"This restaurant was our first meal in France. Little English is spoken here, but a few smiles laugh and a little mime meant that we had no problem communicating with the friendly locals. Our party of 5 had mixed opinions about the food, but this had more to do with personal taste than the food itself. The portions were large and significant, and it was very busy mainly to serve local people. It was cheap and good value. I would recommend this as a place for large portions of good, honest local fare."

I echo the other two reviews in English, although word must be spreading because there four women in and one young family when we visited. The majority though are still local working men. We stopped in for lunch on our way to Hornfleur rather than an expensive tourist trap. We sat at a table with a bottle of cider, red wine and water and we realised they were included but only had the wine and water. Good home cooked food in the lunch time set menu. Choice or cold starter, choice of two mains, self serve cheese and then desert. We were full for the rest of the day. We got talking to the couple on the next table (our pigeon French to their pigeon English) and stayed half an hour longer than p...

I repeat the other two English-speaking reviews, although the word must be spread because there are four women in and a young family when we have visited. But the majority is still local workers. We did not sit on the way to Hornfleur to an expensive tourist trap. We sat at a table with a bottle of cider, red wine and water and we realized that they were included but had only the wine and the water. Good home cooked food in the lunch menu.

This is a local focal point visited by long-distance truck drivers and locals, which said it has the most friendly atmosphere. The restaurant is family run and they are the most hospitable people I met. English is understood, although a little knowledge about French is appreciated and even encouraged, and even taught much pleasure .... The food is healthy and freshly cooked, the wine or the apple wine is free flowing.... On the table, help yourself. As has already been said, it is a set menu that was most pleasant. A very pleasant evening spent so much we went back the next night. Can not recommend very enough.

We recommended this bistro from the manager of our accommodation. He told us it wasn't unusual and was full of truck drivers and my wife would probably be the only woman there. He was right. The place was full of male truck drivers who were all for the food. It's a set menu. You are taking a tray of starters from which you choose one. Then you have a choice of two nets and sides, then a course of cheese and salad, then dessert. All this plus wine and apple wine and coffee for €11.50 per person. The food was fantastic, real French bistro food, great served and a great friendly atmosphere. Unbeatable.
