La Maison du Biscuit is a unique destination worth a detour, with its origins dating back to the early 1900s. What started as a small biscuit factory and shop has now expanded into a charming 1900s-style shopping street. The picturesque building houses high-quality snacks, treats, drinks, and spices, making it an ideal place to find gifts for loved ones. Visitors rave about the delicious madeleines and Caramels d'Isigny.

A vast shop of made on the premises biscuits. So many different types of biscuits and also local Normandy produce. There is also a cafe inside. Very friendly and we were offered biscuits to try on arrival. There is a car park at the side and across the road. A great place to buy presents.

Very nice arrangement of sweet and very tasty things. Service is very friendly and helpful. It is worth to stop here!!!

Guido K — Google review

Their butter biscuits are counted among the best biscuits I've ever had. The little house is a bit of a trek to get to, but once you're there you'll be glad you did. Apart from biscuits, there are all sorts of things to buy including stuffed toys, artisan chocolates, organic products and surprisingly, a range of exotic spices that I couldn't find anywhere else in Cherbourg. It's a great family day out and there's even a tea salon where one can test the goods before you buy a box of whatever.

Beware! Make sure you really buy is what tasted so good at the entrance! We bought packages that turned out to be factory baked supermarket standard pastries at a very high price. Not what we expected. A tourist trap business model deserves nothing but the lowest possible rating, even though the on-site products are of the highest quality.

Management B — Google review

The building is picturesque, both inside and out. La Maison du Biscuit features high quality snacks, treats, drinks, and spices and is a perfect place to buy gifts for friends and family. I can personally recommend the madeleines and the Caramels d'Isigny, which are delicious and perfect if you want to share a taste of France with a large group of people. Also be sure to check out the tea room! It’s relaxing atmosphere and wide selection of teas and accompaniments are sure to please any tea lover.

Mark S — Google review

Below average. No Wi-Fi. Poor service. It was Sunday and I ordered their breakfast deal set for €8,50. The hot coffee was very watery (not strong enough) not hot enough. The confiture was too liquid and dripped all over my hands. The brioche and bread were so so. Given the less-than-ordinary quality, this was too expensive. The restaurant is in a valley, thus no mobile signal and, what’s worse, they don’t provide Wi-Fi for their guests. I see this as a major shortcoming. If they provided Wi-Fi, people would spend more time sitting in and ordered more food. It is obvious what their business model is—to handle large volume of tourists who never return. Consequently, there is no motivation to provide quality service and products. The environment of the restaurant was not attractive. The windows were dirty. I will not return.

Historical landmark

(Translated by Google) I took a 300km detour for this thing, and I have to say it was 100% worth it. The position belongs to an old radar position, I'm not sure about the type, Würzburg giant? Rare to see the ventilation towers. An eagle above the entrance is even rarer. Signs of battle can be clearly seen. Grenade hit ventilation tower. Bullet holes in the walls of almost every room. However, the entrance area is particularly interesting. With a little imagination you can easily imagine storming here. A hand grenade must have been thrown from inside towards the entrance. The splitter and radiation direction allow this conclusion to be drawn. Further, and this is only noticeable at second glance, and I have NEVER seen this before and still makes me shudder, there are blood splatters on the wall. A hand grenade must have exploded in front of a soldier, and this fits with the Schrabnellen, and clearly hit him. Without flax...horrible. I don't have any good pictures, unfortunately only on video... Sturdy shoes, long pants and a flashlight are mandatory. But it is easily accessible from the street. (Original) Ich bin etwas 300km Umweg für das Ding gefahren, und muss sagen es hat sich 100% gelohnt. Die Stellung gehört zu einer alten Radarstellung, Typ bin ich mir unschlüssig, Würzburg Riese? Seltenst die Lüftungstürme zu sehen. Ein Adler überm Eingang noch viel seltener. Deutlich sind Kampfspuren zu finden. Granateinschlag in Lüftungsturm. In fast allen Räumen Einschusslöcher in den Wänden. Besonders interessant ist jedoch der Eingangsbereich. Mit etwas Phantasie kann hier gut die Erstürmung erdacht werden. Aus dem inneren muss eine Handgranate in Richtung Eingang geworfen worden sein. Splitter- und Abstrahlrichtung lassen diesen Rückschluss zu. Weiter, und das fällt erst beim zweiten Blick auf, und das habe ich noch NIE gesehen und lässt noch immer schaudern, sind Blutspritzer an der Wand zu sehen. Vor einem Soldaten, und das passt zu den Schrabnellen, muss eine Handgranate explodiert sein und diesen deutlich getroffen haben. Ohne Flachs....schauerlich. habe keine guten Bilder, leider nur auf Video... Festes Schuhwerk, lange Hose und Taschenlampe sind Pflicht. Ist aber gut von der Straße aus zugänglich.

Great little find if you can find it! Right hand side of the large wind turbines (park near small beige building). Watch out for the ghosts!

Ben S — Google review

(Translated by Google) Difficult to access, which is a shame because it is an interesting site. (Original) Difficile d'accès, dommage car site intéressant.

14Claude — Google review

(Translated by Google) Access is about 20 meters south of the white building and is currently clear because someone has trimmed back the undergrowth. Very impressive, especially the traces of the explosions. (Original) Zugang ist rund 20 Meter südlich des weißen Gebäudes und aktuell frei, da jemand das Gestrüpp zurückgeschnitten hat. Sehr eindrucksvoll, insbesondere die Spuren der Explosionen.

Christian S — Google review

(Translated by Google) Former Luftwaffe radar station, difficult to find, because of brush and brambles! , but interior in fairly good condition! (Original) Ancienne station radar de la Luftwaffe , difficile à trouver, car des broussailles et ronces ! , mais intérieur en assez bon état !

Norman M — Google review

(Translated by Google) Left abandoned, vegetation has invaded the place, an accessible entrance to visit the interior, it is difficult to imagine the whole as it was originally. (Original) Laissé à l'abandon, la végétation a envahi les lieux, une entrée accessible pour visiter l'intérieur, difficile d'imaginer l'ensemble tel qu'il était à l'origine.

SABRINA P — Google review

(Translated by Google) It may be beautiful but not freely accessible. Barbed wire and closed gates. Nothing to see (Original) Is misschien mooi maar niet vrij toegankelijk. Prikkeldraad en gesloten hekken. Niks te zien dus

Creperie

Grill

The creperie Berlingot Le is an outstanding establishment that offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The rib steak they serve is cooked to perfection, just as requested. The accompaniments are generous, including crispy fries, a delicate salad with a flavorful sauce, and a delicious baked apple with homemade chive sauce. The only thing missing was the celery salt to enhance the tomato juice, but this can be seen as a minor detail.

Fantastic little restaurant. Friendly service and great food. Will be back for sure.

Maybe add some to your list for even more choice! (Original) Petite crêperie très jolie et cosy ! Petit feu de bois et déco charmante ! On s’y sent bien et personnel très gentil ! Crêpes exquises ! Peut être en rajouter à votre palmarès, pour y avoir encore plus de choix !
