le Four à Ban

In the XVIIth century, the rue Saint Melaine was already famous for its superb oven, one of these places where the people of Rennes used to come to have their bread baked.

Today it is one of the recommended addresses in town, and the Four à Ban is entirely renovated.

Wood, glass and stone have been associated and it gives the ancient house a touch of modernity; the glass certainly gives it a certain kind of luminosity, highlighting the old fireplace and exposed beams.

And today still, the bread is baked twice a day at le Four à Ban…

But the establishment is above all well known for its refined cuisine and friendly atmosphere.

In the kitchen we find Jacques Faby, who used to have stars in the Michelin guide but who gave up these distinctions for a calmer atmosphere and to do what he likes best, welcome and satisfy his guests in his own way. And he certainly knows how to charm with an original kind of cuisine, very fresh and tasty.

He mixes his Mediterranean origins with the excellent flavours of his region of adoption, allying the sunshine of the South and Breton traditions, in a refined and elegant way.

The ideal gourmet menu, composed especially for you, will lead you on a discovery of the Chef’s most appreciated compositions, giving you a wide range of choices. The most demanding taste buds will no doubt be satisfied.

With a most professional welcome and service, whether you come for a family gathering or with friends, as a couple or for a business meal, you are certain to have an exceptional time at Le Four à Ban!
