Toinou, les Fruits de Mer !
Best kept secret in Aix. If you love oysters, prawns, lobsters, mussels etc you are in seafood heaven. You need to drive for about 8 minutes out of the centre of Aix (we took an Uber – €16) to get here but it is worth it. Because the restaurant also sells fresh seafood you are guaranteed everything is fresh from the ocean (except most prawns which have been frozen) because of the turnover.
We shared 24 oysters of various kind. Don’t go for the cheapest – their sort of house oysters – because they don’t taste so good and have a strange texture. But the Camargue and the Gillardeau are the best! We added some cold prawns and a fried calamari – absolutely sensational! The freshest and juiciest calamari I have ever tasted.

Slake Annecy – Coffee & Kitchen – Brunch
The best coffee and breakfast!
Australia’s that like to get up early. Slake is open earlier than most cafes in Annecy and provides wonderful service and food. Highly recommended this place. The waitress looking after us provided an English menu and checked on multiple times to see how we were going with everything.

Campagne
We bought so many things! The focaccia was definitely delicious and what we recommend the most. The one with black olives and the one with dried tomatoes.
We also got a thin bread with curry flavor and seeds. It was ok. Among the sweet options, we chose the banana cake and the lemon cake with seeds. The banana cake is very intense in flavor and includes chocolate bits.
Highly recommended! Very price but worth it. I wish they had tables to sit and order.
Haven
We stopped by for breakfast but they were already fully booked – definitely recommend arriving before 10 AM if you want a table for their brunch service. I returned later for a takeaway latte, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere looked really inviting, and we’re looking forward to coming back when we can actually try their food. Based on how busy they were and the great vibe, it seems like a popular spot worth the wait.
Sanzaru Brunch Annecy
We had an absolutely wonderful brunch here with my family! From the moment we arrived, the welcome was warm and genuine. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and every detail made us feel truly cared for. The food was exceptional — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Each dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and there was something delicious for everyone. The atmosphere of the place is charming and inviting, making it perfect for a relaxed family meal. A real gem in Annecy — we’ll definitely be coming back!
