The Best Lunch Spots in Saint-Tropez

Saint Tropez has become one of Europe's most famous summer destinations and long lunches are a huge part of the experience. Some spots are lively beach club scenes, others are quieter and more understated, but the best ones all have the same formula: great food, rosé, music and no reason to rush anywhere afterwards.

These are AHOY's top Saint Tropez lunch recommendations based on years of summers spent exploring the Riviera's best beach clubs and restaurants.

Best Lunch Spots on Pampelonne Beach

Shellona

Shellona has become one of Pampelonne's standout beach clubs thanks to its consistently good atmosphere, beachfront tables and strong music lineup throughout summer.

The Greek inspired menu works perfectly for long beach lunches and the energy gradually builds throughout the afternoon without feeling overly chaotic too early in the day.

Ideal for groups, celebrations and full beach club afternoons.

Gigi

Gigi brings a more polished and fashion focused atmosphere to Pampelonne Beach.

The design, crowd and overall experience feel slightly more elevated while still keeping the classic Saint Tropez beach club energy people come for. Expect excellent Italian food, long lunches and a very chic crowd throughout summer.

Loulou

Loulou has become one of Pampelonne Beach's biggest lunch scenes and is usually packed throughout peak summer.

The atmosphere is energetic from early afternoon onwards with loud music, big groups, flowing rosé and a very social crowd. It feels stylish and polished but definitely leans more lively than relaxed, especially later in the day.

The Mediterranean menu is consistently good and the beachfront setup makes it an easy place to settle into for the entire afternoon.

Perfect for groups wanting a classic Saint Tropez beach club day with music and atmosphere.

Best Restaurants In or Around Saint Tropez Town

If you are spending the morning shopping in town, here's where to stop for lunch:

Restaurant Les Graniers

Tucked beneath the Saint Tropez citadel, Restaurant Les Graniers feels much calmer than the beach clubs out on Pampelonne.

It's right by the water, has a more relaxed local atmosphere and works perfectly for lunch after shopping in town or spending the morning at the port.

Simple seafood and one of the prettiest waterfront lunch settings near town with a real locals feel.

Dior Café

The Dior Café has become one of Saint Tropez's most photographed lunch spots and perfectly captures the polished side of the Riviera.

Located in the centre of town, it's ideal for lighter lunches, coffee stops or a stylish break between shopping appointments.

Expect immaculate presentation, beautiful interiors and classic Saint Tropez people watching.
