L'after - Port-en-Bessin-Huppain

Took my group of 14 people here after booking some weeks in advance. Friendly place with great food and drinks, and all at sensible prices. Tucked away around a corner so no harbour views, but still recommended as such good value and service.

Take sunglasses as the decor is a bit loud. As the review ratings were above average compared to other restaurants in the town we decided to give it a try. May be it was because we had just missed the 7:30 deadline for the set menu that the restaurant was empty but it should have been an omen really. There was one couple in before us so very little atmosphere and the heavy blues music (of which I'm usually a fan) made the whole meal a completely lack lustre experience. I also noticed the waitress divvy up a bottle of coke between two glasses and make up the lack of volume (the menu stated 33cl) with ice. Not the greatest crime in the world but just summed up a bit of a desparate feel to the place. The mussels we had were ok but not a patch on those that we had eaten through out the holiday elsewhere. At best, disappointing (and not cheap). Being our first meal in the town we assumed that all the eateries were tourist traps thankfully the next meal was at Le Bistrot d'a Cote around the corner. L'After could learn a great deal from making a visit to their local competitor and just prevent themselves from going bust.

Do not be put off by the exterior, once inside we were made very welcome by a waiter who spoke good English. He took the time to explain each menu so that we knew exactly what we were getting. Food soon arrived and was very tasty, clean lates went back to the kitchen.

Beautiful restaurant! We visited the city looking for an open restaurant for lunch, but we found almost everything closed until 19:00. We went to L'a after asking when they opened and the chef welcomed us warmly and told us that he could open the kitchen. We had the burger The after, the cute net and the vegan burger. Everything was wonderfully prepared, delicious and worth more than the price. The vegan burger was also the first vegan meal we found during our week in Normandy, and what fun. A charming little restaurant with a wonderful chef and fantastic cuisine! Very recommended! Beautiful restaurant!

1 Andoile because it was the only restaurant or there was room, but we understand why when you went out. On the evening of the disaster, the mussels were of a weird, white smell and dry and cold frozen fries. We complained and then we heard that 1 or 2 tables around us complained. The chief's escus or won't do anything. Our neighbors are 5 euros discount. To escape
