This resto occupies a charming site in a charming village and thus has a lock on the ambience but also a lock on the tourist traffic as a result. The service is good and so is the food. BUT the portions for too many dishes are stingy for the price. For example, I ordered their sausage and "truffade" (a tasty local mix of potato, creme and cheese). Cost: 12 euros. My travel companion ordered a hamburger with (local) blue cheese, quantity of which was microscopic. For my order, I received one little sausage alongside a moderate portion of truf and 3 lettuce leaves. Even in high-cost Belgium you would receive at least two sausages. That is an aberration for this region. Cantal is known for its low cost of living and its generous dishes, which don't vary much but are copious. For that reason, no more than a rating of three for this joint.
We dined at Au Bout du Monde four times during a recent holiday in Mandailles. We tried the burger, the steak, the grilled pork (Friday only), several deserts, cold cuts and the cheese platter. We enjoyed almost all of it, and were consistently impressed by the quality of the ingredients. Highlights were the burger with blue cheese sauce (the beef had real flavour) and the brioche with caramel sauce. Staff was very friendly and spoke enough English to compensate for our poor French. This restaurant offers uncomplicated dishes, reliably well prepared and using excellent ingredients.
The staff were very helpful despite my terrible French! The menu was a bit limited but the food was very tasty and good value. Friday night was hog roast night with no choice on the menu but very nice. On the previous night we had frogs legs, burger, steak, all good. Even my fussy daughter found something she liked!
The staff are very good- and sitting outside is the place place to be- we booked as it is very popular.7 of us ate- and we all enjoyed our meals, from the local speciality, beef, to the salad and the truffade. Beautiful lunch is glorious weather
