La Cave restaurant was the little restaurant connected to our hotel in Pontorson, Hotel La Cave. We had dinner and breakfast here during our one night stay.
The restaurant is located at the front of the hotel, and has an attractive frontage with some bright flower boxes. Inside it has been fitted out to have a bit of a 'cave' feel, with bumpy walls and a low ceiling.
There was only a few tables of diners the night we were there (it was a Monday night), all patrons of the hotel, but it is open to the public as well. The friendly hotel owner was also our waiter and barman for the evening.
The food was tasty! Alex & I had the lamb cooked in herbs which had an amazing flavour. Chris had the ham cooked in cider which she also enjoyed.
Dessert for Chris was a selection of cheeses that she deemed excellent, I had the Crème Brulee and Alex had the Apple tart.
We also managed to polish off a nice bottle of wine and coffee afterwards.

Great staff, very welcoming and spoke great English to help us with our horrible French. The salads, crepes and gallettes were amazing! Best price for the money.
They also have rooms available for the night at a great price.
We enjoyed the warm goat cheese on a salad and the gallettes with onion, ham, and creme Theme: FrenchPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: Rue de Mont St Michel 21, Beauvoir FrancePhone: 02 33 58 42 83Directions: on route to Mont st Michel

To spend a day at the Mont and not eat at La Mere Poulard (and possibly stay at its Inn) is a terrible mistake. We have eaten there twice. Make a reservation as soon as you enter the gates (it is on the left-See our Travelog). The omelette is a plain one with lots of local eggs and butter beaten madly in a long-handled special pan and cooked over a wood fire. (The man on the left is heating one in the picture). The omelette is cited in the Larousse Gastronomique and the restaurant gets a rosette in the Michelin. We had the omelette for dessert and local seafood first (we were having salt-marsh grazed lamb in the evening-See our Hotel Tip).
The omelette flambee is large enough to be a dessert for more than two. (We found our 10 yr old grandson did not knowingly eat eggs and so we had too much after our main course).

This expensive hotel restaurant is famous for its omelettes. It barely serves any other kind of food. The thing that impressed me was that the chef after preparing my omelette cut it approx at 2/3s length and throw the rest 1/3 at the dustbin. I never understood why.

Everything in Mont Saint Michel feels like a tourist trap. Except, of course for the beautiful abbey. Enjoy a half day at the mount and then head to another town to stay and for dinner. I suggest Saint Malo, we had a wonderful time there our first night and then headed to MSM for the 2nd and wished we had stayed in Saint Malo. ALL the Food in MSM is OVERPRICED AND BAD - right down to the coffee at the only outdoor cafe (4.50 Euro - for a cup of black coffee, which was bad). Please take the advice of a well traveled and very optomistic traveler - spend your money else where. Leave a Comment

La Mere Poulard (In Le Mont Saint Michel)
What a terrible restaurant for an terribly high price and a horrible service; a true tourist trap. We had the remarkably stupid idea of having a light dinner on April 14, 2009. An omelet with about 2 tablespoons of lobster meat and 1 tablespoon of dry white rice for 48 EU !!!! 3 omelets with a bottle of wine for 174 EU= 233 $ US. You get a much better tasting omelet at McDonalds for pennies ! The service was even worse; the waiter spilled our bottle of wine and to show his remorse he came back with a glass (yes a single glass) of a miscellaneous red wine ! An overall terrible experience. Do yourselves a favor; stay out of it. They deserve to go out of business.

OK, you are in France. Supposed to be a country where we eat well. OK. OK, omelette is good. OK. La Mère Poulard is supposed to make a very famous omelette. One of the best in the country. OK. The place looks really nice inside.
Not OK. The price. Not OK. To take people for dumbs.
Omelette might be good... well, hope so... Leave a Comment Theme: FrenchComparison: most expensive
