Guernsey adds two Michelin spots
- Hook and Le Nautique were newly added to the MICHELIN Guide, raising Guernsey's count to five listed restaurants. - They join Fukku, Alba and Vraic as the island group's recognized dining spots. - The Guide continues expanding into smaller markets, highlighting regional dining growth outside major metropolitan centers (bailiwickexpress.com).
Guernsey has added Hook and Le Nautique to the Michelin Guide, giving the island group five listed restaurants in the guide’s current U.K. selection. (guide.michelin.com, bailiwickexpress.com) Michelin’s Guernsey page now shows four restaurants in the island-wide listing: Vraic, Alba, Hook and Fukku. Le Nautique appears separately on Michelin’s St Peter Port page and on its own restaurant entry, both marked “New.” (guide.michelin.com, guide.michelin.com) Hook is in St Peter Port on North Plantation and is listed by Michelin under “Meats and Grills.” Le Nautique, also in St Peter Port on Quay Steps, is listed under “Seafood.” (guide.michelin.com, guide.michelin.com) The other three recognized Guernsey restaurants cover different tiers of the guide. Vraic in Vale holds one Michelin star, Alba in St Peter Port has a Bib Gourmand, and Fukku in St Peter Port is a Michelin-selected restaurant. (guide.michelin.com, guide.michelin.com, guide.michelin.com) That gives Guernsey a broader Michelin footprint than it had at the start of 2025, when local reporting said Fukku had become the island’s third location in the guide alongside Vraic and Alba. By April 20, 2026, Bailiwick Express reported that Hook and Le Nautique had taken the total to five. (bailiwickexpress.com, bailiwickexpress.com) Michelin’s own 2025 Great Britain and Ireland release pointed to a guide with 1,147 restaurants, including 220 starred ones, spread well beyond London and other large cities. Guernsey’s additions fit that pattern of inspectors widening coverage across smaller destinations in the British and Irish market. (michelin.com) Guernsey had already been edging back onto Michelin’s map before this latest update. Local reporting last year said Vraic’s star was the island’s first Michelin star since Christophe at the Fermain Valley Hotel closed in 2009. (bailiwickexpress.com) For diners, the change is simple: Michelin now points visitors to five Guernsey restaurants across seafood, Japanese contemporary, modern cooking, grilled dishes and one starred destination on the coast.
