Le Patriarche is taking a holiday break for the festive season.
Le Patriarche unveils its winter menu for long evenings
The bistro will be closed from December 20, 2025 to January 4, 2026.
A simple end-of-year break, to make room for the holidays, reunions, and shared good moments.
We will be delighted to welcome you back from January 5, true to our cuisine and to the spirit of the house.
The entire Patriarche team wishes you a wonderful festive season, warm and full of flavor.
We look forward to welcoming you again very soon.
(We are still here this week!)
