  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
We’re delighted to introduce Bavette. A neighbourhood bistro filled with warm engaging hospitality, with a menu of seasonally led classically driven dishes.

We hope to get that balance of generosity and quality right - that juxtaposition of every day special.

Bavette is a love letter to our favourite places we’ve been to and been lucky enough to be a part of.

Sandy Jarvis and Clément Cousin.

    The food was well worth the wait to visit will definitely be back the bavette steak with the sauce bordelaise was unreal I could drink jugs of the sauce. The beef tartare is a must have and the crème brûlée was delicious. The service was really good. And the cuvee bavette red wine that they sell was so easy drinking I just wish I should have asked to buy a bottle to take home with me.

    On the surface Bavette appears to be expensive. But for us the food and service are outstanding and worth every penny. This is our second visit and we are looking forward to the next one. Thank you for a fabulous experience.
