Restaurants & where to eat during your holidays in Brittany

The best restaurants and where to eat during your holiday in Brittany.

We are lucky to have an excellent selection of restaurants and eateries both locally and a short drive from from the Gites at Kergudon.

The Restaurant Au Lac is just down the road and is one of our favourite places to eat whilst watching the sun set over the stunning Lac Du Drennec. Auberge Du Menez in the neighbouring village of St Rivoal sources only local ingredients and gives a gastronomic experience in the Monts d'Arrée. If you're looking for a touch of class La faïencerie in Daoulas is perfect for an elegant lunch or dinner with one of our favourite chefs.

Take a look below at our restaurant recommendations during your holiday in Brittany.

LA FAIENCERIE

This is one of our favourite restaurants. La Faïencerie is sited in the pretty town of Daoulas which is a 20 minute drive from the Gites at Kergudon. This old pottery has been lovingly renovated and is now an elegant and sophisticated eatery. Yann the head chef is very talented and his menu is full of exciting dishes using local ingredients with a modern twist. Our favourite thing to do on a Sunday morning is visit the weekly market at Daoulas and then have a leisurely lunch at La Faïencerie before a beautiful walk around the estuary or the stunning coastline.

Please check seasonal opening times.

LE JARDIN DES SAVURS

The story of Le Jardin des Saveurs was born in 2018, the need to return to our roots, to a cuisine of taste and to the pleasure of working with good, local produce. A trusting team, a group spirit to move forward together and take pleasure in accompanying our customers, exchanging our local products that we pamper such as poultry from the Kergo farm or our vegetables from Forest Landerneau, just a stone's throw from the restaurant. With a creative cuisine that plays with the seasons with originality: the flavours of the garden take shape.

Reservations are mandatory and uniquely by telephone:

...a little further afield, but worth the effort!

We obviously cannot list all the restaurants around but there are many to choose from during your holidays in France and Brittany boast some of the most amazing produce and chefs. Here are some of our favourite restaurants that are not too far from Kergudon Gîtes in Brittany:

  • Le Crabe Marteau in Brest (45 minutes by car) is exceptional and a lot of fun. The menu is limited but 'it does what it says on the tin', fresh crab and a hammer .... entertaining and delicious.
  • Le Viaduc in Morlaix (25 minutes by car) serves absolutely gorgeous food and is right in the heart of the medieval town and well worth a visit. Have a look at their website for opening hours and contact details. Restaurant Le Viaduc Morlaix
  • Lé Grande Café De La Terrasse in Morlaix has one of the most beautiful interiors harking back to the wealth of Morlaix in its golden age.  We would describe this as what Café Rouge and other chains are poor imitations of when trying to replicate a typical French (Parisian?) café. This the real thing. Excellent for both lunch and dinner or just a coffee in the sun. tel: 0298882025
  • Les Bains Douches in Morlaix is in fact the old bath houses of Morlaix and is set in the back streets just next to the river.  Traditional dishes with taste and ambiance, this is another fun place to try especially in the evenings. Booking is essential as it is always full. For opening hours have a look at their website: Restaurant les Bains Douches
