The best Fusion and international cuisine restaurants Channel Islands

This small restaurant in the capital of Guernsey is a well-known address for the locals. Which, to be honest, is always a good sign. On the menu of this restaurant, which faces the port of Saint-Peter-Port, you'll find classic dishes that are always well prepared, from simple sandwiches to plates of shellfish, but also good dishes with Mediterranean, Italian and Portuguese influences. Because the chef, originally from the Madeira archipelago, likes to marry the flavors of his home with the products of Guernsey.

An institution in Guernsey! A café-brewery where there are always people, at noon or in the evening. It is indeed very well located and welcomes the workers of the capital from the lunch break. At lunchtime, a large choice of sandwiches, pastas, salads and a hearty dish of the day. In the afternoon, it is an ideal place to have a coffee or a cream tea, while tasting some home-made cakes. In the evening, you can sit down to a seafood platter or quality international cuisine in the restaurant, which has a chic setting.

This chic restaurant is very popular with islanders and is located on the first floor of The Royal Yacht Hotel. It offers sophisticated international cuisine, with Executive Chef Inaka Weerasinghe at the helm since 2021, who brings an Australasian flair to a menu that blends local products with more exotic ingredients. The wine list is very well stocked with labels from all over the world. In short, a very good cuisine in a very sophisticated setting. You can also go there for the very nice view on the marina and the central square.

The small café at the (very) charming Hamptonne Museum is an excellent option for a light lunch of consistently high quality, before or after your visit. Here you'll find tapas and savoury bites, homemade sandwiches, some traditional Jersey dishes, cakes and pastries, and more. You'll be able to try them all, without breaking the bank, while sitting in the museum's very pleasant park. A great opportunity for a picnic, all in the charming setting of an old-fashioned farm. A delicious moment in prospect, with family or friends.

In this Michelin-starred restaurant, the menu marvelously mixes local products and flavors from elsewhere. The menu changes according to the seasons and new arrivals. If the adventurous are tempted by the 6-course surprise menu, the risk will remain minimal as the quality and mastery are there. In short, this address with its chic and neat setting will delight gourmets. It is quite simply one of the best restaurants in Great Britain and is constantly winning awards and distinctions. And in summer the terrace is very pleasant.

On the port of Saint-Aubin, sheltered in a courtyard or on the terrace, you will find at the Salty Dog a world cuisine, sometimes innovative and original, which blends happily with local products. You may or may not like the decor, but what counts is what is on the plate. Here are a few successful examples to give you an idea of the cuisine offered: teriyaki sauce breaded duck salad, Indian-style spicy crab fritters, mango and coriander shrimp grilled with salsa, banana pudding and Jersey Black Butter... Charming welcome.

Here, you can choose between the chic upstairs restaurant, which replicates the interior design of a boat, or the large pub on the first floor, with its modern decor, terrace and beautiful view of the port. Special mention for the friendly welcome, the charming patio at the back and the fish and seafood. We loved the Scottish salmon fishcake with cider-braised leeks. This is a great address, but it's a good idea to make a reservation, as it gets very busy in summer.

In the heart of the sumptuous Old Government House hotel, La Brasserie is a chic restaurant that is not out of place in the hotel's other facilities. Here, the atmosphere is relaxed and chic in a light-filled veranda with a lovely view of the peaceful private garden. All this in front of a wonderful French cuisine, always beautifully presented and very refined. We recommend, for the gourmets and the others, the desserts which are absolutely delicious.

With two large terraces (one overlooking the sea and the other overlooking the street) and an additional one at the back on the parking lot, this nicely decorated pub offers a wide variety of beers(of course!) and seasonal dishes. It's also a great place for locally produced oysters and a great place to enjoy the sunset in the evening or a well-deserved tea time after a swim in the sea in the afternoon. On Sundays, it's simply crowded because the brunch is famous.

Opened by renowned Jersey Island restaurateurs (formerly of the Atlantic Hotel), Mark Jordan at the Beach welcomes you to a charming setting with a refined decor and light tones. A prime spot to enjoy a generous, refined menu. With an unobstructed view over Saint-Aubin Bay, you can feast on fresh local produce - with a special mention for seafood - and fusion cuisine inspired by Mediterranean and even Thai cuisine. Finally, the value for money is very good.

The Moorings Hotel's table is an excellent option for dining in the port's friendly atmosphere, whether on the small terrace in summer or in the warm and stylish fireside reception room in winter. On the menu, well-prepared seafood, local meats, Scandinavian or Mediterranean-influenced dishes and even a few vegan options. The menu changes with the seasons, and local produce is of course given pride of place. All in all, an address just the way we like it.

This is a great place to get your feet under the table after a long, lazy day at the beach. Here, you can eat with a view of the sea, practically on the sand, and choose between pizzas, pasta dishes, burgers, grilled or breaded chicken, fish and chips, grilled prawns or shrimps, and so on. The establishment, which also boasts a surf school open to all and a clothing store, is the meeting place for local surfers.
