La Petite Poésie sur Brest

25/03/2026: I'm sharing my opinion about the restaurant, Le Vauban. Excellent welcome; the whole team is kind and attentive to the well-being of their customers, which is rare these days. All the dishes are homemade and delicious. Here's a chef who prepares his dishes with heart. You'll always find fish and French meat. Delicious desserts. A special mention for the blackcurrant sorbet. Be warned, it's addictive! Next time, I'll have four scoops. Every lunchtime, they offer daily specials. Don't hesitate to stop by, even just for a quick coffee during the day. Thank you all. Sylvie

24/03/2026: Vauban Hotel Brest 23rd October 2025 We arrived in Brest as our first stop ahead of travelling along the west of France towards a return to the UK across the Bay of Biscay. The hotel is in a great location, very close to the station. Friendly staff and clean, comfortable room. Breakfast a good standard continental style with fresh orange juice (always a bonus, even if you have to squeeze it yourself). Interesting venue all round, with an onsite restaurant and basement entertainment venue which has hosted a number of famous musicians/singers over the years. We’d missed the jazz nights, sadly. Would highly recommend the hotel. Good value at £90 for a double room and breakfast and lovely staff. You can’t ask for more, in my opinion.
