The Breton Club ( French: club breton ) was founded on April 30, 1789. Its traditional meeting place was the Café Amaury at 36 avenue de St. Cloud in Versailles .

The Brittany was independent of the Estates General own regional parliament, and so decided the deputies who have more experience in parliamentary possessed other, either before each meeting of the Estates General. The representatives of the third estate and the lower clergy were ready for this and therefore met in the rooms of Café Amaury.

In August 1789 the club split over the question of the king's veto right and never met again.

After a conversation in October 1789 between Sieyès and Claude-Christophe Gourdan , in which it was a matter of reactivating the club, Sieyès said that a new foundation would make sense, but with not all members as before. Gourdan took up the suggestion and in December 1789 founded the club as the Friends of the Constitution in the library of the former Parisian Jacobin monastery .
