‘La PresQu’île’, charming restaurant in Bédarrides

8-1

Last weekend, on our way to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, we decided to make a pitstop in a small village called Bédarrides, located equal distance (12km) from Avignon, Carpentras and Orange. This circular shaped town can be discovered via this gorgeous old bridge, built in 1647, crossing the river Ouvèze.

Nice discovery

On the banks of the Ouvèze, we were surprised by this enchanting paradise called La PresQu’île, lulled by the murmur of the river… A nice place to discover, especially on a sunny warm day when you can sit on the lovely terrace. Since it was lunchtime anyway, we decided to satisfy our appetites here 🙂

Welcome !

Party of 6 or 8 ? No problem

Menu or ‘à la carte’

Even though the Saturday lunch menu looked very ‘ok’, we decided to eat ‘à la carte’. Basically because in general a total menu is too much for us, especially for lunch. We prefer it for dinner.

Saturday lunch menu – 26€

Our choice

Had we known in advance the portions at ‘La PresQu’île’ were this large, we would have opted for a main platter only ! 🙂

Appetizer: Eggplant Caviar – 7€
Main dish: (BIG) Grilled Tuna steak – 18€
A scoop of refreshing lemon sorbet
Excellent coffee

We found the dishes correct but not surprising. However, it is the excellent location and the friendly staff that makes it the right place to enjoy a good meal sitting by the river, enjoying the summer sounds of the cigales 🙂

    Dat vinden wij ook altijd belangrijk. De sfeer en het personeel en de ligging laten iets altijd veel lekkerder smaken?
