A suspended moment
A hidden treasure in the heart of the ramparts
Push open the door at 7 rue des Petits Degrés and you step into a truly unusual piece of Saint-Malo history: a journey through time and space in the heart of the Corsair City.
First a salad bar, then a Cajun restaurant shaped by Bob and Babeth's travels, L'Art Caddy became an American-style pie shop. Everything is homemade, generous and indulgent — from comforting savory pies to deliciously nostalgic desserts, with a retro soundtrack (blues, rockabilly, country).

From Saint-Malo to Louisiana
It all began in 1988: Bob and Babeth, regulars at a small salad bar, fell in love with the place and took it over. A trip to Bob's aunt in the United States changed everything.
