The best restaurants Les Sables-D'Olonne

The brainchild of David and Florian, La Folie is a multi-faceted place, facing the sea. It's a lounge bar for cocktails on the poolside terrace, a restaurant with a menu that includes seafood, grilled whole fish, mussels in summer, and burgers. It's also a guinguette with bar service and food-truck. Book the Brasero evening on Friday evenings. On Sunday mornings, the guinguette serves oysters and white wine. Bonus: children's play area and pickleball courts are also available.

You'll have to choose the right time of year to eat at this crêperie, which changed hands last year after having long been one of the city's best crêperies, because at certain times of the summer you'll be invaded by swarms of little insects that will literally spoil your meal. We no longer find what made the place so special, a top-notch team on duty.

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.
