Moulin de Lecq

Jersey


Housed inside an ancient water mill, this is Jersey's most characterful alehouse. The menu is above average, with Chancre crab salad and seafood linguine sitting alongside sticky ribs and burgers, but it's the homely atmosphere that makes all the difference. Mingle with locals, nurse your pint beside the massive stone fireplace, or admire the original water wheel behind the bar.
