Where to Eat in Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer? Olala Cafe

A walk along the promenade at Les Lecques, around the little port and out to sea along the jetty has always been a family favourite, but I’ve always struggled to find a vegetarian lunch after our walk. It’s a typical French seaside resort with all the menu choices the locals obviously enjoy. Paninis/pizza slices have long been the only alternative.

So, I was delighted to come across the Olala Café on a recent visit to Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer. As a vegetarian, it is not always easy to find healthy lunch options, but Olala Café was perfect.

Visit Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer

This seaside town is in the Var department, close to Toulon, Bandol, and La Ciotat. Saint-Cyr sur-Mer has a marina and sandy beaches. Residents and visitors enjoy Saint-Cyr’s beautiful bay of Lecques, surrounded by forests and vineyards. Plage des Lecques stretches for two kilometres. The fine sand is popular with families. On the other hand, plage La Madrague has a smaller beach and a boardwalk. Both beaches and the town of Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer are popular day trips from Aix-en-Provence and Marseille. For golfers, the 18-hole Frégate golf course delivers plenty of challenges alongside beautiful coastal views.
