L'Absinthe

Harbour-facing restaurant in medieval rooms with excellent Norman cuisine

Address 10, quai de la Quarantaine

Facing the harbour, L'Absinthe occupies two dining rooms with exposed stonework, beams, and fireplaces — one dating from the 15th century (a former English guardhouse during the Hundred Years' War), the other from the 17th century. The food matches the setting: classic Norman cooking with good use of local seafood, cream, and Calvados. Reservations recommended in season.
