The Best Restaurant in Avignon and the Vaucluse, Provence

If you want a truly regional experience, take a seat on the shaded terrace of Restaurant Philip (circa 1926), enjoy the water views, and dig in to some cuisses de grenouille (frog's legs) or trout fished straight from the Sorgue River. Set apart from the other eateries, it's just before the trail to the spring. A three-course menu goes for only €37, and there's a decent regional wine list. Sandwiches, salads, and ice cream can be ordered next door at Bar Glacier.
