“ A fantastic find in St Malo, lovely small French bistro in the side streets. Found it by accident but went back twice. Understated food on a chalk board menu with daily specials. Loved the rabbit terrine and souris d'agneau especially but the duck legs with phenomenal chips was also something special. Great friendly service as well! ”
“ Fantastic food. The lamb in particular was superb. Reasonable prices and friendly service. Highly recommended. ”
“ In the town where modern restaurants seem to be the rage, I was delighted to find at last a traditional bistro. More than what I was looking for, Au Coup de Canon delivers classic dishes of superb quality, affordable price, and good service against the backdrop of a beautifully decorated interior that involves nostalgia. We chose the baked lamb and the entrecôte formula - both of which were generously portioned and terrific in taste! The sole waiter was running the whole show but he was still courteous and prompt throughout our time there. If you seek an authentic French bistro experience at Saint Malo, seek no further! ”
“ Food was amazing-our best meal in Saint Malo. Cool vibe and fantastic service. It was super busy, but we were seated very quickly even without a reservation and served drinks, food, etc. without a wait. We cannot wait to go back! ”
“ Excellent food and service. Snails were lovely. As was black pudding and steak. Lovely atmospheric setting too. Fries were also a highlight. Serving wasn’t super quick, which isn’t a bad thing, but just make sure you give yourself enough time to dine and enjoy… ”
“ Lunch for two, ribeye steak and a rack of lamb. Cooked to perfection, pink lamb and medium steak. Washed down with a glass of Chardonnay. Great host and we shared a laugh. ”
