Le Bâteau Ivre sur Le Pouliguen

Excellent place. The welcome and service were top-notch. We had a wonderful time. I highly recommend it.

A personalized welcome to delight customers, classic dishes and original creations to discover. The view of the port of Le Pouliguen from the upstairs is a bonus. The air-conditioned rooms are a welcome feature during periods of intense heat. I highly recommend it. 👍

I'm so glad I stopped at this place. A galette for me and mussels for my husband. A small crêpe for dessert. It was simply delicious. As for the service, you feel right at home. Go without hesitation.

My husband, daughter, and I just had dinner here tonight, June 20th, 2026. We are very surprised by the negative comments. As for us, we had a very good meal. The portions were generous and delicious. We had excellent seats (table 512). The staff were incredibly welcoming and efficient. We highly recommend Le Bateau Ivre 👍.

Very pleasant service. Quite generous portions and fresh.

A superb evening spent at Le Bateau Ivre, top-notch service, excellent meal. Thank you to Pierre Coulon, an exceptional waiter!

Excellent meal, top-notch service, very friendly and attentive waiter, ideal setting to spend a good time with family or friends.

Nice little restaurant. Welcoming and cheerful staff. Good mussels from Guérande.

I've been going to this restaurant for over 15 years, every time I'm in La Baule. The Bateau Ivre mussels were a must, even for a two-day stay; it was unthinkable not to go at least once. My husband would make the reservation and knew the former owners well. Since the sale, I've been disappointed with the recipe, which is supposedly identical. I tried it again recently, and the disappointment is simply too great: where before the special sauce generously coated the mussels, and you could still dip the fries in it, now it's just a slightly colored liquid floating on the bottom. Awful. You can still taste the ingredients of the original recipe, but the generosity is gone, and it's not worth the price. Special mention goes to the very unpleasant conversation I had about this: I was told that the recipe is identical to the original, that the creators even come to the kitchen to check that it's being made correctly. Someone isn't telling the truth. Those who knew the recipe before know this. Luckily, the natural turnover of customers makes this review NS (Not Applicable). The galettes and crêpes are still delicious.

Excellent service and food! Whether it was galettes or crêpes, everything was great!
