cooking that everyone will enjoy and a warm and friendly welcome in Vessy

For the last two years the restaurant has been under the management of Gilbert Renaud, former right-hand man to Philippe Chevrier at the Domaine de Châteauvieux, and his wife Nathalie. The Auberge Communale du Grand Donzel extends a warm and friendly welcome to you.


The restaurant has chosen to offer you a regularly updated menu, featuring exquisite dishes prepared from fresh local and seasonal produce. Set in its own grounds right next to the Vessy sports complex, our 

restaurant is the perfect family destination. Grown-ups can enjoy a leisurely meal while keeping an eye on their children having fun outside.
