Of the restaurants around the chateau, La Brochetterie , 16 rue Henri-IV, is the best, serving good grills and fish in a pleasant, family atmosphere for around 140F/€21.35 a la carte, or from 52F/€7.95 for a mini-menu, while O'Gascon , at 13 rue du Chateau, is the most popular and reasonable - its 140F/€21.35 menu tradition is excellent. Alternatively, try Chez Maman , a decent creperie/cidrerie opposite the castle at 6 rue du Chateau, or L'Entracte , opposite the municipal theatre in rue St-Louis, which offers a range of original salads and other vegetarian plates. For a splurge, try La Table d'Hote , 1 Chemin du Hedas (closed Sun), with gourmet menus at 118F/€18 and 149F/€22.70; or, near the station, Au Fin Gourmet , 24 av Gaston-Lacoste (closed Sun evening & Mon), with several game-oriented menus from 95F/€14.50. Brasseries include L'Aragon at 18 bd des Pyrenees, and popular Le Berry at the south end of rue Gachet - arrive early to be sure of a table or be prepared to queue, but it's worth the wait to sample their demi-Chateaubriand with sauce bearnaise .
