Port Cros and Porquerolles Restaurants |  |
In PORT CROS
Anyway, the prices of restaurants in Port Cros have to take into account the transport of the goods from the continent to the ile and the big irregularity of the attendance according to the meteorological conditions, thus, if you want to eat cheap, bring your picnic basket!! On the other hand, if you want to take advantage of terraces on the port and of their unforgettable atmosphere, here is our opinion on the 5 restaurants of the ile. Our first choice: the Trinquette, with a varied enough card, salads, pizzas, fishes, a good reception and moderate prices for the region, in 2008, the management changed, no longer pizzas, but a value for money which remains correct Le Sun bistrot . It is the place for the divers who come to re-inflate their bottles before diving back after noon. Rather simple cooking, but moderate prices. L?Anse de Port Cros: Specialist of the fish coming fresh from the water by the only local fisher authorized to fish by the National park of Port Cros (who also supplies the other restaurants) service and cooks well-kept. Prices sharply higher than in the Trinquette or in the Sun bistro, the counterpart of a more smart atmosphere. The reception is not always smiling. L'Hostellerie de Port Cros:We had an unpleasant experience with guests and the waiter took advantage of this to push excessively to the consumption. Thus we do not return there any more!! If you accept to spend more: the Manoir , at the bottom of the bay, 400 mrs from the port, with a magnificent terrace overhanging the water and festive and not cheap menus. In PORQUEROLLES Useless to speak about value for money on the island of Porquerolles. Here, the tourist is exploited, that begins in th paying car parks of la Tour Fondue and continues with the maritime shuttle, which is the object of a juicy monopoly (the price to go / return is comparable to a passage for Corsica with Corsica Ferries in flat period!!). Contrary to Port Cros, where the attendance is very uneven, the crowd is permanent here, that makes the prices excessive. The reputation of the island is however such as it remains a privileged destination, in spite of the daily budget to be foreseen !We advise you a restaurant with acceptable prices, on Place d'Armes (the main place of the village, crossed by all the roads of the island): the Adventure. Salads, pizzas and wines at correct prices, service overcharged at rush hours. On the height of the Place dArmes, Lou Cigalou, with a formula today's special + economic dessert and an attractive internal terrace under trees. Fast and pleasant service Also on the same place: la Calanque, with moderate prices, but very basic cooking, and where tables are stuck one against each other. We also advise you in Porquerolles island the restaurant of the Plage d' Argent: placed on a magnificent terrace overhanging very frequented Silver Beach (in 10 minutes by foot on the West of the harbour), this establishment takes advantage of its exceptional position without too much excess. The prices are rather high, but the cooking is looked after and rather creative. The service and the reception could be more smiling (the boss is completely stressed , what sometimes gives place to unpleasant incidents, even if we understand that the tourists are not always pleasant). It is absolutely indispensable to reserve, possibly the day before. Tel 04 94 58 32 48 Let us not forget the famous Mas du Langoustier. For those who do not care with a 100-? addition per person, it is an excellent address, in a site totally protected in the western South of the island. Tel: 04 94 58 34 83. Better come rather in helicopter, it is the must. |
