Our French Restaurant in Leicester City Centre
Bonjour, Leicester. Tucked away on Millstone Lane in the heart of the city, our Bistrot is a warm, relaxed spot for proper French food, cooked fresh every day. Steak Frites before the theatre, Moules and a glass of something on a Friday, a long weekend breakfast: we’ve got it covered.
Weekends start with Menu Complet: any cooked breakfast dish with a hot drink and fruit juice for £14.50.
Every afternoon, there’s Crème de la Crémant, our Apéro Hour, with 2 cocktails for £15. Then settle in with the À la Carte, full of French classics and new seasonal dishes.
Or keep it simple with our Menu Pierre set menu: 2 courses £20.95 or 3 courses £24.95, served all day Sunday to Friday and Saturday until 5pm.
