Great restaurants in Les Sables-d’Olonne, as you might expect of a coastal town, mostly revolve around the fruits of the sea. The southern edge of the port, where it borders the Old Town, is practically lined with first-class seafood restaurants. There are plenty more just over the waterway and along Quai George V.

Most of the options around the port are priced towards the upper end of the scale. For more budget-friendly eats, you’ll want to head toward the beach. Just over the road from the shore, you’ll find spots offering a wide selection of international cuisines. There are also plenty of ice cream parlours and crêperies in Les Sables-d’Olonne, if you need a sweet snack during your beach day.

    Cabestan

    Michelin-starred meals by the docks

    Cabestan
    • 음식
    • 럭셔리

    Cabestan is a cosy, modern restaurant right by the Les Sables-d’Olonne’s port. It takes full advantage of this location, using fresh seafood from a nearby market to cook up some outstanding takes on traditional French dishes.

    Naturally, being a Michelin-starred restaurant with an exceptional reputation, prices are a little higher than the average. However, with great service, a first-class location, one of the most attractive dining rooms in town and the aforementioned food, it ends up being excellent value.

    L'Estran

    Outstanding French seafood with exotic touches

    L'Estran
    • 음식

    L'Estran is noted for its excellent seafood, though its highlights include a fantastic tiramisu and first-rate coffee, too. This remarkable menu is served with great service in a very elegant dining room, all right by the bustle of Les Sable-d’Olonne’s docks.

    Standout dishes to look out for include the salmon tataki and veal steak. The wine list is especially well thought out, and the wait staff can recommend labels that pair well with your dishes. Despite the excellent quality, prices are impressively reasonable, giving great value for money.

    Les Régates

    Great crepes by the beach

    Les Régates
    • 음식

    Les Régates is a gastropub overlooking the Promenade du Remblai and the beach. While its menu is extensive and varied, the crepes stand out as a highlight. These paper-thin pancakes even help cement the restaurant's status as one of the most popular places to eat in Les Sables-d’Olonne.

    Les Régates is known for offering value-for-money meals. The surf and turf salad, for example, is certainly inexpensive, but comes piled high with duck, magret, foie gras, smoked salmon, fresh prawns and, of course, salad.
