La Moulerie, Restaurant in Trouville-sur-Mer, France
La Moulerie is a restaurant on the quays of Trouville-sur-Mer, in Normandy, France, at 76 Boulevard Fernand Moureaux. It sits on three floors and has both indoor seating and an outdoor terrace facing the Touques river and the nearby fishing boats.
Trouville-sur-Mer grew into a seaside resort during the 19th century, while fishing remained a central part of daily life along the harbor. La Moulerie carries on that connection to the sea, set right beside the working port where fishing families have long brought in their catch.
La Moulerie serves eighteen different mussel recipes, each cooked fresh to order. This range is unusual even for a coastal town like Trouville-sur-Mer, where seafood restaurants are common.
The restaurant is open all year round and takes reservations by phone at 02.31.81.59.00. Weekends and public holidays tend to fill up fast, so booking ahead is a good idea.
The terrace is heated even in winter, making it possible to eat outside while watching the harbor no matter the season. This sets it apart from most seafood spots in the area, which close or pull in their terraces when the weather turns cold.
