For a craving for bistronomy: Le Petit François
Le Petit François is the perfect bistronomic address on Île de Nantes. Bistronomy is a cuisine that is halfway between bistro cuisine and gastronomy. So we are generous in portions while working with good products that are beautifully presented. And if we can give you one piece of advice, it's to go to Le Petit François on Wednesday evening, to enjoy cost-price aperitifs there.They are proposing ape parties. For these ape parties, reservation is obligatory because there is demand.

For a craving for crepes: Just Bigoud'
Because according to some, Nantes is in Brittany (we won't take sides on that), we had to offer you a creperie on the Ile de Nantes. This is Just Bigoud' (note the pun), located on Rue Louis Blanc. Here, you'll find a traditional creperie with its stone walls. We recommend trying their République galette with Nantes-style filling, a local pride. And if you're not into galettes or crepes, the establishment also offers salads, open-faced sandwiches, casseroles, and Breizh burgers (burgers where the bun is replaced with .
