Le Sand

Cafe, Restaurant, Cocktail Bar, French

Le Sand is one of a string of informal beach cafés that opened fairly recently and have proven to be a hit.

Le Globe Trotter

A mandatory gathering spot in Le Touquet, Le Globe Trotter is lively from morning to night as it goes from café/bistro to cocktail bar/pub. Its located smack in the middle of the action in the pedestrianized Rue de Metz. Sports watchers can follow the game on the big screens and cheer along with the locals.

The Spoon

If you feel like experiencing the brand of smart-casual elegance that Le Touquet is known for, head to the golf course and people-watch while you enjoy a lovely breakfast at The Spoon. The omelets are delicious if you prefer to linger into brunch … and why not hit the links afterward? Then you can come back and enjoy the great three-course lunch menu. Just fabulous.

Le Copo

Cafe, French

Early birds searching for a slice of local color can head to Le Copo for the typical combination of café/bar/horse race betting. Settle in one of sidewalk tables with your grand crême, pain au chocolat, and the paper like a true Touquetois, and enjoy the authentic atmosphere and friendly welcome of Le Copo.

Jeané's Café

Restaurant, French

Are you craving a full English breakfast? There’s a table waiting for you at Jean’s Café, located on the main pedestrian street Rue Saint Jean, just steps from the beach. Sit on the terrace to watch Le Touquet go by, or settle in one of the inside tables and enjoy the Belle Époque atmosphere with an Anglo-Saxon influence with brass, leather, and dark wood furnishings.
