a group of us went ti la vache and the attention was wonderful. food was fab and translations were freely given. quite a lot of cheese options but best of all was their delightful tiramisu. our hostess had the most lovely smile i have seen in months more

La vache - the cow - is a cheerful little restaurant but it's not clear until you dig down into the finer points of the menu that it's All Cheese, Cheese with every dish! As I am not a cheese lover this raised a groan when the penny finally dropped. The waitress was charming but knew nothing about the dishes... more

My wife and I dined at this epic restaurant right around the corner from our hotel. After reading reviews on this site, I introduced myself to Sebastian (the owner) and let him know that he had the 3rd top rated restaurant in Avignon. His eyes lit up immediatley. From tasting amazing wines and the breath taking food, I would have... more

Had a fantastic meal at La Vache a Carreaux in August. The setting in a small street near the Pope's Palace is lovely, and the food, wine, and service top notch. Highly recommended more

La Vache A Carreaux is not Taillevent - it's *way* more fun to eat at La Vache. "What?!" you ask, "Taillevent is one of the best restaurants in the world! Are you on drugs?!" Nope, no drugs here, just a fabulous dining experience with a knowledgable and friendly staff who helped us select an amazing meal, complete with great wine... more

We stumbled upon this little restaurant on our first night in Avignon (and then threatened to go back the second night!). The service was excellent - all the waitstaff were super friendly, and patiently put up with our attempts to speak in French (and kindly carried on speaking to us in French, which we appreciated!). The wine selection was extensive... more

My wife and I, with our two college-age daughters, had waited a little too long on a Tuesday night in March. Many of the restaurants we had hope to try weren't open for the season, and many of the rest were closed at 10PM. We walked into La Vache a Carreaux (just around the corner from the Palais de Papes... more

Conveniently placed, not too far from the Palais des Papes or the Place de l'Horloge, but down a quaint back street nonetheless, we chanced upon this restaurant and managed to bag a reservation (we were there out of season and it was still needed). Having had a culinary nightmare in Carcassonne this was a real find. Charming service, excellent wine... more

After several nice but unremarkable meals, and having become bored with the vegetarian options (or lack of them), I looked forward to eating at La Vache a Carreaux. I couldn't fault a single one of my courses - each was delicious, especially the chocolate dessert with a heart of melted white chocolate. I can also recommend the goat's cheese baked... more
