Pleasingly unpretentious and ever so slightly haphazard, Chez Lindsay is a neighbourhood restaurant with wide appeal. Couples savour plates of oysters, while families tuck in to a pancake feast.

Unstuffy (though by no means cheap) Breton food and drink is the focus, with buckwheat galettes a speciality and a range of bottled ciders that includes rosé and pear varieties. The wine list highlights the neighbouring Loire Valley, though the house selection is sourced from the south. Grands plats include interesting regional specialities around the £20 mark. La cotriade, a Breton fish stew with cabbage and potatoes, was gussied up with nuggets of lobster and a langoustine, but remained authentically bony. The liquor demanded to be mopped up, but bread had to be requested. Steak was tender and nicely charred, with skinny frîtes and perfect béarnaise.

The sweet pancakes are less imaginative than the savoury, and mark-ups are staggering, particularly on flambéed options. Still, a simple beurre-sucre allowed the flavour of a good-sized crêpe to come through, and ice-creams, including vividly purple lavender and luxurious calvados flavours, were a treat. Approach the evening and weekend prix fixe with caution – it can work out more expensive than ordering off the carte.
