We spoke to the waiter who said that the seafood crepes are the ones to order and that they often do it as a special 4 x a year. The chef changes the seafood recipe regularly. We had the seafood crepe; had a light cream/buttery taste to it and was amazing. Really fresh seafood and all round tasty. Definitely order the seafood crepe. We also had the chocolate mousse - 75% Belgian chocolate, really tasty
Amazing authentic real French bistro style food. Attentive and knowledgeable staff and the best duck and rillettes I’ve ever eaten. Not to mention the bisque sauce with the prawns and the desserts!
A real find
My gal and I had a fab and memorable dinner at this lovely little resto on the peninsula. The steak was wonderful - the oysters we beautiful. This is serious food without the pretension. Staff were lovely
Came here tonight for dinner and wow it was amazing food! My partner and I had mussels to start which was in a delicious garlic sauce and were to die for! My partner had the lamb shoulder and I had the steak- both were incredible meals with loads of flavour! The meals are cooked with such effort and care- you can really tell by the flavours of the dish. Service was outstanding with lovely staff including the chef! Beautiful little cafe/ restaurant- love the decor. We will be back as who doesn’t love French food!

This is an update of my earlier review of this wonderful French-themed cafe. When I wrote my earlier review, Sacre Bleu was exclusively breakfast and lunch. Very occasionally they would offer dinner on special themed nights, such as Bastille Day. We attended one of those dinners, and I came away hoping that they would open regularly for dinner. Well, my wish has been granted. Sacre Bleu now opens regularly for dinner and offers the sort of honest, unpretentious, hearty, classic French food that is becoming a rarity in these days of fusion cuisine.
Sacre Bleu is a family affair. Alain runs the kitchen; wife, Ann Marie, and son, Jean Luc, look after the customers. They are a great team, and provide a friendly, welcoming, yet casual dining experience. Having dinner at Sacre Bleu is a bit like eating dinner in someone's home, except that very few homes would be able to produce food of this quality. Alain and Ann Marie appear to have modelled their dinners on the classic plat de jour bistros of Alain's native France. The menu isn't huge and changes constantly, depending on the quality of produce that can be sourced. When we dined there last, there were five main course options, including a vego dish. There's a few entrees and three desserts were on offer, including their signature crepe suzette.
Everything we ate at our recent dinner was excellent. Alain makes his own terrine, and it is superb, as was the raclette on potatoes. But the highlight for me was the barramundi and prawns on spinach served with a lobster cream sauce. Oh, man, that sauce. Fortunately, generous serves of excellent bread are available to enjoy those wonderful sauces. There is an interesting small wine list of carefully chosen reds and whites, featuring some French drops, including an excellent riesling from the Alsace region. Serves here are hearty. Don't expect nouvelle cuisine; this is old-fashioned quality home cooking.
Alain is a real chef; he loves French food, and celebrating the flavours and techniques of French cooking. And he does it so well. He, Ann Marie and Jean Luc make a great team. A dinner here is as good as anything you'll get in the Big Smoke; so, as Molly says, "Do yourself a favour..."
Great customer service and great food specially the Morrocan lamb. Definitely will recommend this cafe. Very family friendly and great location just opposite the beach.
Lovely little cafe along the main road, just opposite the amusement rides. Visited quite late in the afternoon so only had the coffee. Coffee was very good. The shop had a business for sale sign. Hopefully, a new owner is found.
I ate the tuna steak salad for lunch time and the steak was cooked beautiful and rare, the salad was dressed well and full of flavour. One friend ate the crepe with salmon and she loved it. Another friend had eggs benedict and found it incredible. Good coffee also.
Great little French Cafe in Rye! Amazing Crepes made so well and tasty! Size and flavours were so perfect! The use of buckwheat in the pancake made it light! Coffee was also good for Rye!
Beef bourguignon pie is really great! The beef bourguignon is really tasty and hearty, the pastry can be more buttery. Seafood chowder is very nice too. Not as creamy and is jam packed with lots of ingredients.
Visited here today during a holiday in Mornington. We ordered a coffee and a chai latte which were both very nice. We also had the nutella crepe which was yum. There was a bit of a mix up with our order but the service was excellent and the waiter was apologetic and gave us some lovely biscotti.
I would recommend this cute little cafe and come back again.
2nd time I have been , the crêpes a really nice, poached chicken salad , so fresh, the food is lovely over all , great little cafe to go to in Rye.
Went again on the week end ,had the Burger it is not your normal burger more like sliced meat not mince to meat, meat was very tough on the burger was quite tasteless, I had to bring me rating Dow to 4 , my wife had the potato and pork quiche was very salty.
What a gem! I visited Sacrebleu Cafe for the second time yesterday morning. I was very pleased to see the Tartine Ratatouille was still on the special board, I couldn't resist trying the dish again. To my delight the dish was even better than what I remembered. The poached eggs and the roast vegetables were all cooked perfectly, and the flavours all evenly balanced. Even the toast had just the right amount of butter on it. My breakfast partner had the Le Benedict and could not fault a thing. My espresso was also very nice. I recommend a visit and I will be returning myself.
Crepes, Yum! Poached eggs yum, ice chocolate yum, ice coffee, strong and yum.
Staff very friendly and quick. General theme, JUST YUM. So go and enjoy this little cafe, its worth a drive to the beach for.

I don't normally put thoughts of breakfast and French cuisine together, but this place has changed my mind.
EVERYTHING about this place rocks:
- service: fantastic and friendly. Made a mistake with the coffee, immediately apologised and said we could keep the one we got by mistake. How restaurants handle mistakes is everything.
- drinks: iced coffees and iced chocolates are a decadent must-try, with the double-shot of coffee in such a large iced coffee drink giving it that decent coffee hit despite the size and creaminess.
- food: OMG. Berry crepes executed brilliantly. You know how sometimes places skimp on the amount of berry? Not this place. Amazing texture, acidity and sweetness balance throughout, giving this a real wow-factor. Take the edge off the acidity/sweetness punch if you wish, with plenty of cream added on the side of the dish.
- food part 2: special - poached eggs on a ratatouille. The rich ratatouille worked really well with the little bits of feta and the runny poached eggs. I've never had poached eggs with these flavours before (despite similar ingredients) and if they have this special again, I'd definitely go back for it.
Overall: fantastic service and great, punchy flavours makes this place 5/5 without a doubt in my mind.
This is a really cute café almost opposite the pier, so very nice sit at the big open window and look out. My lunch was delicious - good, wholesome food, freshly cooked, with that French flair. If it weren't so far from home I would definitely be a regular there.
Just had breakfast there as it was next to our Airbnb . Both my partner and I had the eggs benedict . Service was really friendly, coffee came 5 minutes after ordering, food after 10. Breakfast was delightful. Buns were soft, Herbed hollandaise was creamy and tasty, eggs were poached the right way. If we are ever in Rye, we'll have brekkie there again
One of our regular cafes. Consistently good coffee. Breakfasts we had of calamari and lamb were very good. Friendly staff. Highly recommend it.
Thank you Sacrebleu for a wonderful lunch two weeks in a row. Your savoury crepes are an absolute delight! My new favourite place in Mornington Peninsula.
Accidentally found this place last week and drove from Melbourne this weekend just to have a crepe again. Hidden treasure indeed, you must try the savoury crepes and the coffee
Fantastic French style cafe. Amazing French breakfast, croque monsieur and also daily lunch specials. Must try! Owners are very friendly and accommodating.
