I had, for fun, a bowl of chili and a bacon cheeseburger. The chili was Texas-style (no beans) and was very good; it as, indeed, better than much of the chili I had the two years I lived in Texas -- which alas isn't as high praise as it might be. The bacon cheeseburger would benefit from crispy American-style bacon, I think, but the French cheese was an improvement on the usual. The fries were well above average. Georgie, the pub pup, was also friendly and will be happy to collect any voluntary 'lunch tax' he might be offered -- more than is good for him, likely. The bar was well stocked, though the responsibility of driving kept me to a single beer. And then there's the view. We were determined on arrival (we hadn't noticed the name) to sit inside and relax after driving several hours with several more to go, but that view is not to be missed -- especially sitting in the shade on a sunny summer day.

If you go here only to sit and see the view your stomach will be full of it's beauty. We both had…read moredelicious hamburgers, (his with a French cheese) and then an order of fries. All of the trimmings were so fresh, like they pulled the cucumbers from their own garden! It might as well been a steak dinner with a violinist playing, because this place is magical everywhere.

It was a sunny day so the outside tables were full of people, and the food looked good. There were three of us. One ordered the smoked salmon and potato pizza because when are you ever going to see a smoked salmon and potato pizza on a menu again? She enjoyed it. I had a bucket of mussels which were pretty good. Hubby had a salad that was pretty basic. All in all, it was a satisfactory lunch. Nothing special, but OK. Our server was friendly and the food came quickly.

Love this place! Fantastic authentic French brasserie…read more Cognac, France was the location for my husband's birthday. It was a rainy, gray day while we were out walking and found Coq d'Or at 33 Place Francois 1er for lunch. What a delightful restaurant. We sat in a corner window overlooking their personal fish market and the square outside. The menu was excellent and we ordered oysters on the half shell, duck salad, steak and washed it down with a draft of local beer. With his umbrella, my husband grabbed the friendly staff and danced to "singing in the rain". They played music from the 40's and 50's throughout the restaurant. We really enjoyed this restaurant the most while in Cognac and we were lucky to just find it. Fresh Seafood, Great Bar, Great Location
