Rue de Vresse 93, 5550 Membre-sur-Semois
The restaurant at Hôtel des Roches is in Membre-sur-Semois, making it a particularly local option for a stay in the village. The hotel retains an older Ardennes setting overlooking the Semois, and its restaurant combines a general seasonal menu with a distinctive midweek offer: Wednesday service includes Vietnamese and Thai dishes. This gives the address a different emphasis from the many purely regional dining rooms elsewhere in the valley. The kitchen says it uses fresh, seasonal products. Lunch and dinner are both offered, with published service from 11:30 to 15:00 and from 18:00 to 22:00, seven days a week. Those separate kitchen windows are worth noting if you are planning to eat between activities; the bar remains open more broadly through the day, but that does not mean the full menu is served continuously. There is room for around fifty diners indoors and forty on the terrace, and private restaurant bookings can be discussed with the team. An outside table puts the meal in the riverside setting when the weather is suitable. For a larger gathering or the Wednesday cuisine, reserve and ask what will be available on your particular date. The hotel also describes its position beside the river as a starting point for exploring the surrounding natural area. The restaurant's address is 93 Rue de Vresse in Membre. Its direct telephone and email are the simplest way to arrange a table and check current service details before setting out.

Rue du Château 64, 5550 Orchimont
Le Comptoir de Bernard is a small restaurant and brasserie in Orchimont, with cooking rooted in the surrounding Ardennes. Bernard works with local producers and artisans, and the restaurant describes direct, short supply chains as central to its approach. The scale is intimate: the dining page lists ten places inside and sixteen outside, with a terrace overlooking the surrounding countryside in summer. Its food changes with the time of day. Breakfast brings together bread, pastries, cheese and cold meats, while the brunch adds items such as smoked salmon and omelette. At lunchtime, the published choices include soup, sandwiches, a croque-monsieur, omelettes and a dish of the day. Homemade dessert and ice cream also appear on the menu, making a shorter food stop possible without committing to an evening menu. Dinner follows a different rhythm. A three-course meal is offered by reservation, with the ingredients changing through the seasons. The restaurant gives asparagus in spring, lamb around Easter and festive-season game as examples of that approach. Ask what is planned for your date rather than treating those examples as year-round dishes. The brasserie is also a place to explore Belgian drinks, including regional and Trappist beers, fruit juices and homemade hot chocolate. Published daytime opening is Tuesday to Sunday, 10:30–18:00, with evening visits arranged in advance. The address is 64 Rue du Château in Orchimont; telephone Bernard directly or use the restaurant email to reserve.
