Since 1891, Le Café des Arts has been one of those rare addresses that have stood the test of time without ever losing their soul. Facing Saint-Tropez's legendary Place des Lices, it embodies an art of living in the purest Provencal tradition.
The regulars gather there for a coffee in the sun, while the boules players set up a few steps away. The pace then slows to a gentle crawl until it's time for the aperitif, a veritable village institution. On the table are the must-haves of the South: black olive tapenade, anchoïade and crunchy vegetables. All accompanied by a glass of rosé or pastis, in a convivial atmosphere where faithful locals and visitors visitors.
As the sun declines, the atmosphere subtly changes. The lights dim, the candles light up, and the Café des Arts reveals a more intimate side. Dinner then becomes an experience in its own right, combining understated elegance with timeless charm.
A Café where you come as much for the atmosphere as for that rare feeling of belonging, for a few hours, to the singular spirit of Saint-Tropez.
