France is known for its good food and Provence for it’s outdoor dining and on both these fronts Puyloubier will not disappoint. Although only a village of 2000 people Puyoubier has several options for dinning out. Here’s our take on those options.
La Place, Puyloubier
The unofficial / official café and restaurant of the village of Puyloubier, La Place can be found in the central square of the village. With a traditional menu with Mediterranean accents the food is good for a local restaurant and much of the ingredients are sourced locally.
The highlight of this restaurant is the setting – you can’t get much more authentic than the sqaure in the middle of the village under the Plantain trees. The restaurant is open for lunch on Monday and Tuesday, close Wednesday and then open for lunch and dinner Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
It’s a important to make a reservation as the restaurant and the bar are often full of locals on the weekends. Family atmosphere reasonably priced.
Les Serments, Rue Qui Monte, Puyloubier
For those looking for something a little more haute cuisine, there is “les Serments” 1 minute walk from the center of town. Known regionally for it’s quality, Les Serments is run by Chef Jean Sebastien Gentil a well renowned chef.
The setting is idealic with a dreamy garden space on one side and a traditional inside dinning area for those cooler evenings. The menu is unique and exciting and changes according to availability of ingredients. There is not kids menu, and so we generally don’t recommend taking the whole family.
Les Serments is a little more expensive but is well worth the cost. You will have a taste experience that you’ll remember for a long time. Open for lunch and dinner Wednesday through to Sunday, reservations recommended.

3 minutes drive from Puyloubier along the road that traverses the base of the Sainte Victoire you will find the Relais de Saint Ser. One part hotel and one part restaurant, the Relais de Saint Ser can not be beaten for it’s views over the valley. This restaurant is a favourite for sunset “apero”.
