Le Mytilus, Seaside restaurant in Cayeux-sur-Mer, France.
Le Mytilus is a seafood restaurant in Cayeux-sur-Mer on the northern coast, where chefs prepare fresh fish, mussels, and shellfish sourced daily from local suppliers. The menu rotates with each season, ensuring dishes feature only what is currently available.
The restaurant sits in a region where fishing and shellfish farming have existed for centuries and continue to define the local economy. This heritage of seafood preparation remains central to how the kitchen operates today.
The name Mytilus refers to mussels cultivated in the Somme Bay, which form the heart of local food culture in this region. The menu shows how shellfish farming has shaped what people in this coastal town eat and value.
The dining room is open Tuesday through Sunday, with shorter hours on some days and extended service on others. A veranda overlooking the bay offers the best seating for views while you eat.
The menu is deliberately short, offering only four rotating choices for appetizers, mains, and desserts. This limitation allows each dish to be prepared with extra care and attention.
