At a glance
El Trull d'en Francesc is a restaurant in Boadella d'Empordà, in the Alt Empordà area of Girona. Its cooking is rooted in Ampurdanese cuisine, with a menu structure that gives traditional local cooking a central place. The restaurant is suited to diners looking for a sit-down meal based on regional culinary traditions rather than a quick or informal stop.
The offer includes several menu formats, including a traditional menu, the restaurant's own Trull menu, a gourmet menu and a seasonal tasting menu. A separate autumn menu focuses on wild mushrooms, giving the cooking a clear connection with seasonal produce. Menus allow the restaurant to present a broader meal experience, while the à la carte selection and dessert menu provide additional choice for different styles of visit.
Vegetarian and vegan alternatives are included in the restaurant's offer, and gluten-free options are also available. Families are catered for with a children's menu. These choices make the restaurant suitable for mixed parties where diners may have different dietary preferences or requirements, although individual needs are best raised during the reservation process.
Wine forms part of the experience, with a selection that includes still wines, sparkling wines and sweet wines. The drinks list complements the food-led character of the restaurant and gives meals a choice of regional or wider wine styles without changing the focus from the cuisine.
Located on Placeta de l'Oli in the village of Boadella d'Empordà, El Trull d'en Francesc provides a base for a food-focused visit to the Alt Empordà. The restaurant is also positioned for trips around the northern Costa Brava, with its location described in relation to Roses and La Jonquera. Reservations are available through the restaurant's online service, by telephone and via WhatsApp. Weekend and public-holiday dining is organised in two sittings, so advance planning is particularly relevant for those periods.
