About
Maison Quintin – La Perle de Quéhan is a family‑run oyster house that has been part of the Breton countryside since the 1960s. Nestled on the right bank of the river Crach in southern Brittany, the cellar blends traditional oyster‑raising techniques with modern, sustainable practices to produce some of France’s finest flat and pocket oysters.

At Maison Quintin, the culinary experience is just the beginning. The firm also runs a live‑stock showroom and an online boutique that sells oysters, shellfish, and small‑batch gourmet items.

Whether you’re here for a leisurely lunch, a romantic dinner, or a special oyster tasting, the place delivers a complete feast for the senses, showcasing the bounty of Brittany’s coastal waters in a warm, family‑friendly setting.
