What can I say, this is my local. Love this bar. Quimper is a small town with a great deal of intimacy, so this bar (along with many others) is a core supporter of the local rugby club. Being a member, I find myself often here with friends and loved ones of the club, whether enjoying an after work drink of a Friday or a birthday dinner. Sté has a butcher's counter in the restaurant, where you can pick your cut of meat before it is cooked, so you are guaranteed fresh and succulent. He also sources all his vegetables locally so everything is of excellent quality. Whether it's a friendly drink or a sit down meal, you really can't go wrong with the St Mat. Given enough notice, they will also cater to large groups, which is ideal when touring teams are in town!

The staff is very welcoming and gives very good advice, we had different dishes, the quantities of which were generous. The entrecôte was very good as well as the chosen starters but the minced steak was not as good and we were disappointed to see that the tartare prepared was with mayonnaise. Allergens are seriously taken into account, which is positive!

Le Saint Mathieu stands out in the Meat Restaurants category. The welcome is pleasant and professional. The service is attentive, with advice and suggestions on dishes and wines; very pleasant contact.
On the extensive menu, meat is of course in the spotlight. You can also see it in the maturation display in the room.
The cooking of my entrecôte was perfect and the meat was of very good quality, very tender.
A very good evening in this restaurant to discover in the city center of Quimper, 4 minutes from the cathedral.

Sao
On the quayside of the River Odet in Quimper city centre, this restaurant is the brainchild of Kevin Gourret, who was previously chef at Le Goyen restaurant in Audierne. In an inviting contemporary setting, he serves original recipes inspired by local ingredients (langoustine, local fish, seaweed, buckwheat, buttermilk) and Asian influences (such as yuzu, ponzu, gomasio, sesame and ginger).

Allium
Thanks to a crowd funding campaign, Frédérique and Lionel Hénaff have opened the restaurant of their dreams. The chef’s inventive streak is harnessed to a score that focuses on fresh produce and encompasses a multitude of ingredients (herbs, flowers) with a weakness for siphoned sauces. A tasteful, elegant vibe sets the scene in the dining room, which also boasts a handful of seats at the counter facing the open kitchen.

La Ferme de l'Odet
This stone-built country house has a terrace overlooking the banks of the Odet River and the nearby woods. The hearty cuisine is made with quality local ingredients. The cooking is spot on, as exemplified by the roast monkfish, with its golden exterior and firm, melt-in-the-mouth flesh; the flavour combinations are well balanced and the flavours themselves are bold and highly seasoned, the homemade ketchup or the vanilla cream being a case in point. Delicious!

Ti-Coz
This picture postcard stone inn offers both country appeal and a modern elegant interior, reminiscent of an English club. The chef is a fan of flavoursome, traditional cuisine that shines the spotlight on the best of Brittany’s ingredients. A former sommelier, he pairs his recipes with a fantastic 500-strong wine bin.

Nous Restaurant
With its discreet façade and small glass-paned front door, this restaurant is located in a pedestrianised cobbled street in the city centre. The light-filled interior has bay windows overlooking the street on one side and a pretty courtyard decorated with large window boxes on the other. The chef puts a lot of work into his dishes, which are made using local ingredients. The courgette flower, soufflé with fine pollack stuffing, shellfish sauce vierge, rocket cream and two-lemon fritter is a good illustration of his masterful dishes that are packed with flavour.

Éclosion
This colourful, musical eatery in the heart of Quimper hatches modern, inventive bistronomic nosh, crafted by two seasoned chefs who’ve both knocked around a bit. The food reflects their experience and know-how: pink roast duck flanked by mashed, kernels and biscuits of corn, a few gooseberries and roquette leaves; confit of monkfish is paired with courgettes, chard and figs, while the decadent dessert stars fresh strawberries with raspberry sorbet and a roquette sponge cake. Generous, balanced dishes and cheerful service.
