Au Vieux Safran - Cancale

Beautiful views from the terrace, wonderful oysters, well cooked meals and beautifully presented. cancale in October is often sunny and always beautiful

I had to have the great seafood tray. huge, generous, tasty and varied composed of shrimps, langoustines, palourdes, mussels, bigorneaux, crab, and more! My wife had delicious mussels. a view of the water - than ask for a bottle of white soap ! Good coffee. The servers didn't speak English but whatever.

We had experienced oysters earlier and had not made a reservation for dinner, but it went well. the two places we had planned were complete, including the hotel where we stayed. We walked a little in the street and found ourselves in the old saffron. No white tablecloths and quiet meals here. but a delicious cuisine, excellent service and a chance to meet several couples sitting nearby. a lot of discussions and laughter. everyone shares stories of travels, pleasure and incredible food! we ordered two different kinds of mussels and some other items as well. Everything was excellent. It was a wonderful dinner.

We've come in randomly, feeling lucky to have the last table. However, the food was not as good as what I expected for a very busy restaurant. the holy jacques were tiny and slightly too cooked. The portions are small too. the lobsters were too cooked and the taste of purée, which was a waste. But the oysters were great.

Three of us ate here one evening and it was a very pleasant experience. The ladies had some skating sauce with the capers and I was able to offer a Breton sausage - not a big fan of seafood. all dishes were well cooked and presented with a smile. the staff was friendly and attentive without a plan. prices were surprisingly reasonable given the excellent location. excellent value for money.
