This is the cafe in all the pictures of L'Isle sur la Sorgue. It stands in the shade of two fabulous big plane trees right across from the Church in the Main Square. It is a great spot to sit and have a coffee or a drink and people watch. By day it is a cafe and serves breakfast and lunch, whilst by night it becomes a very popular bar.
Favorite Dish: I ate here a couple of times and both times had the Croque Monsier which was superb. I guess it could be said that Croque Monsieur is something that can't be botched, but I would disagree. I've had some very good ones and some very ordinary ones indeed. The Croque at Cafe de France is exceptional and comes with a lovey salad garnish on a wooden tray. The coffee I had was very good as well and the prices were no cheaper or dearer than what I would expect from such a lovely old establishment.
All in all I would return if ever I was lucky enough to go back to L'Isle.

We were immediately attracted by this sidewalk café. It had just a few tables on the street with colorful napkins and an old olive tree in the front.
Favorite Dish: We had lunch here. My husband had a salade chèvre chaud (warm goat cheese) and I had a salade auvergnate with cantal and jambon cru. Delicious! With two glasses of wine and a bottle of water our total bill was 30 euro.

Café restaurant de la Sorgues stands along the promenade, on the other side of a canal.
We had a “joue de porc confite” (pork cheek), with delicious home-made chips. A bottle of red Côte du Ventoux was perfectly fit with the dinner. The desert was a “general”, a lemon ice cream sprinkled with pear spirit

“le Cours d’Eau” is a hotel, a restaurant and a bar. The menu of the restaurant was fine, with reasonable prices but we chose to try elsewhere. There had been two hours of heavy rain and we did not feel like dining on a terrace close to more water!

Marie told us to be sure to come here on a Sunday for the town’s market day. Oh my god, the whole town was a giant street market.
