Brasserie Là-Haut

Nestled on the second floor of La Rochelle Aquarium (free access from the lobby, with an entrance independent from the visitor route), “Là-Haut” Brasserie overlooks the Old Harbour and offers a unique view of La Rochelle’s two famous towers from its light-filled panoramic dining room and terrace.

Away from the hustle and bustle, yet just a short walk from Espace Encan, the restaurant combines tranquillity and simplicity. The nearby Encan public car park provides convenient access. A place where guests can relax without constraint and enjoy a shared view of the harbour.

Open to the world, the restaurant’s culinary philosophy is defined by the union of a gourmet French tradition and a commitment to responsible practices. A spontaneous, generous and accessible home-made cuisine, driven by respect for quality ingredients and the seasons, all in the service of Taste.

Food and drinks to go

Located opposite the entrance to La Rochelle Aquarium, the Aquarium Kiosk offers a delightful gourmet stop. A simple and welcoming spot where guests can enjoy views over the fishing harbour basin, with La Rochelle’s famous towers providing a stunning backdrop.

Open from 9:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. during the summer and from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. throughout the rest of the year, the menu caters to every craving: sweet treats, savoury snacks, hot drinks and refreshing beverages. The savoury offerings are prepared in-house by the team of Là-Haut Brasserie, with the same commitment to quality and homemade cuisine.

Visitors can choose between a covered terrace and an outdoor terrace. The former provides comfortable shelter, while the latter opens onto the harbour, the constant movement of boats and the iconic silhouette of the towers. A view to savour on site, or to take away and enjoy a little longer.
