There is a wealth of seafood restaurants in Bayeux, unsurprisingly, and the catch of the day is always a reliable choice. Several of the hotels offer great food and there is a plethora of restaurants serving authentic Norman dishes that with set the taste buds tingling.

Expect to pay about 10-20% less for a meal compared with what you would pay in the UK. As always, choosing the set menus are better value than eating à la carte, with no compromise on quality.
