Arbequina Arbequina is a hidden gem, nestled in the historic town of Thuir
Named after a small aromatic olive, native to Catalonia, the menu embodies the chef’s passion for Mediterranean cuisine and his attachment to the land and people of his region.
In homage to the Mediterranean, dishes are fresh, light and sunny. The choice of ingredients is thoughtful and imaginative but uncomplicated, with plenty of fresh, colourful vegetables.
Recognised as a Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant, young chef, Guillaume Franco, was inspired by the authentic, homemade cooking of his mother and grandmother.
This inspiration was then nurtured and refined as Guillaume trained with some of the top Perpignan chefs.
Meeting local producers and talking with them about their daily life, their passion for their products, is at the heart of Guillaume’s philosophy. Arbequina’s menu is developed according to the seasons, encounters and traditions of the region.
Opening Hours

Did you know? In 1900 the Michelin tyre company launched its first guidebook to encourage road travel around France. Today, the Michelin Star is a hallmark of fine dining, and status. But great food doesn’t always come at affordable prices, so the Michelin Bib Gourmand was launched. The award highlights restaurants offering exceptional food at moderate prices… which is exactly what you will find at Arbequina.

We’ve eaten there numerous times both lunch and dinner. Always a warm welcome from the staff and the food is very good. Portion sizes are good but not too big and the choice of food is not too wide making it easy to choose, even for a fussy eater! Quality has always been good. Definitely recommend it.
