Jardin Dolivet

Le Jardin Dolivet is an outdoor restaurant and bar nestled in a 1,200 square meter garden at the foot of Villa Dolivet, a traditional house built of flint in Gif-sur-Yvette. Located between the Abbaye and Belleville districts, and just a five-minute walk from the station, it offers a timeless retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The venue combines dining and an outdoor bar with cultural, leisure, and event activities, creating a unique hybrid space. Founded by a group of friends with deep roots in the local music scene, Le Jardin Dolivet is backed by nearly fifteen years of experience in record production and concerts. The team is also behind the collective Dernier Rang, the Villa Dolivet recording studio and label, as well as the band MARABOU. Their commitment to the community includes cultural initiatives and concerts organized with local authorities and educational institutions. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, evoking an elegant guinguette spirit in a shaded garden setting. Guests enjoy an outdoor bar and dining area infused with cultural and artistic energy. Chef Remi Le Du leads a menu focused on quality products sourced from local producers, offering a casual yet refined dining experience. Beyond food and drink, Le Jardin Dolivet hosts live concerts, art exhibitions, and outdoor screenings of major sporting events, making it a vibrant cultural hub.
