Welcome to
Bistro La Cloche

Our vision and love for classic cuisine and service stand above all. No new with a nod to the past but classic with a nod to the present. For years we’ve visited several countries in search for dishes and wines from classic cuisines. Here we bring al these cultures together, all of this with the nod to the ’here and now’ of course. On behalf of our team, we wish you a wonderful and timeless dinner.
