On your way to the ruins at the top are signs to this delightful restaurant run by Georges et Christiane. Their collaboration is brilliant- tasty, well-presented Provençal food with lots of extras. They accommodated my husband's gluten allergy, in my broken French. Lunch was reasonable @ $17 € pp plus wine & coffee. I have included photos. They started with a mash pea amousé-bouche then a choice of 3 plats. My hubby had beef skewers and I had the tournade de cochon (pork). We ended with a lemon tarte for me and a fromage-fruits simple but delicious dessert for my hubby. The surprise- an aperitif of rose water with a poppy-honey glacé. All locally sourced and farm to table. George's presented me with a rose. Coffee came with some petit-fours featuring pistachio, almond a handmade marshmallow and un petite beignets (jam donut). I highly recommend a stop in this town and make sure to dine inside or on the patio.

A new coffee house and restaurant open all day non-stop for brunch and lunch.. Situated in one of the most beautiful, hilltop villages in the Luberon is a new concept restaurant & coffee house by famous Chef Andrew Goldsby - owner of the former Michelin recommended gastronomic restaurant 'La Petite Cave' which he closed this season to search for a more balanced lifestyle and return to basics in his cuisine. His new 'Le Petit Café', only 40 meters up the road from his former restaurant is a refreshing new option for brunch or lunch in the Luberon. His dishes are inspired by market fare as well as what's growing in the village garden - tended to by the local shepherd. Sounds quaint which it is, but the plates are also sophisticated while being simple and sans pretension. Certainly not a tourist trap... Finally a place to have lunch outside the classic French lunch hour ! At the uncommon hour of 3 pm I enjoyed a Mediterranean wrap full of goodies - locally made tapenade, grilled peppers, feta cheese served with the most delicious home-made French fries. Beautiful tapas was enjoyed by the couple next to us. Lunch was only 14 € with a coca cola in a glass bottle...a bargain for such tasty food. Colorful, Van Goghisque art work for sale on the wall by a local artist caught my eye as well as prints by a photographer who has captured dramatic images from Saignon and the surrounding countryside. There's much more going on in this unspoilt village than meets the eye... The affordable menu is presented on ardoise black boards and food preparation in the open kitchen can be admired from the counter or dining area. A restaurant respecting the creation of artisanal food creation and the beauty of this unique region! May they get the attention and credit they deserve...

The plaza it sits in also hosts a fountain, large shade trees, and a beautiful old church. The outdoor seating is idyllic, and the food excellent. It's nice to get a change from french cuisine, and middle-eastern is so appropriate to the climate and setting. I ordered kebab and it came Lebanese style, with shaved shards of lightly charred meat in a dish, served with a side of rice with fine noodle garnish, pita, and numerous dishes of veggie sides including probably the smoothest, creamiest humus I've ever had. There was also baba ganouj, a ratatouille-like cold stew, some kind of courgette/tahini dish, and tabouli that was delightfully heavy on the fresh tomatoes, garlic and parsley rather than couscous. But the star of the show is something I didn't recognize, but will actively seek out from now on: a fine-chopped red pepper and walnut paste that was just to die for! Read the hidden reviews, too--they seem entirely reliable and accurate to me.
