Pollen

Pollen presents itself as more than a restaurant: it is a living place where guests come together to share moments around gastronomy. The kitchen offers modern, seasonally driven cuisine that changes weekly to guarantee the best products of the moment, and the team selects ingredients meticulously from local producers to extract the best of nature and faithfully restitute essential flavours. The house is recognised with a Michelin star and the menu structure and sourcing underpin its identity in Avignon. Described as a "lieu de vie", Pollen provides a convivial, intimate dining space designed for sharing around gastronomy, with attentive, service-minded hospitality. The cuisine is modern and seasonally focused, evolving weekly and based on meticulously chosen local produce; the kitchen adapts preparations to dietary constraints and regimes. Mathieu Desmarest leads the kitchen as chef. Specialties include the Carte Blanche tasting menu and the Grand menu Carte Blanche, offered at several price points for lunch and dinner with wine-pairing options.
