Bouchee Double - Angoulême

Found this restaurant by chance, we had a rendezvous to attend nearby so we're in a hurry. Both of us chose the Salmon from the main menu. It was cooked to perfection and accompanied by a delicious velvety pink seafood sauce with delightful fresh vegetables beautifully presented and cooked carefully. Olives and bread were put on the table and a lovely carafe of fresh tasting cold water. Only disappointed that we didn't have time to stay for dessert but we will be back again. The staff were friendly and helpful, they were happy to help when we explained we were in a hurry for our appointment. We sat outside and there was some traffic, so would sit closer to or inside the restaurant next time.

This restaurant must have changed its name recently. It is now "Bouchée Double". We had an excellent lunch there, and the food was truly fresh.The service was first-class .The toilet was clean and modern and the ambiance was pleasant and comfortable. It is good value for money. The extensive menu is clearly shown with prices on three chalkboards on the wall and tips are included.

Wanted somewhere nice to eat at lunchtime with my Mother. Found this Bistrot not far from the shops. Lovely decor in fact we felt like we were in the Uk. For us this is nice as we have lived in France 30 years . The food was very good and the service very friendly. We would go there again.

We have been in France for just over two weeks and our visit here encapsulated what I like about bistrot/brasseries. Straight forward menu, good menu formulas, red velvet banquettes! We chose the Compris version, 32.50€ for 3 courses off the a la cartel with aperitif, wine and coffee.Starters of salmon tartare, fois gras (+ 4€) very good, rognons de veaux great, piece de boeuf had no chewy bits! Potatoes wth the kidneys to die for, oil and garlic and salt! Had a plum tart which was very good and a reasonable selection of cheese to finish. Wine included was the wine of the month and good for the price.Very friendly staff, helpful although not much english.It got quite full after 8.30 but there is plenty of spaceWould go again.

We visited here in July with some friends, we were hoping for a light meal, but on ordering the duck, well done, the portion that came out could have fed a family of four, and the meat was blue. On the plus side, the wine was good as were the staff.
