Le Mangevins, French restaurant in Tain-l'Hermitage, France.
Le Mangevins is a restaurant housed in a restored forge building featuring modern dining spaces with grey chairs and suspension lamps at 7 Rue des Herbes. Service runs from noon to 1:15 pm and again in the evening until around 8:30 pm, with the kitchen offering only a fixed menu each day.
The restaurant opened in 2007 inside a former blacksmith workshop, transforming an old industrial space into a dining destination within the Crozes-Hermitage wine area. This conversion honors the site's past while establishing a modern culinary presence.
The restaurant reflects the vision of a French-Japanese couple who blend their cooking traditions into dishes like shredded rabbit and cod with celery purée and yuzu butter. Each plate shows how their different backgrounds come together in the kitchen.
The restaurant operates Monday through Friday during set service hours, making it easy to plan your visit in advance. Reservations are essential since only a single menu is offered each day and seating is limited.
The menu changes every day based on what the market offers seasonally, meaning no two visits are the same. Though the price stays within a set range, the dishes adapt to what is available at that moment.
