I found La Mere Champlain open and super busy, but they were kind enough to find me a table just for one...person. I was a bit in the middle of things and I did have a companion of sorts, the french bull dog that eyed everything I ate through the whole meal. I started with a shell fish platter that was excellent! I ordered the Bar Filet not knowing it was fish I was not familiar with the term)..Sadly, I could not eat it as it was too fishy for me. I am particular with fish so I blame myself only. I am sure anyone else would have loved it including my short friend)...the dessert was very good. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I would go back! I was so happy they were open...Thank you Mere Champlain.

Not sure why, but the oysters I had (from the beds that you can see from the windows of...this restaurant) were the only ones I ate in Brittany that weren't that great. I'm sure it was an anomaly. Everything else at the restaurant was tasty--including some delicious and reasonably priced wines.

The 49-euro menu includes lobster as a starter, sole meunière (a very good size) as a main course, and dessert; everything was perfect.

Excellent table with good value for money. read more Excellent table with good value for money.
