Le Pont Julien - Apt

We had looked forward to this evening at the Pont julien, It was hardly open and some others wandered in. The food was almost inedible/over cooked and could hardly cut the lamb. The worst meal we had to sit through in a month. We can now appreciate why there were few diners. I would never send anyone here!

Lovely place, good value, cordial sevice. Highly recommended and desserts were fabulous. Menu we had was 15€ for main dish (fish) and dessert.

My wife and I went to Restaurant Pont Julien for Saturday lunch. The day was a bit breezy, so we dined inside. The interior of the restaurant is tres charmant, the owner/hostess very welcoming, and the lunch was excellent, typical Provencal. The price was reasonable. We will return.

Construit par les Romains en 3 av. J.-C., il faisait partie de la Via Domitia, la première route construite sur le territoire de la Gaule. Le bâtisseur de cette route était Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus, fondateur de la colonie romaine à Narbonne (aujourd'hui Narbonne), qui à partir de 118 av. J.-C. était la capitale de la Gaule narbonnaise (Gallia Narbonensis). Le pont Julien s'élève au-dessus de la rivière Calavon, près des villes modernes de Bonnieux et d'Apt. Ce pont a été construit en pierre naturelle, sans utiliser de mortier. Actuellement, le pont Julien est en bon état technique et reste toujours utilisé par les piétons et les cyclistes.
