and certainly to Chartres. The location is picturesque, the staff are friendly and attentive and the food was excellent. The location was so peaceful, service was at a relaxed pace -- a true gem

Amazing experience! Very nice place inside an old windmill, the staff is very welcoming and available, you get serve very quickly. Food is very tasty in small portion but at end of the meal you have enough. We had some little extra! Probably better view of the surrounding during day time. Ask for a table in the veranda if you want be placed near the river!😉

Very friendly stuff an pizza was excellent . Very good place.

Very tasty, delicious flavours. Mexicane is lovely and the service was great. Good musique too. Worth trying. Affordable.

I had a very good pizza,chilled atmosphere enjoyable.👍

It is some nice artwork on residential buildings but it’s not worth the visit. It’s ok of you’re passing by

It's actually a good idea to have normal three story apartment blocks decorated completely with paintings. However, for me it's not really inspiring rather a bit kitschy. But that's obviously up to the audience

Cool

(Translated by Google) The frescoes of Bel Air are a true artistic and urban success! They transform building facades into open-air works of art, bringing color and dynamism to the neighborhood.

(Translated by Google) Definitely worth a visit. It's just a residential block, but besides being highly artistic and detailed, it's also instructive about how a community can make its own living.

Jeez. So lively yet complicated. I got lost . Google map needs an up to date concerning where to park the car and continue by feet 🤔. I kept turning around and around instead of just being told, "pack the car and walk, it's not so far" 😜, don't even know if that is possible 😁. Over to you Google. Give us a solution. Thank you.

(Translated by Google) Chartres has many paid parking lots, even very far from the center! So either you opt for one of them, or you go around in circles and find a free place but you will have to walk. That's what we did, it's quite nice because we then reach the center (it's a tough climb) by following the canals then walking through the alleys. (Original) Chartres est dotées de nombreux parkings... payants, même très loin du centre ! Alors soit vous optez pour l'un d'eux, soit vous tournez en rond et vous dénichez une place gratuite mais il vous faudra marcher. C'est ce que nous avons fais, c'est plutôt sympa car on rejoint alors le centre (ça monte dur) en longeant les canaux puis en arpentant les ruelles.

Terrible experience, food not good! We chose this restaurant last Friday evening after walking around the fabulous city of Chartres. It looked to be in quite a nice area of the town amongst some other restaurants and offered the type of dishes we were looking for. We sat inside near the bar, where there was a rather unpleasant smell which drifted in the air from time to time. This seemed to coincide whenever somebody used a door near to where we were sitting. The initial service staff seemed quite friendly and polite. We ordered steak and chips and a crispy fish burger with chips. When it arrived, the steak was very small and seemed to be folded in half. The meat was very tough and after taking the first mouthful it tasted like it had been cooked in rancid butter with a very upleasant taste indeed. The chips looked and tasted burnt. One mothful was enough not to want any more. My partner's fish burger appeared to be microwaved. The bun had a hard texture and the batter on the fish looked very pale and uncooked and was stuck to the bun. She took two mouthfuls and had to spit out the second one as it tasted rank. Her chips were also burnt. After trying the food, we decided that we would just finish our drinks, which were ok, and go. We were both left with a horrible taste in our mouths. The waiter, different one to the one that showed us to our table, came and asked us if we were happy with our meals, to which we replied no with an explaination why. He then went and came back with a bill for 50 euros. I asked him if we could just pay for our drinks as the food was not edible. He refused to do this and went off to chat to some other staff. When he came back he still insisted that the food was good and what we had ordered and we had to pay. He also seemed to become more agressive in his attitude and body language towards us. I did argue that we we were very usatisfied with the meal and felt we should be let off some of the bill. After it started to get more heated, I decided to just give them the 50 euros and call it a day. Over the years we have visited many restaurants in France, some very good ones and some not so good ones. This one is by far the worst restaurant we have visited in any country both in terms of food quality and quality of service! We do not recommend you go there until they have made some big improvements!

The Foie gras was superb! The main dishes are all good. I had the pulled pork burger - yum! We tried two desserts, the lemon meringues tart and the chocolate cake. Both very delicious! If in Chartres this restaurant is worth a visit!

Smells like death outside under the « halles », thanks for the garbage cans and the dead rats around them next to the tables. That should have been a dead giveaway for the rest of the experience. The staff is clearly still in school and have acne spots depicting their extensive experience. No knowledge of how to properly place dishes on the table, pay attention to the clients… loooooong waits. The food is good, I’ll admit but way overpriced. All in all, they are way over their head and cannot keep up, looks a bit like a tourist trap.

Food was ok in general but the onion soup was burned and did not taste at all. Even though I complained nobody really cared. Service was not good in general. We ordered water and salt and never received it.

A really great meal here, starters, mains and pudding all delicious. Menu has lots of unusual and attractive sounding dishes, but not fussy. Chef is very good. Wine list, particularly Loire selection, nice too and the poire eau de vie we had was pretty special. Friendly and efficient service, cosy unpretentious setting.

Excellent lunch menu at reasonable price and very good quality. We had the sweet potato parmantier with pulled pork for the main course and an original viennoiserie pain purdue. The service was fast and efficient with the staff being very friendly.

Friendly staff were always on hand, made us feel welcome and were patient with our amateurish French. Nice beer and cider. My partner had a tasty steak with potatoes but not enough salad, I had john dory (perfect) served with a stodgy risotto which was delicious but had the texture of rice pudding. My plate also lacked green veg or salad other than a few leaves on top.

Its was really terrible experience, nothing was good or tasty, we want to spend good Christmas eve, the price was 100 par person,i really expect something nice but no one plate was good, cold un possible to eat. It was a catastrophe !!! No homemade, salmon un possible to eat so salty , really worse restaurant i had to visit. If you have a choice, run away.

This restaurant is a hidden gem. I am giving it five stars because it’s as good as any Michelin five star restaurant and I have been to many including those in Paris. You will not be disappointed! The presentation, the cuisine, the ambience is very personal in a delightful way. If you are on your way to Chartres, make sure to add this to your must-enjoy list!

Great location, by the river. A place to stop, chill and soak up the scenery. Friendly place, catering to locals but on ghe whole not worth getting off the highway to eat there

Lovely setting with terrace on Eure river bank on a beautiful day with blues skies over Chartres cathedral. Very reasonably priced menu with good quality and choice. Staff were efficient and friendly. Disappointed that amuse-bouche with aperitif were not a little more exciting in choice (saucisson) and flavour (vegetable puree). Starters were great, original and tasty. Main course salmon was not cooked enough which was easy to rectify but it was a pity that it did not come back on a clean plate with fresh vegetables. Overall a very pleasant meal.

Delicious food, fantastic location and brilliant service, I would highly recommend stopping here for a meal whilst in Chartres.

Good place to eat

A very friendly reception with good value food. Popular with a mix of locals and tourists. Attractive decor with an inside outside feel
