I am not sure I have EVER been treated so appallingly because of my nationality this restaurant dares to cross the line. A friend and I had cycled up Mont Ventoux from Bedouin and descended down the other side looking for cold beer and delicious fare so as we approached this lovely looking restaurant as the base of Mont Ventoux with shady trees we pulled and problems started from the off. We were the only guests not offered a menu all the other French guests were left with lovely looking menus, secondly we noticed we were the only guests who didn’t have paper place mats over a table cloth we were shown to a table without any of those fineries, thirdly we were given PLASTIC knives and forks w...
We (3 friends asked for a table to drink and eat something during our motorbike trip, and the woman in charge sat us dowm. A young blonde guy came to ask our order and we ordered three beers, one pizza (11€ and one salad (16€ to share as we wanted to avoid over eating as we prefer to eat light during midday while travelling. The waiter came back and told us in french (we only speak english and spanish that we needed to order three courses in order to be aerved as we were three persons. We explained oyr reasons but the restaurat managers did not agree. So we had to leave without being served. One restaurant is free to fix the price they prefer but cannot force you to order more than what you...
Only came for coffee and ice cream. Although this is located on the main road to Ventoux, being on a sharp bend, traffic was calm. The restaurant has plenty of outside seating and the setting is very pleasant, with a natural spring across the road. There were two waiters covering the 20 or so occupied tables, and they were literally run off their feet (they were often running). Our waiter delivered us crepes before realising that it was for the next table no harm done, and the waiter apologised with a smile. Aside from tis, service was very good. Ice cream was ok, pre made carte d'or, and the coffee was ok, but nothing special.
Was craving for mussels and saw that this place serves mussels with fries, of course I can't give up a chance to try! Mussels was ok, I would prefer to add some more white wine though. Some of my family member ordered pizzas. I took a bite and it tasted quite good, my husband almost regretted that he did not order pizza instead. Lol! Just opposite the restaurant, there's a pond and natural waterfall, perfect for our after lunch walk. You can even bring along a large bottle to collect some mountain spring from the waterfall (that's what the locals do). Overall a very pleasant experience.
