Coffee is very good at the Lion d'or, which in itself is a good enough reason to go. This café, ran by efficient and nice ladies, is also a Point Relais.

Really fun spot to stop during a hike in the countryside. We arrived late (2pm) and still got a great lunch. Great local wine and nice banter with the friendly staff!
