Restaurant La Fermette — Restaurant in Avranches

Average food, more of a family-style restaurant similar to chains found in the USA

A family style restaurant similar to an Applebee’s or other chain restaurants with similar décor. Our waiter was new, his first night, and a little nervous but he did well. He was not well versed in the wine selections so we made the choice, a Syrah. Nice selections for a family place.

The Onion Soup was standard but hot, beefy lots of cheese. A sausage/potato gratin was hearty with plenty of sausage and tender potato slices in a peppery cream sauce with slices of camembert melted on top. Very good and filling, almost a small plate meal.

The food appeared to be freshly cooked to order so be patient. Really had a wonderful evening I think the food was extremely reasonable. Would recommend if passing through or staying at the many sites near by. Outside terrace...

Absolute disgusting people at this restaurant. Besides the manager all the waiters try their best to give you the most awfull dinner experience. That being said they are amazing in reaching that goal. I would only recommend if you don’t have a problem with getting spit on. They only speak French and look at you with disgusting faces. As long if you’re not French they try and ignore you until you have to scream and wave at them. When they arrive you experience an impressive lack off communication skill. All in all a fascinating and bad experience. Especially with the...
