  • 1. Baud et Millet

    $$$

    With a cellar full of fromage—and a vast wine stock that you peruse in lieu of a list—Baud et Millet is a good place to get acquainted with some of the 246 different French cheeses that Charles de Gaulle famously blamed for making this such a complex, and thus difficult, country to govern. Order from the cheese buffet and serve yourself from the downstairs cellar, or start with a cherry-tomato-and-Roquefort clafoutis, then move on to Camembert flambéed in Calvados. You must buzz to gain entry, and that's just the first element of the unique experience here. Genuine stinky-cheese lovers should know some cheeses here aren't as potent as can be had elsewhere in France.

  • 2. Café Français

    $$$

    Situated on a grande place in the Vieille Ville, with cathedral views and a traditional menu of solid sustenance, this venerable bistro attracts those looking for an all-day mixture of café and restaurant. It's the quintessential spot for people-watching over a coffee or meal. Try for a table on the terrace. The view over Place Pey-Berland is never less than diverting; however, some say you end up paying for the place more than the plate.

    5–6 pl. Pey-Berland, Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, 33000, France
    05–56–52–96–69

    Known For

    • Central location beside the cathedral
    • Gorgeous views over Place Pey-Berland
    • Terrace tables for people watching
  • 3. L'Estacade

    $$$

    Le tout Bordeaux comes to this trendy glass-encased restaurant, which hangs spectacularly over the Garonne River, for its privileged views of Bordeaux proper and the 18th-century Place de la Bourse on the opposite bank. The cuisine is creative but not edgy (imagine sesame-and-soy-marinated veal, or mullet tartare with cream and fish eggs), while the wine list focuses on young Bordeaux. The setting is sleek modern with a casual, sometimes noisy crowd. The city lights make views better at night.

    Quai de Queyries, Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, 33100, France
    05–57–54–02–50

    Known For

    • River views by day, city views by night
    • Contemporary, sleek atmosphere
    • Quiet location away from the bustle of the city center
  • 4. La Filadière

    $$$

    Set in an ideal spot on the ledge road between Blaye and Bourg nestling up to the banks of the Gironde, this small family run restaurant in a pretty old stone house (which also has two guest rooms) focuses on traditional French fare made with farm-fresh ingredients. The restaurant is open on weekends and must be booked in advance.

    11 Corniche de la Gironde, Bourg sur Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
    05–57–64–94–05
