Restaurants in St Malo

  1. Le Chalut

    This unremarkable-looking establishment is in fact St-Malo’s most celebrated restaurant and a must for any self-respecting seafood lover. The kitchen overflows with the best the Breton coastline has to offer – buttered turbot, line-caught sea bass and scallops in Champagne sauce. Reservations for dinner are advised.

  2. Restaurant Delaunay

    This superb yet unassuming-looking restaurant is where Chef Didier Delaunay creates standout gastronomic cuisine within aubergine-painted walls. The menu features succulent dishes both from the surf (Breton lobster is a speciality) and turf (tender lamb). The restaurant is fully wheelchair accessible.

    Crêperie Margaux

    Watch the owner of this wonderful little crêperie on violet-filled Marché aux Légumes making traditional crêpes by hand (her motto: ‘if you’re in a hurry, don’t come here’). The aromas wafting through the timber-lined dining room, and the scads of happy diners, prove it’s well worth the wait.

  4. La Bouche en Folie

    Hidden away from the tourist trail, this sleek joint oozes Gallic gorgeousness from every nook and cranny. The menu gives a modern spin to French staples – lamb is fricasséed with garlic and artichokes, while monkfish is partnered by peas, black olives and asparagus. Sumptuous.

  5. Café Licorne

    This popular and relatively good-value place for a sit-down lunch within the walls has a buzzing terrace and a funky feel. Crêpes, omelettes, salads, a decent club sandwich and fresh moules (mussels) dominate the menu.

    Pain de Campagne

    Sandwich shops are in no short supply in St-Malo, but many of them are sub-par and expensive. The cheerful little Pain de Campagne is where locals come for creative sandwich combinations on a variety of breads, and at least a couple of hot meals per day.

    Le Biniou

    With cute little illustrations of biniou, this crêperie/salon de thé has a couple of terrace tables, and a great upstairs mezzanine with velour settees where you can choose from well over a hundred different artisan galettes (savoury crêpes) and crêpes (including the house specialty of caramelised apples flambéed in calvados), or the menu of mussels.

    Le Bénétin

    Situated close to the 'sculpture rocks' (carved into human and animal faces by a priest) northeast of the walled city, this well-known place is a must for seafood - and for views of the sea where it's caught.
