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.

    Bouchon is always a good evening. The food is excellent, and there is a warm friendly energy in there.

    The Food was not so good as in former times. The Wine was not cold enough. The Ambience: it was too noisy.

    We were a table of 4 people and shared the tapas plates which worked well as it allowed us the freedom to taste many dishes. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and the experience. We'll be back !

    Inventive and delicious food. Just a little too much salt…. Otherwise, a very nice restaurant.
