The best restaurants in Honfleur take advantage of the town's charming harbour, medieval architecture and picturesque ocean views. Located just 2 hours away from Paris, it's usually popular with travellers looking for old-world glam on the French coastline. With its numerous sailboats and vibrant cafes lined up along the waterfront, it’s no wonder Honfleur served as a muse for many Impressionist artists.
