There was a single chef prepping the plates and working the grill. Steak was prepared as requested and the potatoes were cooked to perfection. The crepe and coffee for dessert was a perfect combination for completion of the meal. The taste and quality of the meal is a reason to visit Vitre.

A charming little crepe shop in Vitré serving award-winning galettes and crepes (plus hard cider!)…read more I'm a big fan and follower of these places that commit to using organic and local products, and am so happy that Creperie La Clé Des Champs has received well-deserved recognition for doing exactly that. We arrived around 11:45 am on a Tuesday, when they were just opening up for business (mind you, they open for only 2-hours a day), and we were lucky to be seated as we showed up without a reservation. By 12:30, the restaurant was full. The menu (both in French and English) has four large pages filled with galette and crepe options - either a la carte or included in a menu (all inclusive meal). I wanted to try what they were famous for in Bretagne, so I opted for the Country Menu, which is a deal at 12,90 Euro: Glass of Cider, Galette with ham, egg, and Emmental cheese, Crepe with butter and sugar or honey. This is a mom-and-pop shop, and the husband makes everything fresh to order (including the batter, as we heard him whisking away in the kitchen). Meanwhile, the wife maintains the front of the house, pouring drinks and taking orders. Be forewarned, service is somewhat slow, but that is to be expected with the aforementioned. Just order a bottle of cider and enjoy the company you're with in this quaint lunch spot!

After exploring this lovely medieval village, I had a blissful lunch experience here last summer…read more I love the ambience. It has beautiful, comfortable furniture and decor and a warm feeling tone I felt as though I were in the home dining room of Claude, the owner who skillfully and lovingly prepares savory galettes in his spotless kitchen. Galettes are buckwheat crêpes, a signature dish of French Brittany. Using a variety of fresh, high-quality ingredients, Claude quickly and artfully prepared three galettes simultaneously, before my wondering eyes. He expertly ladled, spread, flipped, topped, and folded three galettes all with different fillings. The traditional ham, Emmental cheese, and fried egg is probably the most popular. I savored every bite of my very large and perfect galette with its crispy edges. Chase yours with a glass of cidre made from local apples. No, it's not apple cider. Speaking of apples, my dessert was a luscious apple crêpe with real whipped cream. Great food, generous portions, fair prices, attractive surroundings, attentive service, and Claude's personal touch. It doesn't get any better than this. Movie night? This amazing little crêperie is also conveniently located just steps from the Aurore Cinema.

The ambience, menu, food quality, and service were superb. The server we had was very knowledgeable about the menu and the origins of all the high quality ingredients. Even the dishes the food was served on were unique and interesting. From appetizer through dessert, we experienced a flawless meal. This is a place I look forward to visiting again.

I had the tuna, which was perfectly cooked and surrounded by a succulent puree of red peppers with leeks. The wife had the lamb, which she also said was delicious. For a starter we tried the scallops in a cream sauce--so tender and NOT overcooked. Desert was a homemade mille feuille that used whipping cream instead of pastry cream, making it much lighter than your usual mille feuille. The service was brisk and efficient. If you can get a table on the terrace, go for it. The restaurant was packed on a Thursday night so be sure to make a reservation and expect tight tables--typical in France. The place as crowded with happy locals, a sure sign that it delivers great food at a fair price.
