Taverne de l'Oratoire: your medieval restaurant in Grasse
Taverne de l'Oratoire is a medieval restaurant located at 23 rue de l'Oratoire, in the heart of Grasse's historic centre, in the Alpes-Maritimes. Founded by two passionate lovers of the Middle Ages and gastronomy, our tavern transports you to the authentic atmosphere of ancient taverns. Between stone walls, wood panelling and candlelight, savour traditional homemade French cuisine in a setting unique on the Côte d'Azur.
Our menu features dishes inspired by medieval recipes, prepared with fresh, local produce. The poularde with mustard and honey sauce is one of our most popular specialities. For drinks, our artisanal mead — a millennia-old beverage made from fermented honey — and our hypocras — a medieval spiced wine with cinnamon and ginger aromas — are exclusivities you will not find anywhere else in the region. Average main course price: €17 to €24.
From October to March, the Tavern hosts themed medieval evenings once a month: feasts, shows, period music and costumes. The Tavern can also be hired privately for your events: birthdays, weddings, seminars or corporate evenings. With 50 indoor seats and 20 on the terrace, we adapt our space to all your projects. We also offer an event catering service with medieval tableware.
