How a New Generation of Locavores Is Championing France’s Luberon Valley

"After reaching Le Bistrot de Lagarde, Lorenzo Ferro and Pénélope Verheyen's hilltop seasonal kitchen, you're rewarded with all manner of treats, like produce from France and Ferro's native Liguria, Italy; cheese from La Fromagerie d'Albion, up the road; and cochon from six miles away. Ferro and Verheyen, who comes from nearby Apt, found the space, a restaurant in a former life, early in the pandemic and reopened it last summer."

A fantastic zen-like lunch experience in the heart of the wild nature at 1100m altitude at the Plateau Albion. A well composed and delicious 3 course menu at 50€ accompanied by regional wines. I had the tomatoes&smoked salmon, the pork and the roasted peaches for deserts - all great. The pre and post snacks were also very good. Gentle and efficient service. Definitely worth the climb. D

High up in the hills above Apt, this restaurant is a culinary utopia. Our menu was made up of 3 Starters then a choice between 2 main course and then cheese or 2 desserts. Each dish was a delicious work of art. The staff were friendly and entertaining whilst the venue is cosy and beautifully decorated. The day we went had dreadful weather which made the restaurant all the more cosy. Reasonably priced with a Michelin star, I highly recommend a visit to Le Bistrot de Lagarde.

A restaurant worth a detour! The new young owners welcomed me and my wife with a stunning EUR 50 menu. Great amuse bouche and the special nut-mascarpone stuffed leaks are to die for. Very pretty inside and outside. Inventive yet firmly rooted in the local cuisine with a hint of Liguria. Thank you!

I've eaten here several times over the last few years, and I don't usually write reviews, but the food last week was truly exceptional. I get the feeling that Lorenzo just gets better and better, always an intriguing mix of amuse bouche, and a menu full of originality. Can't wait to visit again!

Spectacular location…and surprising to find such as great restaurant in a seemingly isolated spot. That takes some courage! The food is seasonal and changes by the month; ours was early October and, for my personal taste, I thought some dishes were not yet fully resolved and am sure this occurs over the month. That does not take away from some great courses served with charm and style. Highly recommended and we will try to return

We've been here twice now - both times the food, wine, and service were excellent. Plus the setting is beautiful. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful meal here last night, my first time to Le Bistrot where it's under a new chef and team, and my goodness the food was just excellent. Also very reasonably priced, the wines too, with delightful and attentive front of house service. Well worth visiting and I'll certainly be back soon.
