With eight outlets, the brasserie retains the individuality of each of the locations no more so than Raymond's Cheltenham edition, while maintaining a uniform standard of food and service. The menu has several signature dishes like Maman Blanc's miscellany of salads, Loch Fyne mussels and Burgundy snails in garlic herb butter.
Mains to suit all, and ofcourse all inspired by French cuisine often with a traditional English element such as Aberdeenshire rump steak and chips,Raymond's smoked haddock, leek and gruyère fish cake. There is a healthy selection of children's options and a wide enough variety of food that will appeal to almost everyone.
The wine list is French in concept, but also includes a good healthy selection of New World wines. In addition to a range of French cheeses, selected by the fantastic Premier Cheese Company, you could settle for their favourite dessert, baked a sharp rhubarb crumble or something more stodgy and chocolate based for the comfort eaters out there. Expect to pay between £15 and £20 for a main, service is friendly, full of knowlegde and prompt. Atmosphere is fantastic and positively buzzing on the weekend, with a rush of humdrum and excitment coming from the open view kitchens.
Braisserie Blanc is most certainly one of our favourite resturants in Cheltenham.
