Poissonnerie Chez Eliette, Seafood market and restaurant in Andernos-les-Bains, France
Poissonnerie Chez Eliette is a seafood shop with a retail counter and adjoining dining area in Andernos-les-Bains, where visitors choose from the day's fresh catches displayed on ice. The layout connects the market section directly to the kitchen, allowing staff to prepare selected items for immediate serving.
The shop began as a small family business when Eliette established direct connections with local fishing boats to secure daily deliveries of fresh catches. These relationships with fishermen continue to shape the quality and freshness of what is offered today.
The shop follows coastal traditions by displaying fish and shellfish on seaweed beds, keeping alive the presentation methods that have been used in this region for many years.
The market operates from 9:00 to 13:00 Tuesday through Sunday, while the restaurant section serves from 19:00 onward on Monday and Wednesday through Sunday. Plan to visit during morning hours for shopping or evening hours for dining, allowing time for food preparation.
A distinctive feature is the ability to select seafood at market prices from the counter and have professional chefs prepare it on the spot, rather than ordering preset dishes. This direct service means visitors get exactly the quality and portion they choose.
