In the heart of Clermont-Ferrand’s historic center, Les Petits Crus offers a one-of-a-kind culinary adventure for cheese lovers. This cheese restaurant in Clermont-Ferrand stands out for its innovative approach to tasting, blending flavors and discoveries.
One of the highlights of this cheese restaurant in Clermont-Ferrand is its playful approach to cheese tasting. At Les Petits Crus, you don’t just order a board like anywhere else. You choose a tasting package, with 4 or 6 wine and cheese pairings. Each wine is served in a numbered vial, and each raw-milk cheese is carefully selected. The goal? To create surprising, well-balanced pairings full of character.
Each pairing comes with an explanatory card. You’ll discover the origin of the products, tasting tips, and fun anecdotes. No need to be an expert: it’s simple, fun, and accessible. You’ll leave with a satisfied palate… and slightly more educated taste buds.
Cheeses aged by a Meilleur Ouvrier de FranceThe restaurant works with François Bourgon, Meilleur Ouvrier de France, to select its cheeses. All are made with raw milk and chosen for their finesse, intensity, or uniqueness. Truffle Brillat-Savarin, Bleu d’Alcas, or aged Comté: every tasting tells a story.
The wines come from independent winemakers, often from organic farming. Les Petits Crus also offers its own exclusive cuvées, created in collaboration with Domaine de Revel. Each wine is selected to pair perfectly with its matching cheese.
Whether you prefer creamy or full-bodied cheeses, you’ll find something you love. The team offers 5 types of tastings, ranked by cheese intensity. You choose the quantity (4 or 6 pairings), then let yourself be guided through a numbered journey, from 1 to 4 or 1 to 6.
You can also add a charcuterie board, desserts, or even try the wine and chocolate pairings for a sweet finish.
Les Petits Crus offers cheese tastings, which are vegetarian. Plus, the restaurant offers alcohol-free alternatives upon request. The idea is simple: to make this tasting a personalized experience where everyone feels at ease.
