Stopped by for a light lunch in the sun. Taken in by the outdoor seating in the sunshine with moules et frites on the menu, which everyone else had ordered. Large beer 7 euros, fine. Moules et frites 9.90 euros, decent price. Absolutely appalled with what was served. Looked like they had just been fished out of the net with the sea water as the mariniere sauce. Cloudy sea water and dirty shells with crabs living inside resulted in only eating 6 before I had to throw in the towel. Chips were naff, but are the lot due to being so hungry.Waiter asked why we left so much and we politely told him that we couldn't eat them as they were not good. He didn't apologise and walked off rudely.30 euros f...
..... But a bit fawlty towers? I would have given this restaurant 5 stars because I loved it, but as my husband pointed out it wasn't 5 star service or 5 star food but it was picturesque, comfortable and we went twice in our week stay which means it wasn't all bad! The moules Frite were great, one of children wanted hot dog but they were out of bread, so if was literally sausage and chips! The crepes were nice, the squid wasn't at all what we were expecting but nice nonetheless. The best bit by far was the same clumsy waiter we had on two occasions, who (and this is no exaggeration) broke at least 5 glasses during those two visits! A great place to sit and have a beer overlooking the beautif...
This bistro has a great location to the side of the harbour. I ordered moules frites. After a few I noticed a strange texture, l looked at the next one, nothing to see, but then after a couple I noticed that in every other moule, actually inside the moule, was a little parasitic crab, about the size of a pea. And once you noticed them you could even see them floating in the salt water. Having realised that I must have eaten a few, it somewhat put me off. When I have moules I really want to be the first guy there and not be sharing it with a bunch of crabs. I then spent the next 20 mins picking them out. No attempt to flavour the cooking water - no wine no shallots, and no bread anyway to try...
On a wet, windy, Summer's day in La Flotte we were pleased to dash in here having eaten here (successfully) some years ago.Well, things have changed and not for the better: Service: grudging and unwelcoming; dirge-like music, sticky table with sauces in plastic pouches; small, flabby cheese omelette (no ham offered) with unremarkable chips...coffee OK though. Waiting staff more concerned with themselves than their clients....one man on the table behind us had to go to up to the bar himself to get a drink.Why, if you have the chance to run a restaurant in one of the world's most popular tourist destinations would you not at least pretend you like the people who pay your wages?My suggestion is...

We were let down badly by Bar André having reserved a table and were told on arrival we would have to eat inside (it was 8.00pm and 30 degrees), we went to La Flotte and the Maitre D couldn’t have been more helpful, he took...our number and said he would call if a table became available. We actually went for a drink opposite and saw that a table came free and they ver6 kindly fitted us in a5 the end of service. Everything was superb, staff, attitude and service impeccable and the food Superb from Amuse Boucher to dessert. What a fabulous evening. We live in Surgeres and will definitely be returning to this delightful restaurant.
A small menu of freshly cooked, interesting,orginal and vey tasty seafood and meat dishes. Check the daily choices chalked up on the blackboard, then take a table on the harbour side for a relaxing lunch.
Nice little bistro! A very welcoming welcome, the waitress made the maximum possible so that we could eat quickly despite the little time we had in front of us. Good price for dishes on the thumb.
simple small place on the harbour edge. cold beer went really well served by a cheerful team of employees. uncomplicated plate made of sausage and chips meet exactly the point.

frozen microshaft food, which is also cold. dirty and unfresh. the owners do not care what they serve, they just want to make as much profit as possible. back to this place
Cold food, the plates are almost empty. The waiter is rude and you have to ask for some bread several times. I definitely do not recommend this place.
