The best bars and cafés Luberon

This café is the original heart of the village. Don't hesitate to go through its austere facade, behind which you can see the small terrace that opens onto the valley. In the room, the regulars and, in season, many tourists: the seats are very popular and few. The terrace is small, but it offers a fantastic view that will leave you with a radiant memory of the Luberon and its conviviality. To have a drink, take a break and chat with the locals, this place is perfect!

The bar is neat and a little rocky at the same time. The judicious arrangement of great vintages as well as more modest ones, which tourists and connoisseurs should not hesitate to frequent. And beware: the house "does not shy away from any sacrifice": it combines the functions of cellar, wine bar with a possible snack menu, introductory workshops in oenology and sommelier advice, weddings and other festivities... To follow, their Facebook page which is very active. It is also a place known to be the meeting place for singles.

We like to settle here in any season. The terrace overlooks the fountain, we sit there with pleasure. We stop for a coffee, a tea with a pastry, to sip a lemonade, a fruit juice, a glass of local wine or a pastis, and to nibble some Corsican specialities (cooked pork meats, figatelli...). We let ourselves go to remake the world under the soft Provencal sun. The cuisine is simple, the menu varied, the plates colorful, copious. The personnel is with the small care. Here, it smells like vacations all year long.

The junk shop spirit isn't really there anymore... It's the rugby spirit that has replaced it, or rather that of the RCT - Club de Toulon for the uninitiated. The very sunny terrace attracts a good number of onlookers who come to read a newspaper, have a drink, stroll around large wrought iron tables. Many of the regulars have made it their favourite spot and on some days it is a bit difficult to find a place to drink a coffee. Traditional cuisine with fresh and seasonal products, but also foot packets or sauerkraut depending on the season.

At the plantation, you'll find a wide range of coffees - around twenty in all - that Jean-Denis roasts every week: grands crus, from Brazil, Papua, Kilimanjaro, Ethiopia and Peru, both organic and fair trade; sold as beans, ground coffee, special blends (full-bodied, fruity, sweet) and an Italian blend for connoisseurs. Jean-Denis will advise you on your choice. You can sit on the terrace or inside for a coffee, of course, or a milkshake, bubble tea, homemade pastry or artisanal ice cream.
