The story
Just outside Compiègne, in the quiet village of Rethondes, Auberge du Pont de Rethondes is a destination for those who appreciate thoughtful, seasonal French cooking. The restaurant is run by Delphine and Ludovic Colpart, who together create an atmosphere that is both welcoming and precise.
The kitchen, led by Ludovic Colpart, offers a range of menus designed to suit different occasions. Alongside a fixed menu at 56€, guests can choose from a “Carte du Chef” and “Menus Sur Mesure” — bespoke options that allow for a more personalised experience. Special menus, such as the one for Father’s Day, are also prepared throughout the year. The cooking is rooted in French culinary tradition, with an emphasis on fresh ingredients and careful technique.
The restaurant has been recognised by the Michelin guide with a “Recommended” award, placing it among the region’s noteworthy dining rooms. The setting is classic and comfortable, with outdoor seating available in warmer months, and the space is accessible for wheelchair users. Private parties can also be arranged.
Whether you come for a weekday lunch or a celebratory dinner, the Auberge du Pont de Rethondes offers a genuine taste of French hospitality, just a short drive from the centre of Compiègne.
