Since 1987, Luigi has been making delicious ice cream with great enthusiasm. He does this according to a method that has been passed down from generation to generation. That explains the quality of his ice cream! You'll find flavors that you have not been able to taste elsewhere. In Sainte-Maxime, this ice cream is really a household name. This is not only because of the delicious taste, but also because of the design. If you order a cone, they use the ice cream to create a shape of a rose. Well worth a picture! In addition to ice cream, it is also possible to order delicious crêpes and waffles with Nutella. Open every day from 09:00-00:00.

An authentic brasserie on the boulevard, right in the center of Sainte-Maxime. The beautiful terrace is a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. But also to people watch and enjoy the bustling atmosphere in the center. Café de France is also a great place to eat classic French dishes, which are honest and tasteful. We recommend the "Tartare de boeuf" and the house wine is also absolutely fine. Good value for money. The service is almost always friendly and nothing is too much. It is usually very busy, so that is something to take into account. The interior is characterized by a lot of wood and mirrors. We recommend jazz lovers to come along on a so-called 'Jazz@Table' evening.

A restaurant with a good reputation since a long time. La Réserve is located on the cozy boulevard of Sainte Maxime and is very atmospherically decorated with lots of pillows.

All this for an affordable price for a restaurant on the seafront. Children are also welcome. Reservation is recommended, it is always busy. Popular with Dutch and Belgians.

The location on the beautiful beach of La Nartelle is also great. Make a reservation, park your car, rent beach beds for the whole day, and relax and swim. Enjoy a delicious lunch and the beautiful view of the sea. Try the 'tartare de saumon' and the 'cassolette de St Jacques', with a cold glass of 'Domaine des Planes' rosé.

The well-known (TV) chef Caspar Burgi works and lives in Sainte Maxime. Caspar is a private chef and that means that - in addition to catering - he really enjoys cooking at your villa. An evening with Caspar is therefore more than just a fantastic dinner. Caspar really makes it an experience. If you book Caspar stating VillaSud, you will receive a free bottle of champagne to start the evening with.

There is always a long queue here in the morning and we totally understand why! Delicious baguettes and fresh croissants. There are also tables outside where you can drink a nice cappuccino in the sun.

There's a nice, quiet atmosphere and the service is great! Most main courses are between 25 and 35 euros. Also a good address to eat with children, because they can order from the Little Boho menu.

After working in restaurants for 25 years, chef Francis decided to start his own business. With the aim that everyone can try his delicious dishes at home. We see many fresh and seasonal products at this caterer. Our favorite is the ratatouille! At Traiteur Le Maxime there is also a wide range of French cheeses, foie gras and wine. Don't feel like cooking? Then pick up at this caterer is definitely worth it!

Nice French bakery with a wide range of breads and various pastries. There is even a small terrace where you can enjoy a delicious breakfast in the sun!

Tarte tropézienne is a concept in the south of France. Everywhere you will find branches of this famous pastry chef. We especially recommend the croissants and the Tropezienne baguette. And of course the Tarte tropézienne itself; the specialty of which we buy at least one every holiday. The version with raspberries is especially delicious! This cake was invented in 1955 by Alexander Micka. When the film Et Dieu... créa la femme was on tour and shown in Saint-Tropez, he presented his cake to Brigitte Bardot. She suggested the name Tarte de Saint-Tropez. The pie consists of a round slice of baked dough that is cut in half horizontally. Both slices are sprinkled with orange or rose water. The parts are placed on top of each other with butter cream and pastry cream in between. The cake is sprinkled with powdered sugar. Open every day from 06:30 to 19:30.
