After a great (but tiring) day of touring the Palace de Versailles with my wife, we were eager to…read morefind a great meal on the streets of Versailles. Upon finding a cafe that had outdoor heat lamps (a nice bonus), and several tables with French patrons enjoying drinks, we thought we had found the right place.
After being seated, we waited about 10 minutes for the bartender/server to take our order. If he had been crazy-busy, I might have understood. However, when 3 French patrons sat down 5 minutes after we had been seated, he had fetched them drinks within 60 seconds of their being seated. Then, a few minutes after that, he got around to asking for our drink order.
My wife tried ordering one of their selection of pizzas on the menu. The server replied, "no. No pizza here." We pointed to the menu, showing him it was their menu, with a variety of pizzas. He said, "you want pizza, you go next door." So, that was odd.
Instead, we each ordered cheese burgers. They were freshly-made, and they did arrive quickly after we ordered. But, they were disappointing. Bland flavor. The fries were a miss, too. No seasoning or flavor to speak of.
Lastly, the bill came to 30 Euros. That's a fair chunk of change for 2 weak burgers and two lemonades.
