The best French cuisine restaurants Vendée

Enjoy the view of the ocean from the terrace of this crêperie, which doubles as a bar, with a nice modern decor. In addition to the galettes and crêpes, the menu offers brasserie-style dishes: mixed salads, grilled meats, mussels, burgers with bread from the local baker, including the Vendéen made with Vendée ham and Reblochon cheese, with chips and salad. Galettes to compose yourself or specials with among the customer's favourites the one with andouille from Vire or the one with salmon and leek fondue. For a sweet note, a caramel and salted butter pancake.

A menu made up of 100% fresh products, that's Bistrot de Lila, a small bistro in the heart of the embankment. The large terrace stretches along the waterfront and welcomes you in the morning for a coffee. The green decor sets the trend: a cuisine concocted from products of passionate local producers. Among the specialties: woks (chicken, cuttlefish or veggie), burgers including a veggie, club sandwiches; brunches. On the main course, homemade fish and chips, fish from the fish market, prime rib, poke bowl are always a hit.

Anchored at Place Saint-Louis, come aboard the Winch whose terrace faces the port. Good quality cuisine, varied menu, good value for money. Dedicated to the sea, the decor, racy, original and warm, is worth the detour: parquet floor, leather armchairs, navigation objects. Upstairs, another room, another atmosphere, sober and cosy, used for groups. In winter, the menu offers elaborate dishes, in summer it is oriented towards brasserie dishes: burger, fish & chips, filet of sole, St Pierre, mussels in season. For dessert: brioche perdue.

In the heart of the pretty historic town, a traditional and modern home cooking. The menu alternates between fish and meat, with a few burgers, and we note the care taken with the presentations: tiramisu with gambas and smoked salmon, then duck breast with spiced honey, and chocolate heart. The menu allows the chef to work with fresh seasonal products, while keeping the "sweet and sour" spirit that remains his trademark. A final word on the setting, between the main room, the veranda at the back, with a view of the river, plus the terrace and a lounge
