Le Cottage Restaurant — Restaurant in Rochefort

Le Cottage is unmissable. It’s fine dining with the welcoming ambience of eating at your friend’s table. The food is first class and everything is homemade. For us, the food was Michelin star quality and we are already planning a return visit. It’s impossible to pick a favourite dish from what we tried. They were all exceptional. It’s the small touches which make this restaurant so special. The amuse bouche to whet your appetite for what is to come. The effort made by the host to advise a wine to suit our tastes. The homemade bread. Even the coffee came with two little homemade chocolates to finish off a perfect meal. The best surprise is the bill. It was actually less than an average brasserie on the seafront but this is a meal you won’t forget...

What a fantastic experience, hands down some of the best food I have ever eaten. We had the tasting menu and I cannot get over the level of detail and flavour that came with each dish, the hole meal was a real triumph prepared perfectly and presented beautifully, all topped off with some remarkable wines selected by our gracious host.

The team at Le Cottage Restaurant went above and beyond, looking after our every need, particularly our home made Guinness brown bread presented to us on the evening.

I can honestly say that our visit with Doug, Axelle and team was the highlight of our holiday, and we are counting down the days until we can return.

A 5 star experience that I will be recommending to any friends travelling...

Making the most of the dream. Doug and Axelle have always managed to combine carefully crafted food with friendly service. So imagine what it must be like for them to have new premises, custom built to reflect their individuality and provide the very best experience for them and their customers. A bright airy indoor space and lovely terrace opening onto the adjacent park in the centre of Vaux-sur-Mer. The result as far as we can tell from a first visit is good for everyone, the kitchen producing refined dishes, the service personal and professional, the location convenient and peaceful and all at a very reasonable price. How nice to find a restaurant that you cannot wait...
