Les meilleurs restaurants en Avignon

26/06/2026: First visit since the change of ownership. A "hello" wasn't exactly customary at Françoise's, as everyone knew. It's a shame the two new young owners haven't brought this magic word back into fashion. Even when you arrive with your hands full. Is this a cursed place for saying hello with a smile? Otherwise, two of the three waitresses are smiling and friendly. Given the choice between two places serving coffee for €1.50, which do you think you'd go to? With or without a smile?

20/04/2026: By far my favorite café in Avignon! A very warm atmosphere, ideal for getting some work done, with delicious pastries of course ;) Update 4 years later: A landmark is closing… we'll miss you.

26/06/2026: I was with a tour group. Rooms are small by USA standards but they are immaculate,everything works.Air conditioning was adequate and it was 95 degrees outside.

15/06/2026: Great hotel in a converted convent, in old town and a short stroll from the Palace of Popes. The pool needs attention, but it's pretty remarkable to have one at all in a property like this, especially with how hot Avignon can get in summer. Dinner at the restaurant was better than passable, and fresh orange juice for breakfast. Ask for a room in the historic rather than the new building.

13/05/2026: We had a very good filled baguette and two cookies there. Very tasty and fresh!

13/05/2026: Meal between two visits. 10-minute wait. Two ham and Emmental cheese sandwiches (very crispy bread and fillings provided) + one very good custard tart with shortcrust pastry and one red fruit crumble. We ate very well. I recommend it.

22/03/2026: Purchased today, we expected better from the speculoos caramel cheesecake offered by Maison Violette. It was rather bland overall, too sweet, and lacked balance.

08/02/2026: Superb fougasse, a real treat. I know where to find them now.

04/08/2026: We went to Flunch as a family to eat. The three of us ordered a hot meal, and the fourth person, not being very hungry, only ordered a starter and dessert. He couldn't sit down with the other three because he didn't order a hot meal. The rules state that you can only be seated if you order a hot meal. So, if you're not very hungry, you're forced to order something if you just want a light meal with your family. It's absurd. NEVER again Flunch. I'm boycotting it!

03/08/2026: Ordered 5 ice creams, took over 20 minutes to receive the entire order. As a result, I had to eat them separately. Very bad experience.

23/06/2026: Extremely slow service, order error. No peach, orgeat, Ricard, or 51. Disgusting toilets! Avoid at all costs.

16/06/2026: €4 for a 25cl Coke, I didn't know the delivery went through the Strait of Hormuz.

16/01/2026: A very bad experience. I ordered eight spring rolls and a portion of noodles via Uber Eats on Tuesday the 13th. The result: food poisoning a few hours later. I find this completely unacceptable. When you order food, you expect at least something edible without getting sick. This seriously calls into question the hygiene and quality of the products. A very disappointing experience. I will not recommend this establishment.

06/01/2026: Excellent Asian restaurant. Complete meals for €12, superb spring rolls always served with salad leaves, mint, and sauces. The owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming. ❤

27/06/2026: The waiter/owner was extremely unpleasant. A liar. I came in to ask if someone would be kind enough to give me a paper cup to give water to a thirsty cat in the park (I remind you that it's a heatwave and the cat wasn't well). It was a simple request, made with a little humanity. All this only for the owner/waiter to tell me he didn't have a paper cup to give me. I find this absurd, considering I could see the counter and clearly the stack of paper cups piled up right in front of me. I was quite shocked by the way he spoke to me; it was almost rude. You should know that when I came in, I politely waited for him to finish what he was doing before asking so he wouldn't be disturbed. All this just so he wouldn't respect me. When he came out, he told me there was a water fountain and that it was more than enough, and I explained to him that the cat couldn't press a button located about twice its height. Okay, I can understand that the person didn't want to help me; maybe there was a lack of compassion, I don't know. But the interaction didn't warrant being disrespected. And if it were your pet dying of thirst, or even a person, would you have reacted the same way? Would you have spoken with the same disrespect you showed me? Your customers are nicer than you because when you left, they checked their bags to see if they had a small container for that poor cat. I think a simple cardboard cup wouldn't have destroyed your stock… After your refusal, I went further by explaining the same situation to everyone. I was received kindly and they were able to give me a container for this poor cat.

25/06/2026: Slightly off the main tourist streets, typical old-style French bar, which is a complement. The friendliest service we had out of 6 bars/restaurants over 2 days. We just wanted something simple for lunch, an omelette/salade, not on menu, no problem, delicious. Chilled local white wine, perfect. Obviously a “locals” bar too, sat chatting with owner, chewing the fat, exchanging opinions, letting the day go by. If you’re looking for France, you’ll find it here.

04/08/2026: Very disappointing. Nothing like the pizzas they were making just a few months ago. The tomato sauce was industrial. The toppings were incredibly sparse. Overall, tasteless... I used to be a regular customer; now I'll be a regular customer elsewhere.

21/07/2026: Poorly presented dishes Bland food, bread soaking in the dish. It only serves to fill the plate and hide the empty space! Pizza with few toppings In short, expensive for what's on the plate. Only the staff saves this restaurant!

23/06/2026: Nice place in Mureaux to have a drink or a meal.

15/05/2026: - A warm welcome from the owner, Youssef Ben Zahra, and his team. - Ahmed, a dedicated and attentive chef. This is my go-to spot; I love it. Corine Forest and I, Natacha Régnier, have been exhibiting our paintings here since early May 2026. Come and see them!

07/08/2026: The owner refused to fill our water bottles in the middle of a heatwave, claiming it wouldn't bring him any money. Nothing more to add.

26/07/2026: It’s a nice local place for friends to hang out. Very low key.

23/06/2026: Great place to share a meal with friends. Lots of choices at a reasonable price, everyone can choose according to their preferences.

17/06/2026: Avoid at all costs if you value your colon! Food: Bad, cold food; I got food poisoning the next day. Service: I was watched from beginning to end, especially the waitress who felt up our napkins to make sure we hadn't hidden anything in them... Atmosphere: Deafening and hot; I felt unwell from the moment I arrived. In short, I wouldn't complain for 10 euros, but when I can eat in a decent bistro for the same price...

01/11/2025: Extremely slow service, 1 hour 30 minutes for a pizza and two scoops of ice cream. More than 20 minutes wait between the clearing of the main course and receiving the dessert menu.

25/07/2025: Arriving at the end of service, we received a very warm welcome. We enjoyed delicious pizzas and salads at a leisurely pace. The service was pleasant and friendly. The prices were reasonable, and the food was high quality. Kudos to the young man who looked after our table! We'll be back! 😃

16/11/2025: The opening hours on the website are not up to date; when ordering delivery to Avignon, the pizzeria is closed. However, the website indicates that the pizzeria is open.

11/11/2025: A pizzeria I'm going to miss a lot; it was a constant companion during many evenings spent studying, then during training, and later during the first years of my professional career. That evening I thought, "Hey, I think I'll order a pizza from them, it's been a while!" and I discovered that the place is apparently closed. I hope everything is alright for the staff, and thank you again for all those evenings when I couldn't be bothered to cook! :)
