Christophe Le Fur: a new bistronomic adventure in Hillion

In March, Christophe Le Fur will open a new restaurant in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. The chef tells us more about this project.

Christophe Le Fur, a leading figure in Breton gastronomy, is preparing a new chapter in his career. Already at the helm of the Auberge Grand'Maison in Guerlédan, awarded three Gault&Millau toques, he is preparing to open a new restaurant in Hillion, on the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. Named Le Bon Abri, this establishment will open its doors on 1ᵉʳ March 2025 with a promise: to offer an accessible and authentic bistronomic experience.

A vision rooted in Breton terroir

It all began when Christophe Le Fur discovered a charming building in the coastal village of Hillion. "I was first asked if I knew anyone who could take over the place. Then I thought about it," he explains.

Christophe Le Fur is leading this project as part of a team. at his side, the chef can count on two pillars: his partner Sonia Quéro, who will be in charge of the dining room, and Quentin Talbourdet, who will be in charge of the Bon Abri's kitchens. "Quentinshares my culinary identity, while adding his own creativity," explains Christophe Le Fur, who will continue to devote his time to theAuberge Grand'Maison.

Le Bon Abri's cuisine will remain true to the chef's identity, blending local produce, seasonality and culinary savoir-faire. "The restaurant is 500 metres from the sea, so we'll be offering the treasures of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc, as well as vegetables, poultry and pork."Prices, deliberately more affordable than at the Auberge Grand'Maison, reflect this desire to democratize gastronomy: €25 to €30 for a lunch menu and less than €50 for dinner.

Le Bon Abri's interior design was entrusted to decorator Maison Delanoë, who imagined a space inspired by the sea. The wave-shaped bar, sandy carpeting and warm, uncluttered ambience plunge diners into an intimate setting. The restaurant will offer 26 covers in the dining room, a table for ten, a private table for 12 upstairs, and a terrace to enjoy the warm weather.

Join us in Hillion on March 1ᵉʳ 2025 to discover this new address, where Brittany is savored in all its simplicity and excellence.
