If the post relays of the past are the inns of
today, then Le Grand Monarque has kept going, progressing, asserting
itself… to finally become the Restaurant of reference in Chartres.
It has been mentioned in the famous Michelin guide
for a hundred years and is located in the heart of town, not
far from the small streets of the historic centre and the cathedral.
The institution has been run by the same family
for a few generations…
The Jallerat family is attending to the good functioning
of it all, and it can pride itself with having brought many
changes through the years, all to the better.
The restaurant was entirely renovated and made
even nicer very recently, it now presents a bourgeois décor,
with classic accents and some adapted modern touches.
Laurent Clément’s cuisine is of excellent
quality and is in no way tiresome.
In this aspect as well tradition lives on, but
the Chef knows how to attract new customers, quickly becoming
regulars, with his compositions…
The wine cellar is a nice one, and the sommelier
is very keen on sharing his knowledge and passion about the
wines of the Val de Loire!
The Chef has chosen to create an idéal
gourmet menu that clearly reflects his know-how, and at a very
soft price…
And you cannot talk about the Grand Monarque without mentioning
the welcome, the smiles and attentions of Nathalie and Bertrand.
Attentive to their guests’ every wish, they will ensure that
your experience is truly a nice and relaxing one, in a beautiful
establishment where you can enjoy a very pretty terrace in the
shade when the weather allows.
The menu changes according to seasons and the
market.
