LE SAFRANIER
For lunch and dinner
Le Safranier is located in the heart of the city but in a quiet place, with a pretty terrace in the shade of the trees.
Mediterranean cuisine with fresh, seasonal produce from the market. Reduced menu because everything is prepared “à la minute”.
The food is very creative, with a definite local Provence flavour. No particular recommendation because the menu changes according to the market but there are always the famous zucchini flowers of Provence !

LE COMPTOIR DE LA TOURRAQUE
For dinner
In summer, Le Comptoir de la Tourraque sets up on the edge of a washhouse, behind the restaurant. Home cooking, with fresh and seasonal products cooked by chef Nicolas.
The plates are beautiful and plentiful!
Personally, I enjoyed the minced octopus as a starter and the crispy half-cooked tuna as a main course.
Formula starter + dish + dessert at 44 euros! Rare for this quality !
