Lumière Bistro
36 Ball Park Rd, Sewanee TN 37375From Ratatouille and Rosé to Sweet Potato Pies and Sazeracs, the gastronomic traditions of our American South and the South of France have much in common—an incredibly rich food and drink culture, a love of the land and the bounty it supplies, and a warm and welcoming spirit of hospitality.
At Lumière we embrace the Southern culture of both countries by curating simple, delicious menus from the land, offered with a spirit of sharing, bound to a belief that our role as a restaurant should include more than an economic exchange.
Food and drink nourish our bodies, our minds, and our relationships. We extend that care to our community by providing a place for celebration, an active program of community education and engagement, safe and responsible employment, and a firm belief that no one is doing well unless all of our neighbors are doing well.
Just as Sewanee’s professors once left a porch light on at their homes to let lonely students know they were welcome for food or fellowship, Lumière keeps the light on for our regional family, offering comfort for wanderers near and far from home.
