Bistrotheque

(8 Ratings)
Traditional English and French dishes with a side of camp

Slightly off the map in an arty corner of East London's Bethnal Green, this trendy and lively good-food restaurant got a noticeable refurbishment in 2012, with the restaurant expanded and the basement cabaret space and gin bar removed. The main floor is now open plan. The cocktail-friendly Manchichi Bar – where one can also eat – opens from 6pm. The establishment's most recent invention, the downstairs performance space The Cockatoo, features a show followed by dinner (same as upstairs menu) on Friday and Saturday.



Hours
Thu and Fri 6pm—9.30pm
Sat 11am—3.45pm, 6pm—9.30pm
Sun 1am—3.45pm

Fun Place To Enjoy Good Food

My husband & I really enjoyed this place. The food was really great, the service friendly and the crowd wasn't hard to look at either!
