About Charlotte Bar & Bistro

Step past the period doors on Blues Point Road into a light-filled dining room that feels airlifted out of Paris. The opening move is the duck and chicken liver parfait—creamy, sparked with red pepper, and piled onto toasted crusts. Then comes the real draw diners cross the bridge for: the pre-ordered beef en croûte. It arrives golden and crisp, sealing tender beef and mushrooms over a rich Madeira sauce, backed by floor staff who pace every pour without ever hovering.

  • Showpiece French Classics: The pre-ordered beef en croûte served with rich Madeira sauce and the duck and chicken liver parfait headline the bistro menu.
  • Parisian Bistro Setting: A period-style entrance opens to plush seating, natural light, and classic European styling on Blues Point Road.
  • Attentive Table Service: Guests frequently note the polished, swift floor team and thoughtful touches during birthdays and romantic celebrations.

  • Steak Frites with Inventive Sauces

    Steak frites paired with inventive sauces such as sansho gravy and wasabi chimichurri, giving French standards a modern edge.

    The hanger steak was incredibly tender and full of flavour, and the sansho gravy worked so well with the steak.
