Situated in the heart of Cape Town’s city centre and set in a charming urban winery, Bouchon Wine Bar & Bistro is a meeting place for like-minded people who love flavoursome, down-to-earth food and are curious about the world of wine.

Behind this venture is winemaker Christophe Durand of Dorrance Wines and restaurateur Faisal Khakoo of La Boheme Bistro & Wine Bar and Engruna Eatery, who saw the gap for a sophisticated yet relaxed food and wine experience that compliments the enchanting winery setting.

Bouchon’s winelist embraces both local and international gems and is accompanied by a weekly ‘Travel Through Your Glass’ selection which allows you the opportunity to discover and enjoy spectacular wines from around the world by the glass.

Complementing the wine offering is a weekly menu that boasts uncomplicated seasonal tapas and scrumptious desserts.

    This was my 3rd visit recently. I had the Japanese mushroom gnocchi each time, and it was stunning. The tuna tataki I had twice, and it was delicious. Unfortunately my partners pork ribs were a bit overcooked the second time. Desserts were not good, especially my cheese cake, which I didn't even finish. Derek

    I had the pleasure of hosting high-level customers at Bouchon Bistro last Friday evening for an early dinner, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was exceptional – beautifully prepared, flavorful, and perfectly paired with their excellent wine selection. The ambiance struck the perfect balance between elegant and relaxed, making it ideal for both business and leisure dining. Service was attentive and professional, adding to the overall seamless evening. Bouchon Bistro is definitely a gem, and I look forward to returning soon. Highly recommended!

    Fantastic restaurant; the tuna tataki and the risotto were the stand out meals for us. They were very sweet to put a birthday message for my wife on her dessert. The vibe was very chilled and the service was attentive without lurking. We would recommend a visit.
