La Charrette Bleue

About

La Charrette Bleue invites diners to experience the heart of Provence in a setting that blends rustic charm with contemporary flair. Nestled in the historic village of La Bonté on the D94, the restaurant sits in a converted stone relais de poste that dates back to the 18th century, complete with exposed wooden beams and a sweeping terrace overlooking the rolling hills of the Baronnies. The menu, curated by chef‑owner Paul Roussel, showcases a creative take on regional cuisine that celebrates seasonal produce and local specialties such as airy peas, lamb, and fresh fish. From a vibrant salad menu to indulgent dishes like grilled veal or sea bass with Burgundy wine, every plate is crafted with a love for colour, flavour and authenticity. Guests can enjoy lunch or dinner in the warm, convivial dining room, or step out onto the tiled terrace to savour the light and scent of lavender‑laden garrigue while watching the sunset over the orchards. Whether you’re after a romantic dinner for two, a family outing, or a relaxed meal after a day of exploring the thin valleys and vineyards of the Auvergne—Rhône‑Alpes, La Charrette Bleue offers a welcoming atmosphere, skilled cuisine and a memorable Provençal experience.
