The restaurant is by the marina and has outside and inside seating.A good menu with crepes, fish and limited meat courses. Euro 26 for 2 courses if you want the set menu which has 4 or 5 choices for each course.Good wine list.The service was very professional and the food was served quickly and was excellent.Will certainly visit again.

La Fleur de Ble noir - Creperie Chez Nadine

Reviewed By AIR12345

After walking around downtown and the port, this looked like the place to go.The menu had many choices including specials. The waiter engaged us in friendly conversation, and gave all the credit to Nadine, who has been making crepes for 25 years! The galettes were delicious, as well as the dessert crepes. We will definitely re-visit if we return to Douarnenez.

Affronted that we had not made a reservation despite it being Wednesday in mid October and there being no other diners, the miserable waitress somehow managed to find a table in this huge soulless restaurant. The worst fish soup in France, very thin, unseasoned and with an unhealthy stale fish aroma was not a good start. My clams were at least edible but a mere 9 specimens in salty brown liquid seemed rather economic given that we had watched the locals gathering them at low tide by the bucket load. The sea bream fillet was cooked correctly but served with an utterly flavour-free mush of glass noodles and beansprouts which tasted of a tainted frying pan. My fillet de boeuf was far from seignant (rare) being charred and by French standards 'bien cuit'. It was served with a mystery tasteless veg accompaniment that may have been turnip. The desserts were dreadful dry factory produced things the colour of chocolate but no flavour apart from sweet. By far the worst dining experience anywhere in recent memory - avoid at all costs. Actually 138 customers awarded us of good comments for 9 bad opinion, what makes 94 % of satisfied customers for 6 % of disappointed.As opposed to what you think, we are not offended when you did not book, that belonged to our trade to put the question to your arrival because other customers booked and that enables us to manage the arrival of these customers.Concerning the fish soup, on our premises it is made with a Breton recipe authentic, white fresh fishes and conger what gives him its taste, contrary to industrial soups which more the share of time are made with fishbone and of the agents of chemical flavour. Concerning the vegetables which you did not know to identify they are fresh Jerusalem artichokes, if you had taken the time to read our map instead of being in criticism as of your arrival, they are announced and you could have appreciated what you eat… I note that you allotted a very good opinion to one of my fellow-members who as of the first photoposter an industrial charcuterie plate and which adds up 35% disgruntled customers. I thus allow myself you inform that you are far from being large culinary critic and that you should question your palate instead of severely judging a restaurant, small council do not go in restaurants which offers fresh produce and home made, you choose with a tourist factory and choose rib steak.

L'effet Boeuf

Reviewed By Steve T

This place is right outside our hotel door, so what better place to start. My little girl is not a big meat eater but she was talking about an advert she had seen before we left for France where the knob of butter was sliding down the piece of steak. Oh that was it we had to get a steak as we were starving. We had no starter as I didn't understand the menu. But I did understand the steak menu and I think fillet can be understood anywhere in the world, and that teamed up with an extra blue cheese sauce to go with my creamy black pepper sauce went down a treat even junior tried it, she opted for the homemade ketchup as a safe bet. And that was stunning as well. That was followed with profiteroles and a lemon cheesecake, accompanied with a good few glasses of local ice cold beers. All for 60 Euros. Which for the class of restaurant and quality of food I thought was brilliant value for money. I'm sure we will fit another visit in here before the end of our holiday.

Creperie du Salle

Reviewed By lyndellu

The Creperie du Salle has given us a new standard by which to measure all other crepes (and galettes). Their “simple” crepes are simply perfect. Served on warmed plates so that the crepes retain their heat they are superb to the last mouthful. I almost laughed when my crepe saucisson was placed in front of me - a crepe folded twice with a lone thin sausage on top. The presentation so unassuming, the taste wonderful. The dessert crepes are just as good and the vanilla ice cream heavenly. There is a beautiful view of the bay from the terrace, the service is friendly and efficient and the house red is eminently drinkable.

Au Gouter breton chez Tudal

Reviewed By TheWritersRoom

This crêperie, on the edge of the town centre, is always the place I take visitors. It's a fairly authentic crêperie experience, with a lovely atmosphere and a mouthwatering selections of fillings. I love the humour here, for example, their attitude about Coca Cola (you'll only get Breton 'Breizh cola' here, which is far better for the economy and the conscience!If you come in spring and summer, there's a little outdoor terrace.Love their flavour combinations; love the authenticity.

Creperie Tout le Monde

Reviewed By Natasha-Almaty

We selected this place for a dinner using the TripAdvisor, and we never regretted the choice. We were warmly greated and our waiter gave us excellent recommendations regarding food selection. All the crepes and galletes were amzingly thin and very delicious. If I go back to Douarnenez, I will definitely visit the place again.

Such a great surprise to find such great food in this quiet unassuming hotel. The chefs are award winning and the blend of flavours were so delicately and perfectly balanced - something I have never found ever before. The wines recommended also perfectly complimented the food. Restaurant inside is tasteful and roomy while the terrace was lovely on warm weather. Great relaxed atmosphere.

Creperie Lannig

Reviewed By mindboggler13

Restaurants don't come any friendlier or more welcoming than this. Foodwise, queen scallops, finely chopped shallots blended in cream twixt super thin crisp buckwheat with lovely green salad were delicious as was the wonderfully flavoured mushroom & cheese version. Rich banana chocolate & coconut crepes flambeed with rum completed the treat. Some very good veggie options plus a few unusual specials too. Lovely proprietor and lady assistant. Open Monday evenings a bonus.
