Arles is normally hot, hot, hot ! People tire quickly.When you are hot and sweaty, tired and dragging badly, are not famished but want -- no NEED -- food and drink; steer toward Snack Point Soleil on Rue de l'Hôtel de Ville. The Rue de l'Hôtel de Ville is the main street off the large Place de la Republique and shades from the Provence sun all the day. Just past the pharmacy on the corner and a few steps beyond is this tiny shop with 3-4 little tables along the wall.It is nothing much more than a snack shop; but it is charming and pleasant, and the food is satisfying and perfect for walkers. It's a young family operation, so you may be served by a very young daughter. Madame will be up front to greet and take orders, or often to just hand out drinks to those continuing their marathon sight-seeing. Monsieur is 'chef' in the back grilling, or creating a fresh salad or sandwich, or cutting a slice of quiche.The prices are very accommodating; you should only need coins !The fare is light, fresh, and refreshing ... so important for finishing your day of touring the city. Grab some ice cream in a cone to go, before you leave !
