Our second time visiting this restaurant. We are taking a trip to the Normandy region and made sure that we purposely stopped at this restaurant for dinner! So good and so fun to eat the feuilleté. Can’t wait to come back!

This is becoming an annual pilgrimage!!! Such delicious food- and the most friendly and attentive staff. “Les Feuilletés” (le poisson and le bœuf Normand) are to die for!!! Topped off with an espresso as we were too full for crepes…

This restaurant offered traditional Normandy Galettes, Feulletes (puff pastry) salads and Crêpes. The food was really good I had a Feulletes and a Crêpe. The service was good and atmosphere good too. A delicious meal in a nice setting.

I had the most wonderful experience eating in this restaurant. The building and surroundings are beautiful to the point of magical. The staff is very friendly and responsive. I had the 4 cheese pizza (probably the best pizza I ever ate) and my wife had the bass with creamed leeks pancake (she loved it). Prices are certainly reasonable when you consider the amount and quality of food you receive. The only downside is that it is going to be very difficult for me to try any other restaurants because I know how good the food here is. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!

Best spot in Pont-Audemer. Great quality camemberts, duck meats and cidres! Best price and nice Normandy ambiance.
