16/09/2026: Unfortunately, I can't really comment on much besides the service. We arrived without a reservation. The waitress asked if we had a reservation. We replied that we hadn't, and she grimaced, then didn't even look at us or say a word. She ignored us. So we left. If there were no more tables available, you could have told us; we would have understood perfectly. If there was a wait, you could have told us that too; we would have understood. But no, just a grimace and complete indifference, without a glance. It's a real shame, because given the good reviews, I have no doubt the food is good.

17/06/2026: Our monthly get-together! Not a day goes by without our burger night! It's always a pleasure to introduce Gavroche to visiting friends!

10/07/2026: Friendly staff, good selection, and fast service. Pleasant setting with a beautiful view of the golf course.

12/09/2026: I do not recommend this bar/restaurant unless you want to be poorly received and served. We were disappointed with the service! The person threw our coasters at us, and the waitress couldn't even bring our drinks to the table. Avoid at all costs!

08/09/2026: We made le cafe noir our daily stop off when cycling from our campsite to Noirmoutier. The atmosphers is very relaxed and peefect to unwind a d take in the surroundings. The food is varied and delicious. The service is excellent and the staff understood english as our french is poor.

26/09/2026: Homemade galettes made with quality ingredients... Excellent! We were delighted with the service. Go without hesitation!

05/09/2026: A very good time with attentive and highly professional staff.

10/11/2026: A short family weekend in Noirmoutier, and we chose this restaurant somewhat randomly… But what a wonderful surprise! No regrets whatsoever, quite the opposite! From the moment we arrived until we left, everything was perfect. The staff were lovely, the service was top-notch, and it was a truly wonderful experience from beginning to end. We had a fantastic time as a family. We highly recommend this place! We will definitely be back! 😊

03/11/2026: Beef bourguignon, far too salty with little meat and far too many onions.

09/07/2026: Order placed on July 9, 2026 for 12:00 PM. Upon returning home, the meat was full of charred, blackened pieces with a burnt taste. This isn't the first time I've ordered from here, as it's located in the alley where I live.

18/04/2026: Absolutely delicious. Excellent service, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal.

22/10/2026: A small, typical restaurant and bar on the island of Noirmoutier, located in L'Épine. Simple, budget-friendly cuisine. Billiards and pinball, a rarity these days.

24/09/2026: Friendly welcome and food good enough to recommend the place

12/07/2026: A very friendly welcome, although they were in the middle of reopening and renovations were underway. Very attentive staff.

28/06/2026: The hotel was very well located, unfortunately the comfort of the room was not up to standard due to the heatwave this June.

20/09/2026: Simple but delicious food. A lovely starter of crayfish and mushroom salad with a very pleasant hot and cold contrast. A duo of pollack with sauerkraut, very well cooked. We thoroughly enjoyed it!

23/08/2026: I was very disappointed by this restaurant. First of all, the welcome was very cold, the wait was long, the pizzas were frozen, the mussels were served cold, without even a large spoon to scoop up the sauce, and the desserts were very pasty. I will never go back. And on top of that, the bill was exorbitant.

04/10/2026: The setting is lovely, a little corner of the garden perfect for lunch. The €39 set menu was excellent value for money. Fresh and flavorful.

02/10/2026: It had been a very long time since I'd been so disappointed by a restaurant. I'm not questioning the price of the dish, which was exorbitant, but the quality of the food, which was appalling. A lobster ravioli with hard, thick pasta to enclose a tiny portion of lobster is pathetic, and to top it off, it had absolutely no flavor. Then there was the breaded sweetbreads dipped in frying oil—I wouldn't call that "breaded sweetbreads." Breaded sweetbreads should have been fried in butter. When I asked the waitress (who didn't even know the ingredients of the six measly dishes on the menu) if we could see the chef, if we could meet the owner, whose first name she only knew… Dominique… she replied that it wasn't her problem, that she'd only been there for a month, that the restaurant was closing permanently on October 18th, and that she didn't care about any of it but would pass it along. Again, I'd never received such a nonsensical response. Fortunately, there's no shortage of good restaurants in Noirmoutier and true professionals. I forgot to mention that I've been to several restaurants, and seeing a restaurateur behave this way is a disgrace to our profession. There's nothing more to add except… never set foot in that place. It cost us €180 for two people, including one starter, one main course each, and a bottle of wine. The menu is minimalist, so the dishes should normally be perfectly executed, but we're far from it! They must have had a Bib Gourmand before this new chef, otherwise it's impossible!

07/09/2026: Oh crap, it's closed 😂😂 That sucks 😂

06/08/2026: We arrived unexpectedly and received a very warm welcome from a very dynamic owner. The food was good.

25/09/2026: Bad service, don’t expect to be greeted with a smile or to talk to a helpful staff (at least, the young lady who served us was very disagreeable). Beautiful view, by the ocean. No WiFi, very bad mobile network when inside.

24/09/2026: Thank you for the warm welcome, I recommend the crepes.

20/10/2026: We'll never set foot in that place again! After waiting an hour and a half to be served, the meat was tough and sinewy, the fish dishes with vegetables were tasteless, and the bread was rock hard! When we complained about the service, they told us we weren't expecting this many people, that we had a reservation, sir! He said, "Sorry for you! Don't take other customers if you can't handle it." We were with elderly people, aged 94 and 96. It's unacceptable to make them wait like that…

19/10/2026: We arrived first at 11:55 am. We left at 1:45 pm without having had dessert, except for the two set menus (no choice), which we devoured in two minutes due to a prior appointment. The service was horribly slow. An hour for an endless aperitif. When I asked if it was possible to have the main courses sent away, the waitress took it rather badly. It's a shame because the dishes were good, even though I personally couldn't have dessert or coffee. I was very surprised by this service, where people on the terrace were served the exact same aperitifs and menu as us, and left 30 minutes before us. One thing is for sure: we won't be going back.

07/10/2026: Absolutely fantastic, a must-do!

04/10/2026: A pleasant and convivial moment

12/11/2026: Avoid this place despite its prime location on the port. The wait is interminable: 30 minutes just to take your order, then another 30 minutes to be served. The menu is all over the place (galettes, pizzas, salads, seafood sauerkraut, mussels out of season…), which leaves little doubt about the lack of fresh ingredients. The food is very disappointing: the burger is extremely bland, and the warm goat cheese salad is nothing more than reheated, pre-packaged toast. Only the fries are somewhat redeeming. As for the service, while the waitress is friendly and does her best, the atmosphere is ruined by the owner, who is unpleasant and constantly complains. Finally, having to walk past the kitchen on the way to the restroom completely kills your appetite: it's utter chaos. In short, a tourist trap that only profits from its view. Keep walking.

07/11/2026: A delicious meal on the sunny terrace. We (2 adults and 1 child) were so happy to have spent this time there. The service was excellent! Alexandra gave us a warm welcome. All three of us were delighted with our meals! We'll be back! 🩷
