In Paimpol, you will live with memories of cod fishing in Iceland during campaigns that led to many shipwrecks, but were so lucrative for survivors. L'Islandais is found in a house that belonged to one of the fishermen of this glorious period.

Here you have a varied choice: platters of seafood and mussels, wheat pancakes, buckwheat galettes and other local delicacies are available so make a choice. The Iceland styled homemade smoked salmon and blinis will make your mouth water. For the rest you have to choose between land and sea delicacies. Beef filets in Rossini style will satisfy some people while fried abalone and scallops will delight others.

We would love that institution. or rather these paillottes to thatched roofs— is open all year round. We could take advantage of its small prices and calm a craving for seafood, because here you need to come when you dream of a langoustines plate or any other shell. It is also here for meunière sole or one of the fish of the moment. It is not a gastronomic address, it is just a beautiful address to enjoy the treasures of the nearby sea that they call shells, crustaceans or fish. And if you want crepe or galette you can take it to Mao, even if the quality is at our taste lower than the seafood. The staff were friendly and helpful.

This institution is named after its name; simplicity will be welcomed in a rather modern cozy decor, in a warm way with a staff for small care.

On the menu, which changes regularly, Scallops and roast prawns, calf sweetbreads with sesame seeds... enough to awaken your envy to sit at this table several times a year... Note, late evening service.

La Tête noire is first of all a remarkable cachet whether you are on the terrace facing the magnificent Mathurin Méheut Museum or inside behind the colourful stained glass windows. The preserved heritage serves as a beautiful showcase for an equally brilliant cuisine. The lunch formula varies every day with proposals drawing from the heart of the woods or the Brittany coast with fresh products with the flavours of the land and the sea. The chef's suggestions on the slate enhance the value of the terroir and fresh produce. Generous desserts are a hymn to greediness: strawberry cheesecake, rice pudding caramel with salted butter, profiteroles? The whole is accompanied by organic wine.
