Between the Cheret valley and the lakes of the Tronçais forest, Le Lion d'Or welcomes you in the heart of the Bourbonnais country side.
You will have a chance to rediscover the traditions of countryside hostels here, in this two hundred year old building where everything is calm and relaxing.
A huge terrace overlooking a park full of trees illuminated by a lake and with a playground for children gives you all the time in the world to enjoy this moment of gourmet pleasure.
The décor of this restaurant that does not need to be introduced is friendly and warm.
The inspiration is clearly country side and the three dining rooms will charm you on different levels: the class and elegance of beautifully set tables, the authenticity of visible wood and of other times, the warmth of a central fireplace that will help you feel at home here.
Once seated, the Chef presents you with a menu where regional and classic recipes dominate, always reinterpreted with his very personal creativity. 
Robert Michel is a passionate man who was taught at the best schools: at the Tour d'Argent or at Lucas Carton's…
He lets his inventiveness run free, his know how takes you into his world of many flavours.
Talent and passion seem never to have been better used than in his charming establishment, the result of a true love for cuisine.
At Le Lion d'Or in Estivareilles you will appreciate the welcome, the smiles, and the collection of Michelin guides dating back to before the war; you will enjoy tasting an ideal gourmet menu that reflects a classic menu with a wide range of choices.
The menu changes according to seasons and the
