Where a car takes you from Rennes
These are the day trips from Rennes on our own pages where a car earns its keep. Trains reach some of them; a car reaches all of them, on your own clock.
- Cancale, the oyster port Cancale is where Rennes gets its oysters
- Saint-Malo, butter and the crêpe workshop Saint-Malo is a butter town: Bordier churns here and runs its own bistro around the product, and the intramuros crêmeries sell it by the slab
- Baie du Mont-Saint-Michel, mussels and salt-marsh lamb The bay behind Mont-Saint-Michel produces two protected foods: bouchot mussels raised on posts in the tide, and lamb grazed on the salt marshes
- Fougères, the medieval town and its pork Fougères pairs a vast medieval castle with a small food scene, and Galon Ar Breizh is the address the department's tourist board names for confit pork
- Mellé, farmhouse cheese and ice cream Fruits des Prés at Mellé turns the milk from its own goats and cows into cheese and ice cream, a farm-gate stop in the bocage north-east of Rennes
- Cancale, the Roellinger spice shop The Roellinger spice shop in Cancale sells the blends and peppers the family built its cooking on, and it pairs neatly with an oyster lunch on the qua
