Guernsey is known for its delicious and varied cuisine. The island's location in the English Channel means that it has been influenced by both French and British cooking styles, resulting in a unique and flavourful culinary scene. One of the most famous dishes in Guernsey is Guernsey gâche, a sweet bread that is traditionally served at Christmas. Other popular local specialities include Guernsey bean jar, a hearty stew made with beans and vegetables; and ormer, a type of shellfish that is found in the island's waters. In addition to these traditional dishes, there are also plenty of international options available in Guernsey, pizza and curry. No matter what type of food you are in the mood for, you will be able to find something to satisfy your cravings in Guernsey. Here are a few of our favourite island eateries:-
