Great places to brunch in Touraine

Ah, the sweet torpor of a Sunday in wintertime, when it takes you ages to emerge from under your quilt, your appetite gradually grows and time is not important… And what fits in perfectly with this delightfully lazy living? Brunch, of course! Here are top venues in Touraine for a gourmet ‘11 to 3’.

Brunch at the château

Before you even discover the delights of the buffet at the Château d’Artigny estate, you’ll already be feasting your eyes on the place itself. The size and architecture of this magnificent 5-star establishment, which used to belong to a famous perfumer, leaves you no choice. One Sunday a month, this hotel organises a sophisticated luxury brunch, which everyone can enjoy. A great opportunity (€59 per person, all-inclusive) to treat yourselves to a lovely bite of Sunday magic! Brunch served from 11.30 am to 1.30 pm. It would be better to book early, places are scarce!

In Coteaux-sur-Loire, the Château de Rochecotte is not to be outdone. Once a month, from 11 am to 2.30 pm, you will be able to taste a wide range of dishes: pancakes, avocado toast, cheese and charcuterie platters, verrines, desserts, viennese pastries, hot drinks, fruit juice… 48€/person.

Opening in spring 2024 in La Chapelle-sur-Loire, Nuances also caters for brunch lovers, with a breathtaking view of the River Loire!
