With a contemporary feel, incredible views, and all of Le Touquet’s great beach shacks, Plage des Pirates is right on the sand. The restaurant offers cocktails and casual meals, served with flair.

Fabulous beach café on the northern end of Le Touquet strip. Contemporary feel in the décor and music as well as and choice of cocktails and menu, including tempting cheese and charcuterie boards to share.

Restaurant Perard’s Bar à huitres is an institution in Le Touquet, with a well-deserved reputation for the best seafood in town. For a more casual approach, enter through the fishmonger shop on Rue de Metz, and you’ll find the more informal counter of the oyster bar—opening right on the sidewalk—serving caviar, lobster, oysters, and the most fantastic prawns.

It is a local tradition to buy your fish fresh on the fishermen’s waterside market stalls from the boat in neighbouring Étaples. Planète Océan, located right on the pier upstairs, offers delicious ultra-fresh simple fish and seafood dishes at reasonable prices with friendly and quick service. A more informal tapas bar/seafood shack is located on the ground level, and it serves everything from oysters to moules frites and seafood boards to share for very reasonable prices.
