The story
Just outside Lausanne, in the quiet village of Le Mont-sur-Lausanne, Auberge Communale Le Mont offers a straightforward invitation: "Attablez vous, on s'occupe de tout." The team, in both the dining room and kitchen, aims to give guests the best in simplicity, kindness, and sharing. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday, with a midweek lunch formula called Midi au P'tit-Mont — a suggestion of the week at 21 CHF or a full menu at 37 CHF. The cooking is seasonal, driven by a passion for honest French cuisine.
The restaurant has earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand, a recognition that rewards good quality, good value cooking — exactly the kind of place where you can settle in for a well-made meal without pretense. The atmosphere is warm and uncomplicated, with outdoor seating available and an accessible space for those with reduced mobility. Free parking and a nearby bus stop make it easy to reach.
Auberge Communale Le Mont will close for renovations during the first half of 2027, but plans to reopen and continue serving the same thoughtful, seasonal French cuisine. For now, it remains a reliable, welcoming address in the Lausanne area.
