St Tropez, like most of the towns by the river, offers a fantastic dining experience, though at a significantly higher price.
Here you will find the size of the city, very many restaurants, most of the top class. We would like to thoroughly enjoy visiting one of the city’s fine Michelin restaurants. such as L’olivier, Dolce Vita and Le Belrose. It serves exclusive food and beverage in world class. You can get lots of delicious taste experiences with dishes like Ratatouille, Crepez and Beef Lyonnaise from French cuisine but also lots of dishes from the rest of the world.

In these places it is common to fill up quickly with people in the evening when live performances take place and people arrive to have a simple drink before the nightlife starts.

For many people, the city of St Tropez is itself an attraction and many visit the city just over the day to experience the feeling of St Tropez.
