    • La Forge du Vieil Alby, a delicious, unpretentious address in the Tarn


      Open the door to an atypical culinary universe in the heart of an emblematic place steeped in history, in the city center of Albi, 25 minutes from Gaillac. La Forge du Vieil Alby is the new adventure of Bernard Gisquet, a cooking enthusiast who above all likes to share good dishes and good times. The establishment is experiencing a true renaissance in 2023 under the influence of a man with a big heart who wishes to transmit stories, flavors and emotions through homemade recipes. Successful bet !


      La Forge du Vieil Alby, an authentic restaurant to discover in the Tarn


      Throughout the renovation, Bernard Gisquet preserved the soul of the place and retained the charm of the stone walls, the particularity of the low doors and the roundness of the vaulted arches to create his own universe. A touch of modernity is brought by the furniture with simple, but elegant tables and chairs. Settle into a cozy and warm room, a passionate team working in the kitchen and serving to offer you a timeless moment. The space can also be privatized for your special events, do not hesitate to inquire.


      La Forge du Vieil Alby, quality products to taste in the Tarn


      Traditional, bistronomic or even brasserie, whatever name you give it, Bernard Gisquet's only objective is to delight you. Self-taught in his cooking, he now reworks the recipes of grandmothers and so-called great chefs, but also lets his imagination express itself through tasty and balanced dishes. On the menu, only fresh, seasonal products are carefully processed and served by his team or by Bernard Gisquet himself, who also masters the art of serving and takes pleasure in bringing you your dish. Dress your plate with homemade bread and finish your glass of wine which was the perfect match for the menu ordered. La Forge du Vieil Alby is the freedom to express yourself in an atypical setting with personalized cuisine.

    An exceptional experience in all respects. The marinated sea bass starter was outstanding and the Averyron beef was just superb. Excellent service in a very warm and welcoming ambiance. The restoration of the space is an architectural triumph. Very much recommended.

  • "Disappointing"

    3 / 5 Reviews posted by Meredith W (Castres, France) on 28/11/2023

    Excruciatingly slow service--not the waiters' fault, we suspect, but the kitchen. We were all ordering from the offered menus of the day, so why it took so long in a half-empty restaurant we cannot...
