A magical place open to us all !

It's new architecture gives the building a look of a pavilion offering one of the best views of the harbour entry and the sea wall around the port of Cherbourg.

 

Come aboard !
Situated in the center of the Transatlantic ferry terminal, the restaurant will be another pleasurable part of your visit to the Cité de La Mer, either for a family meal, with friends or colleagues.
It's a la carte and fixed menus allow you to have a quick lunch, a gastronomic meal or a business lunch according to your wishes.

Comfort  : the structure covering the restaurant has been created to fit in with the attractive environment by giving a warm feel to the area whilst leaving visible the magnificent architecture of the Terminal building (recorded in the historical monuments inventory).

Once comfortably seated you can't help but admire the scenery. The huge bay window gives a view over the port and the sea wall where the constant comings and goings of fishing boats, ferries and yachts can be seen. There is also a view of the Redoutable submarine, where the Cité de la Mer visit starts.

The open kitchen allows you to watch the cooks at work. The teak furniture and wood flooring brings back nostalgic memories of life on board the transatlantic ships.

In the summer, the outside terrace has its "feet in water" and brings diners a change of scenery and a real feeling of escaping reality.

The restaurant « Le Quai des Mers » is located in the Transatlantic ferry terminal in the heart of the Cité de La Mer museum in Cherbourg (department 50)

Access is easy - simply follow the signposts to Cité de la Mer.
