Michelin Bib Gourmand value

The Bib Gourmand is Michelin's "good quality, good value cooking" tier — typically €25–€35 for a full meal. France has about 950 of them, vs 600 Michelin-starred restaurants. The official guide lists them by region; this tool filters by city, cuisine and value, and tells you which ones are realistically walk-in vs 2-week-advance.

What this tool actually solves

The Michelin Guide lists 950+ Bib Gourmands in France. The guide gives you addresses and a one-liner but doesn't rank by value. A "Bib Gourmand" listing assumes a maximum prix of €36 in 2025, but within that ceiling some are €20 and some are €34 — the difference between a smart dinner and an expensive one. This tool ranks by €/meal-value.

How to read the result

Each row is a Bib Gourmand in your city, sorted by estimated price. The "reservation" column tells you realistically when you need to book. The "value" column is a 1–5 score for € spent / food quality.

Limitations

The Bib Gourmand list is updated annually in March. New additions and removals can be 10–15% per year. Some addresses close mid-year. Always verify with the restaurant before walking in.

FAQ

Is there a difference between Bib and 1-star?

Yes. Bib Gourmand = "good cooking, good value" (max ~€36 meal). 1-star = "very good cooking in its category" (€40–€80). 2-star = "excellent cooking, worth a detour" (€80–€150). 3-star = "exceptional, worth a special trip" (€150–€400+).

Is the Bib list accurate for value?

Mostly yes, but it favours the comfort bistro over the ethnic hole-in-the-wall. A Vietnamese phở restaurant in Paris's 13e is rarely a Bib — but for value/quality it often beats a 1-star restaurant. Use this list as a filter, not the final word.
