Why go
Auberge de la Distillerie is worth considering for a quiet Chapelle-des-Bois meal when location and an auberge-style setting matter more than a documented chef, awards, or cocktail program. Treat it as a practical local booking rather than a destination splurge; Brasserie Le Gogant is the clearer choice if you want an explicit seasonal-cuisine, €€ value signal.
About Auberge de la Distillerie
Auberge de la Distillerie is a Chapelle Des Bois venue with a casual dress code.
That makes it best treated as a practical option to check directly rather than a restaurant to choose on the basis of a documented specialty.
Book for Chapelle Des Bois convenience
The reason to consider Auberge de la Distillerie is simple: it is in Chapelle Des Bois and the dress code is casual. For diners comparing other names, Auberge de l'Union, Brasserie Le Gogant, Chalet Regain, Le Gai Pinson, and NONNÀ can be considered as alternatives, but their specific cuisine, pricing, and formats should be confirmed directly with each venue.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Auberge de la Distillerie reads like a Jura‑plateau auberge: remote, quietly scenic and rooted in a long regional hospitality tradition. The setting (conifer forests, cattle pastures and late‑lingering snow) shapes both the mood and the menu. The write‑up emphasizes an agrarian logic where seasonal yields drive the kitchen, and the building’s name gestures to a local history of eaux‑de‑vie, so the place feels lived‑in and historically layered rather than polished. Expect an unhurried, intimate country experience that foregrounds terroir and the austere beauty of the Haut‑Doubs landscape.
Best For
This auberge is best for diners who plan a deliberate trip for regional cooking rather than a chance stop. It suits families and groups who appreciate hearty, terroir‑driven French mountain cuisine, as well as travelers seeking a weekend escape into the Jura. The menu’s focus on protected local products like Comté and dishes built around seasonal foraged and farmed ingredients rewards guests who come ready to experience the place’s sense of origin and the rhythms of the plateau.
Ordering Tips
Focus on the regional signatures and dishes that showcase local produce: the Poulet aux morilles et vin jaune, Poulet au Comté and Croûte aux morilles are highlighted as house specialties, and the Jambon fumé du Haut‑Jura points to local charcuterie traditions. Because the kitchen follows an auberge logic, what the land produces, lean into seasonal plates and items that reference Comté or local smoked meats for a true sense of place.
