This is a very unfair review. It is rural France and most places are only open lunch and/or evening. It is France and things are different and you have to inform yourself. Times of opening change between winter/summer, always check opening times. Booking is important as its a small place. If there was seating they would have served you drinks and desserts. This is a very rare and amazing resource for us vegans living in rural France and we are regular customers and do not recognise your description of them. It's very difficult being vegan here and you feel very isolated. Don't knock this amazing resource that provides good vegan food, are lovely people and have legendary vegan desserts. This is a special and lovely place. Bonus is it's near an amazing lake with loads of activities too. Look up Lake St. Pardoux. In summer it's warm for swimming too. Can't recommend Bistrot La Forge enough.
