Restaurants & Bars
in Cotignac
The hotel estate’s plethora of restaurants and bars entice its patrons into the Provençal art of living that defines the true nature of Cotignac. At the Jardin Secret restaurant, chef Benoit Witz creates intuitive cuisine, inspired by the richness of the Provençal region. At Le Bistrot, chef Yvan Franceschi infuses local gastronomy with exotic flavours with a seasonal menu. Then, La TUF is the bar where life truly pulsates: patrons meet for a friendly drink after work, or gather later in the evening for a live concert. From O’Fadoli’s terraces, watch life on Cours Gambetta drift by over coffee, a house cocktail or a good bottle of wine.
