Where to eat in Grasse

Five useful choices: vegan in town, a small bistronomic table, unfussy seafood, a panoramic terrace or the grand Provençal house.

MAMETAS SAYS

Grasse does not need a solemn gastronomic list. It needs options that fit the day you are actually having.

381 route de Plascassier

Lougolin

€€€ · seasonal cooking · panoramic terrace

Choose it for: inventive bistro cooking and the terrace facing the Estérel.

48 avenue Henri Dunant

La Bastide Saint-Antoine

€€€€ · gastronomic · bastide

Choose it for: the occasion meal in a grand Provençal house.

Jacques Chibois’s bastide above Grasse is a destination in its own right, with gastronomic cooking and a deep cellar.

But: this is the meal you organise the day around.
