France’s oldest inn offers a blend of traditional and innovative cuisine. Its star dish? Rouen-style duck!
La Couronne is one of the town’s institutions. The "oldest inn in France", it has been welcoming gourmands since 1345. Its half-timbered façade, geraniums, and multicoloured flags make this place stand out from the crowd. Numerous celebrities, from Princess Grace of Monaco to Salvador Dali and Serge Gainsbourg, have flocked here to sample the most famous traditional dish: Rouen-style duck. In the kitchen, Vincent Taillefer creates a new menu every season, blending tradition with innovation.

C'est vrai que c'est vieux ! Depuis 1345, comme ils l'annoncent généreusement.
Classique d'une manière un peu vieillotte.
Le menu fixe contenait beaucoup de bonnes choses.
Le foie gras et le fromage en pâtisserie avec du miel sont deux exemples remarquables. Pour mon palais, la plupart des plats étaient trop lourds, trop traditionnels. Cela vaut la peine d'y aller pour découvrir les salles et l'atmosphère un peu pompeuse.
