Food & drink

Let’s put an end to the clichés! There’s more to Brittany than crêpes and buckwheat pancakes!

Breton cuisine will make your mouth water with its wide range of flavours from land and sea. With the region’s local, seasonal products, you’re sure to find something you like – for gourmet experiences you’ll never forget.
