Restaurant Marcon
Creative · ★★★ Michelin
€€€€
The Marcons are a family team: Régis Marcon senior, self-proclaimed Auvergnat-Italian, exceptional cook, entrepreneur and culinary authority, works with his sons, Jacques, who has confidently moved to the forefront, and Paul, Bocuse d’Or 2025. Here, one thing is clear: the market and the seasons dictate the menu. There is something for everyone: meat from the plateau, Le Puy green lentils, asparagus, broad beans, snails and, above all, mushrooms – the family speciality, which they pick in autumn. This is food with strong roots – whole roasted Vocance squab paired with stewed green peas and stu

Pic
Creative · ★★★ Michelin
€€€€
The first thing to mention about Maison Pic (in the Drôme département of southeast France) is its special atmosphere. An artfully lit room designed to cast light on the dishes, floral creations, a thick carpet that muffles the steps of a front-of-house team dressed in classic attire. Here, they serve food the old-fashioned way, on a porcelain plate under a cloche. The lofty culinary obsessions of a chef who has been dubbed "the tightrope walker of flavours" – adulation of Japan, original presentations – make themselves felt in the dishes. Anne-Sophie Pic now serves a single set menu with seven

Le Carré d'Alethius
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
Between the départements of Drôme and Ardèche, this restaurant named after Roman senator Alethius has a distinctly Provençal air about it. The villa is arranged around a square courtyard, a gorgeous verdant patio where you can dine in fine weather. After working for Jean-Michel Lorain at La Côte Saint-Jacques, Olivier Samin occupied the post of sous-chef for Anne-Sophie Pic for a long time. He delivers fresh cuisine that reflects the seasons and market availability (eg regional fruit and vegetables, escargots from Helix Eyrieux, local cheeses), and he also has a tremendous sense of balance: pr

La Cachette
Modern Cuisine, Creative · ★ Michelin
€€€
In the lower part of Valence, this hidden gem is the contemporary lair of Japanese chef Masashi Ijichi. He crafts a fine, delicate repertory, underscored by a succulent encounter between the Drôme region and inspired flashes of Asia. A few examples: pumpkin soup with sea urchin, avocado and prawn toast and an ethereal dessert of oranges, vanilla and walnuts. Outstanding wine list including a superb selection of northern Côtes du Rhône wines.

Épithèque
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
In the heart of historic Valence, Flaveurs has become Épithèque. In a colourful setting, depicted by a carpeted floor and chestnut wood tables, Baptiste Poinot aims to create closer ties with his diners and can often be found in the dining room. Influenced by his delicatessen grandfather, Poinot studied at Vienne Hospitality School, before learning the ropes with Michel Chabran, Anne-Sophie Pic and Joël Robuchon. This sensitive chef, who seeks above all to convey an emotion, crafts food that bears witness to the careful thought, excellent produce and consummate skill behind each dish.

La Récré
Traditional Cuisine · Bib
€€
This restaurant is housed in what used to be the village boys' school, and evidence of this former vocation remains in original features such as blackboards and maps. On the menu, traditional cuisine, sometimes enhanced with Asian flavours, such as the prawn skewers with their surprise sauce; and it tastes even better when enjoyed at one of the tables in the shaded courtyard.

La Bòria
Creative · ★ Michelin
€€€
The view over the valley and the surrounding Ardèche hillsides, a beautiful timber structure, chestnut wood tables, an indoor aromatic herb garden and the etymology of the name bòria ("small Cévennes farm" in Ardèche dialect) - the stage is set! Assisted by a high-flying team whose wholehearted commitment to the house ethos is beyond doubt, chef Florian Descours pays tribute to his rural roots with fresh, local produce: beef from Privas, pork from Beaulieu, snails from the Eyrieux valley and trout from Vercors). A treat from beginning to end, from the grilled baby gem lettuce and Villevocance

Les Cèdres
Classic Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€€
Some establishments have chosen to shy away from media hype and les Cèdres is in that category. Betwixt Romans and Tain-l’Hermitage in Drôme, venture over the threshold of this restaurant, shaded by cedars and devoted to nature, and sample the work of the Bertrand brothers: Jacques in the kitchen and Jean-Paul in the dining room. Since 1988, they have lavished time, humility and talent on developing their enterprise. As Gallic as Gauloises and Jacques Tati, the menu focuses on flavour rather than fancy technique. The authentic warm welcome adds the final flourish to this hospitable establishme
