From snacks to high quality cuisine, the restaurants in Pays de Saint Jean de Monts are a must for all those who enjoy good food.

• Experience the warm and lively surroundings at the heart of the bustling areas of Pays de Saint Jean de Monts by stopping off at one of the many bars and restaurants with their lively outdoor terraces.
• There are unmissable opportunities hidden away in the heart of the Breton Vendéen marshes and the peace and calm at the edge of the waterways.
• In some restaurants it’s the location as well as than the food which is the appeal. Whether it’s in a traditional farmhouse, a vendéen bourrine (peasant cottage), or an old renovated farm, these places bring back a part of Vendee’s history.

Good food at any time in Vendée restaurants

• Do you only have a few minutes left between finishing the chapter of your book and your sand-yachting lesson? If so, eat on the move at a snack bar with your feet in the water, at a foodtruck table or in one of the lively pedestrian areas.
• Hello hello – have your pre-dinner drinks session been extended! This is often the case during the wonderful summer evenings so check out the restaurants which offer service after 10pm
• Sunday morning 11am – too late for breakfast and too early for lunch – why not try brunch overlooking the sea?
• 4pm – holiday snack time and a reminder that afternoon snacks are for all ages. In some restaurants there is service all day.

When we come to the seaside, our mouths are already watering for the seafood and fish.

The restaurants in Pays de Saint Jean de Monts make the most of the secret recipes and techniques shared by the local inhabitants to prepare some of the local specialities. With this knowledge they are able to suggest around 40 recipes which are 100% vendéen:

  • Restaurant Le Robinson
    • The chef Vincent Potier cooks the maraichine recipe for pan-fried eels in parsley

    • Thin eels in parsley

    • Maraichin flan (dessert)

You can accompany your “gralaie” with salicorne (a type of local pickle) and a piece of duck from Challans.
