The best bistros and brasseries Brittany

Marc Saulou's restaurant is located between the Orientis and the Cinéville. The Pic gradually reaches the peak of its fame in Lorient. We know the reason: the remarkable market cuisine you find in your plate. The sea is constantly promoted such as this fresh poached cod and aioli sauce or the cod fillet and its buckwheat pancake with Guéméné andouille and buckwheat aroma. Meats immediately follow: imagine a prime cut of Irish beef and its crepe vonnassienne. First and foremost, leave room for the dessert: the guajara chocolate fondant and Get 27 sorbet. You should also discover the restaurant for its Parisian brasserie style.

It is difficult to find a better setting for lunch or dinner in Guingamp. In an old tannery, on the banks of the river Trieux, at the edge of the old town and within walking distance of the basilica, the setting is almost bucolic, on the waterfront. The large glass windows allow light get into the building. The building has a modern decor and the atmosphere is very warm and friendly, supported by a very friendly staff. Here, you can savour a brasserie cuisine, simple but of good quality, with fresh produce, prepared with great attention. Among the dishes on the short menu, you will take note of a delicious salmon marinated with citrus or calamari Sicilian as a starter. For the main course, you will be tempted by fried sweetbreads with aciduléeou sauce, for sea food, you will be attracted to sea bass risotto, small purple parmesan and artichoke. After a Plouigneau strawberry soft cheese curd, you will have to leave this place so as to return to the city with its vibrations.

Here, we cook with loving care. No gastronomy. But a generous and precise grub. From time, too. It is in an old haberdashery that you can perch to eat - while standing or sitting in a comfortable armchair. The decor of the room - with its lovely tables - is at least unexpected. With a family atmosphere is both a restaurant and a tea room where you can have breakfast while enjoying one of the 26 teas on the menu (all homemade). At lunchtime, two dishes for 13.90 € or three courses (17.90 €) when you don't want to miss dessert: crumble with apples, brownies, tart of the day, gourmet coffee. A lovely restaurant where you are satisfied. Take away pastries available.

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. Today the very pleasant dining rooms which are panelled and decorated in marine style or the terrace, which is very attractive in summer, welcome you for a great time. 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. After a dessert that matches perfectly with the previous dishes, you will go back to the quay as you dream of a basin filled with schooners from Iceland.

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.

A waterfront establishment, Le Sans-Soucis is a large restaurant bar glacier with a huge terrace on the beach of Bénodet. It's hard to look at your plate when you're facing such a view! However, the house offers a wide choice of pizzas, mussels and chips, burgers, meal salads, seafood and other meats and fish. The terrace is huge and no matter the weather, as it is heated, covered and fully protected. But if it ran out of space, the interior is still very pleasant with its colourful notes of aniseed green, emerald and purple, softened by a few touches of driftwood. Smart: the Sans-Soucis offers homemade ice creams and a sandwich shop, sausages and chips, in season with takeaway sales of sweet and savoury delicacies....
