La truffe noire, Gastronomic restaurant and hotel in downtown Brive-la-Gaillarde, France.
La Truffe Noire is a gastronomic restaurant with attached hotel in downtown Brive-la-Gaillarde, centered on regional products and black truffles in its cooking. The building displays distinctive neo-Basque architecture housing both dining rooms and guest accommodations.
The establishment began in 1927 when the Cotton hotel was acquired and underwent expansion in 1935. The neo-Basque architectural style was developed by architects Louis and Jacques Macary.
The restaurant reflects the culinary identity of the Corrèze region, where black truffles hold cultural importance in local cuisine. Diners experience how seasonal products from surrounding producers shape the menu.
The restaurant operates Tuesday through Saturday for lunch and dinner service, while the hotel reception stays open around the clock for guests. It helps to check exact opening times upon arrival and book reservations in advance.
The interior displays a rare neo-Basque design language unusual in central France, giving the place its own visual character. This architectural choice stands out sharply from the typical French countryside buildings around it.
