The story
La Petite Plage sits front-row on the quai Jean-Jaurès, its bohemian décor evoking a tropical escape. Natural materials mingle with fresh beige, pink and orange tones, capturing the effortless elegance of Saint-Tropez. The restaurant describes itself as “une escapade élégante” – a place where sharing and conviviality reign.
The kitchen is led by Chef Eric Frechon, a Meilleur Ouvrier de France and Michelin-starred chef. His “cuisine d’été” celebrates the season: bright, modern Mediterranean fare built on beautiful produce. The menu changes with the market, highlighting local ingredients and sunny influences that embody the spirit of the French Riviera. The result is a joyful, contemporary take on Mediterranean cuisine, light and generous. This approach recently earned La Petite Plage a Michelin recommendation for 2026.
As afternoon fades, the bar takes over with refreshing cocktails, prestigious wines, and champagne. Live jazz and DJs set a warm, unhurried rhythm – from lazy mornings to evenings that stretch under the stars. La Petite Plage is as much about atmosphere as it is about food: a place to linger, share a drink, and feel the pulse of the port. Private parties are also welcome, making it a versatile spot for both intimate lunches and celebratory dinners.
