 MUR DE BRETAGNE

Auberge Grand’Maison 1, rue Léon le Cerf 22530 Mur De BretagneTel: 02 96 28 51 10

Fixed price menu from 26 € (weekday lunchtimes) to 90 €. This is a real favourite of mine, it is smart but the atmosphere is relaxed. Superb food (the chef won a bronze medal in a recent national dessert competition) and the wine list has been carefully selected with some excellent but realtively "unknown" wines from the Languedoc. The attentive staff speak pretty good English. Treat yourself and be prepared to splash out! Closed: Sunday evenings, all day Monday and, in low season, Tuesday lunchtimes.  Annual Closure :Jan 2 to 8, Feb15 to March 1 and Oct 8 to 23.

Michelin 3 forks.  Gault&Millau 14/20. Petit Futé recommended.

Petit Futé
 
Un sympathique hôtel, bar, crêperie dans un village tranquille. L’hôtellerie est de bon niveau dans cette jolie maison bretonne et les repas conviviaux autour des galettes, à l’andouille de Guémené ou à la saucisse de la région. Bon accueil, environnement agréable.
