    La Malle aux Épices Quite comfortable restaurant

    A convivial atmosphere reigns in this village hideaway, which is also the newsagents and café. From one of the rooms, you can even see the chef concocting his tasty dishes, which are full of exotic flavour.

    Le Vauban Comfortable restaurant 

    22 quai Caligny F - 50100 Cherbourg
