L'hydropathe sur Caen

22/05/2026: Beautiful atmosphere and very welcoming! Food was amazing and would highly recommend for coeliac disease!

20/05/2026: We visited Omaha Beach in the afternoon and didn't get back to Caen until 9:30 PM, which was just about an hour before closing time. Despite the late hour, the owner warmly welcomed us in. We ordered the seafood platter, and the portions were huge and incredibly fresh—I could easily pull out a massive chunk of meat from the crab! As novices at eating sea snails, it took us quite a while, and by the time we finished everything, we had actually stayed 20 minutes past closing time. However, throughout our meal, we never felt rushed at all. On the contrary, the owner kept telling us to take our time and enjoy. Since we were the last guests, she even shared with us that everything is lovingly homemade and they only have five chefs in the kitchen. In short, the food was delicious and hearty (especially that seafood platter!), and the service was impeccable—the staff cleared our used plates very promptly. The owner's warmth and hospitality truly touched our hearts. If I ever visit France again, I will definitely bring my friends here! C'est un régal !
