Located in the heart of Pornic's picturesque Old Port district, La Sarrazine is a local institution that has been a fixture on the town's culinary scene since 1973. Since October 2023, Fred and Sylvia Thomas have taken over the reins of this emblematic establishment, breathing new life into this not-to-be-missed address.
The choice of Pornic was no accident for Fred. He spent his childhood holidays in this charming town, and always dreamed of settling here.
Homemade crêpes and galettes
With many years' experience in the restaurant trade, notably in England and on the Ile d'Oléron where they ran a crêperie, Fred and Sylvia bring their know-how and passion for cooking to La Sarrazine.
At La Sarrazine, everything is homemade using fresh seasonal produce. The menu offers a wide choice of sweet and savoury crêpes and galettes to suit every taste. Fans of traditional Breton cuisine will be delighted to find the great classics, while the more curious can discover some original creations.
Sylvia, in the kitchen, concocts tasty and generous recipes, while Fred ensures warm and friendly service in the dining room.
