The story

La Petite Gayole, Thuillies: French Bistro with a 2026 Michelin Bib Gourmand

La Petite Gayole is a French bistro at Place de Thuillies 12 in Thuillies, Belgium. The Michelin Bib Gourmand it received in 2026 recognises cooking that offers good quality at good value.

A village café with bourgeois roots

The room keeps the feel of a village café. A wooden bar counter runs through the space, and the banquettes and chairs are built from solid timber. Posters on the walls recall local fairs and scenes of rural life, a nod to the bourgeois cooking that inspires the menu.

Generous, traditional plates

The kitchen works from traditional French dishes, cooked generously and with plenty of flavour. Gault&Millau gave the restaurant 13 points in 2026 and singled out the warm welcome and familiar dishes that live up to their promise.
