Reviews
Lovely French wine bar, with a selection of decent wines by the glass.
I dined by myself at the bar, which is a great place to meet people. It was packed when I walked in; the mademoiselle allowed me to stand by the bar to drink while waiting for a seat.
Had a petite assiette de charcuterie to accompany my drinks. While food is not my main concern, the generous selection of 6 types of cured meats & a pate made me very happy.
Drinks wise, started with a Ricard, then a glass each of muscadet sevre, Gigondas, Cahors. Enjoyed the progression between wine and the charcuterie.
The eclectic decor of ties & glass mugs hung from the wooden ceiling made the place feel more fun. For me, service is good. I saw some scowls by other patrons, but it takes 2 to tango! ;)
Highly recommended.
Went there on a Saturday afternoon and the places was packed, but fortunately we managed to find a spot. Despite how busy it is, people there were very friendly and attentive. Service was very fast, and the prices are reasonable considering the location. Moreover, they are quite helpful in suggesting what to drink, which is good considering that they have a decent list to choose from.
We didn't try the food, but it looks good, and would love to come back again to try it. Next time I would make sure to have a reservation before going there.
Found by complete accident, but we'll glad that we did. The host was more than happy to find room for us on a busy Saturday night.
A vast selection of wines from France but a little disappointed not more French beers available rather than Stella!!!
Food menu upstairs was well priced and good basic bistro selection. Would love to know how to become a member to eat in the restaurant downstairs.
Will definitely be back soon
One of the weirdest experiences. We were seated on the bar. My partner was pushed (not a exaggeration, and he did not attempt to say excuse me or anything) out the way by the manager when he was trying to get behind the bar. We were both in shock to even say anything and generally struggle to complain. We then moved ourselves to a table when one freed up. The other waiter seemed to have an issue with this as it was booked for two hours later, but almost seemed like she was doing us a favour by letting us sit there for a drink. We then asked for the bill after our drink. I could see three staff members trying to work out which our bill was. I offered to tell them what we had, which they completely ignored. I then got up to go to the bar to help, when another waiter acted like I was trying to leave without paying. Extremely weird staffing practise and just felt so uncomfortable and unwanted the whole time we were there. Very pretty interior and in theory would be a lovely bar
They say you should never go back. Over 30 years ago, when a young graduate, Le Beaujolais used to be our regular meeting place. Today I decided to engage in nostalgia whilst in London, and we came back to find that the place has hardly changed, a small haven of France in Central London. The food was still generously portioned and great to eat, the house wine delicious and the welcome as good as we remembered. Sometimes they say you should not go back, Le Beaujolais is the place that disproves that rule.
My new favourite bar in London. A wonderfully quirky, buzzy place which couldn't feel further from the touristy, chain-heavy part of London it's situated in. Nice wine (I enjoyed a Viognier then a Beaujolais & Pinot Noir) & will be back to try the food.
The place was absolutely packed but they seemed to be finding a way to accommodate everybody, whether standing, bar seating or at tables. We had reserved & were put on a table of 8 to share - sort of added to the charm but it wouldn't be for everyone.
Great lovely decor and cosy place but APPALLING service. The whole evening experience was ruined by this older male (manager)? It was busy and I understand. We were just trying to find a place to sit down for drinks. Then, he was rude by saying “what do you want me to say”. How odd! We didn’t even say anything that might upset him. I used to work in hospitality industry and I DO understand the work can be exhausting. But, please at least show some kindness to jolly first time customer. My friend recommended this place to me several times and had high praised, so I thought give it a go this evening. Definitely not going back.
A quaint and quirky French wine bar that I would definitely recommend. The staff are friendly, there is a decent wine selection as well as other options if you still wish to visit London's oldest French wine bar but wine isn't your thing. …
