Delightful restaurant serving the simple but delicious traditional French food that I remember from childhood holidays in Normandy - Filet de bœuf sauce poivron, sole meunier, lyonnaise potatoes, sweet soufflés flavoured with Calvados and Normandy cheeses. There’s a well priced menu of the day and a wider range on the à la carte menu. Another nice touch - a wine of the month.

It was a perfect french bistro...
