Secure Your Lunch Reservations Weeks Ahead

With a permanent population of fewer than 100 people, Gerberoy has only a handful of dining options, including the charming Le Vieux Logis and the tea room at the Henri Le Sidaner Gardens. During the spring and summer weekends, these spots fill up weeks in advance, leaving unprepared travelers with nowhere to eat.

To avoid being left hungry, book your table well ahead of your trip. Alternatively, embrace a local French tradition and pack a high-quality picnic. You can find excellent artisanal cheeses, fresh baguettes, and local cider in the nearby town of Gournay-en-Bray or Songeons, and enjoy them on the grassy banks near the ancient ramparts of Gerberoy.
