Le Vintage

Avignon


Deep in the medieval quarter, this welcoming bistro is a fun place to dine. Zinc tables, well-worn furniture and a busy, noisy kitchen out back conjure up the air of a village bistro, something backed up by the trad French dishes. It's also one of the few places in town open daily – and the local wine selection is super.
