The partner's word
The Carré du Palais occupies an 18th-century building in the heart of Avignon, formerly the Hôtel Calvet de la Palun and then the Bank of France. This historic setting, remarkable for its Counter-Reformation architecture, establishes a strong heritage identity. The venue combines a bistro, a wine bar, a terrace overlooking the Place du Palais des Papes, an exceptional wine cellar with a tasting room, and a dedicated wine school.
The bistro offers gourmet dishes designed to pair with AOC wines from the Côtes du Rhône and the Rhône Valley. Each month, the head sommelier selects wines around which the chef creates a fresh, seasonal menu highlighting local products and regional suppliers. The ingredients include pork from Étable Montilienne, trout from L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, charcuterie from Deurrieu, truffles from the Jaumard brothers, and spices from Toqués d'Épices. The chef's experience in Michelin-starred kitchens influences a refined yet accessible culinary approach.
Beyond dining, the venue hosts groups and seminars with seated meals, cocktail receptions, and wine tastings organized in the former banking vault. Its cellar houses over 10,000 bottles from producers in the Rhône Valley, underscoring a commitment to wine discovery and regional culture. The atmosphere blends heritage architecture, wine-centered conviviality, and an elegant yet accessible bistro environment.
