- Ivan Vautier★ Michelin Purebred Normandy chef Ivan Vautier has been honing his talents for over thirty years in this property, done up in tasteful contemporary vein outside the town centre. Fiercely proud of his region, the chef aims to showcase the very best of Normandy’s ingredients in soul-warming recipes: green asparagus from Bellengreville; wild morels from a local picker; double cream from Isigny Sainte Mère; Normandy raised pork etc, without forgetting the local catch. Those with a sweet tooth will be entranced by the vision of a millefeuille “as high as a skyscraper”!5.5km
- RozeBib This old building in the centre of the village has been treated to a tasteful contemporary makeover to showcase the talents of Clémence Goupil and Alex Néel. Both are fountains of knowledge about their profession and its history and their establishment’s name refers to the inventor of the modern restaurant concept, Mathurin Roze de Chantoiseau. Your hosts sing an ode to fresh seasonal produce with touching sincerity teamed with bold flourishes: a seafood-tinged tartare of veal, ponzu seasoning and smoked John Dory; poultry breast poached in tarragon butter, green pea cream and black garlic.3.9km
- Augia In the heart of Le Vaugueux, an area of Caen beloved of tourists, a stone's throw from the castle, this restaurant takes the Latin name of the Pays d'Auge, birthplace of chef Grégoire James. The interior elegantly blends old-world charm – exposed beams, half-timbering and Caen stone – with refined contemporary furnishings. The modern cuisine takes the form of a concise menu, featuring local producers and organic ingredients (pea tartlet, goat's cheese, fresh herbs; Bayeux pork, sautéed potatoes, grilled courgettes, reduced jus). In fine weather, the patio terrace to the rear of the restaurant 4.0km
- Le Bouchon du Vaugueux Behind a simple exterior is this bistro with the soul of a true bouchon lyonnais (counter, cheek - to - jowl dining). That said, the chef does not limit himself to tradition and adorns his dishes with more modern ideas. Nice selection of wines from producers.4.1km
- Le Dauphin This place is just the ticket for fans of Normandy's specialities: oysters from the bay of Isigny - sur - Mer, Swiss Normandy pigeon, and Vire andouille sausage. The onus is on ingredients from the region but the chef also knows how to compose more original recipes. Elegant and bright decor.4.1km
- L'Espérance - Stéphane Carbone Treat yourself to a gourmet country getaway a stone's throw from Caen, in Stéphane Carbone's ruddy terracotta-coloured establishment. The chef, something of a local celebrity, rustles up traditional dishes with a modern twist. A case in point: lightly seared scallops, veg, a spicy cracker and a beetroot and ginger emulsion. Each table commands a fine view of the canal.4.1km
- Stéphane Carbone Just a stone's throw from the marina, in the bustling hub of Caen life, chef Stéphane Carbone explores France's terroirs, from Normandy and the Lyonnais to Bresse (where he grew up and learned to cook) to his parents' and grandparents' native Calabria. Using the freshest ingredients, he serves modern cuisine with a dash of creativity, proceeding according to the mood on any given day. Signature dishes are available à la carte, including the heart sweetbread cooked in a sauté pan or the Caribbean chocolate shell with a hot chocolate velouté… To be enjoyed in the contemporary dining area, from w4.2km
- Magma This town house, outside the centre of Caen, is almost on the doorstep of the Abbaye-aux-Hommes. Olivier Barbarin, an experienced chef who is no stranger to fine dining, concocts food that resembles his character – uninhibited and appetising, including a nod to his native Auvergne – the purple walls evoke volcanic rock like pozzolan. Bargain priced lunch deal, and the dinner tasting menu changes depending on the market and the chef’s mood.4.3km
- Simplexité Not far from the stunning Abbaye aux Hommes, this small restaurant is the domain of chef Maxime Le Gallo (previously of Château d'Audrieu, Manoir du Lys). He prepares mouth-watering dishes celebrating the Normandy terroir. His dishes are often enhanced by a touch of creativity, as is the case in the starter of Coco de Paimpol beans, Vire andouille sausage and seaweed, or the main combining pork loin, celery and liquorice. Simple yet complex!4.3km
- L'Intuition d'André After a stint at L'Espérance in Hérouville-Saint-Clair, chef Kim Ortin opened his first restaurant with his partner Hélène on this spot not far from the Abbaye aux Hommes. In this compact bistro designed for food lovers, he does not directly reference his Caribbean origins, but rather draws on his many travels to concoct his well-constructed contemporary cuisine: tuna tataki with poppy seeds and wasabi mayonnaise; rosemary-infused cod, sweet potato purée with vanilla, grilled chorizo cream. For all that, the chef doesn't forget the comforting classics: roasted farmhouse Camembert; beef fillet 4.4km
