We were meeting friends in Avignon, and needed a lunch place. Someone looked on TripAdvisor and came up with Le Simple Simon. Now it will seem weird to eat at an English place in the heart of French Avignon, but it was said that the desserts were delicious, and it wasn't too far a walk from the Palace of the... More

Perfect in every way. The only downside, it's pricey. Beautiful English tea room done with French panache. The Whitby Salad blew my mind (especially the salmon pate), the dessert induced a food coma (crumble served with cream and custard, just as good as my mum's). Superb place for lunch. Be warned, go steady on breakfast, it's not light.

A little off the beaten track but well worth looking for. It was packed when we visited - always a good sign - and for good reason! I can't comment on the main meals but the cakes we had were lovely. I shared a warm chocolate cake and slice of lemon meringue pie with two friends; the portions were huge... More

This is a lovely spot to have tea or coffee. It has a very British feeling and serves the best sticky toffee pudding I have had - simply scrumptious. We didn't have lunch, only coffee and treats and would put this on the list to return to if we go back to Avignon.

At the suggestion of our wine tour guide JB we went to Simple Simon for lunch. Step off the busy Avignon street and you are transported into a quaint English countryside cottage. Exposed stone walls, heavy wood beamed ceiling with a Union Jack and a picture of the queen on the wall. But what is most impressive is the large... More
