Courtepaille Alencon - Cerisé

Ok so I had a coupon for $2 off any sandwich I ordered the roast beef on multigrain.

If this place wasn't in the nearest food to my office, I would probably never go.

This throwback to that 80s food court staple has very little going for it - except maybe free Wi-Fi. Even the cinnamon buns were lacking decadence.

It is found just off the Alençon Nord exit 18 on the Rouen-Le Mans A28. And provides a more relaxing, comfortable and quality alternative to the service station restaurant at the same exit, for only a little extra money and time, well worth it. Typical Courtepaille cuisine : simple yet tasty grilled dishes.Very welcoming service : a strong point.Would return and do recommend.

The reviews here of Courtepaille Alencon aren't very positive, but I think it deserves a little better. We came here quite late, and it's not at all obvious how to get into the carpark, so we circled round it a few times, trying to get in! When we got in the restaurant, we had to wait for a fairly long time to be seated, during which no one said anything to us. However, when we were eventfully seated, things got better. We ordered the fast option and it certainly was fast. However, the food still tasted nice and the general ambience was pleasant. The wifi worked, we were attended to, and it wasn't too expensive.A perfectly adequate restaurant in my opinion!
