Relais des Peintres, French restaurant in Auvers-sur-Oise, France.
Relais des Peintres occupies a 17th-century building on Rue du Général de Gaulle that blends traditional and modern design throughout. The space retains original structural features while incorporating contemporary elements in its layout and furnishings.
It began as a post station along the northern route from Paris and later converted into a restaurant operation. This transformation occurred as Auvers-sur-Oise became a destination for artists seeking inspiration from the landscape.
The name honours the painters who came to Auvers-sur-Oise in the 1800s to create their works. The dining space opens onto views of the village landscape that drew these artists here.
The restaurant opens for evening service on select weekdays and weekends, with weekend lunch available on Sunday. Its location on a main street makes it straightforward to find when walking through the village.
From the dining room, guests look out toward the church steeple that Vincent van Gogh painted during his time in the village. This view links the dining experience to a moment in the location's artistic past.
