Wonderful staff, very amused & helpful with someone learning French. Excellent service, cocktail & wine selection. Food was delicious, brought out appropriately; no rushing through the meal. Highly recommended. Mmmm, new Brunswick oysters....

Dans mon top 10 des restaurants que j'ai fait dans ma vie ! Serveurs attentionnés, beau cadre & décoration soignée, nourriture excellente. Difficile de choisir ses plats tant la carte est tentante. La cuisson du poisson était juste parfaite. Beaucoup de saveurs & association des aliments très recherchée. & pas trop salé ou trop sucré comme dans beaucoup de restaurants. Bien au dessus de beaucoup de restaurant 1 étoile Michelin

Lovely dinner at Clocher Penché- atmosphere is lovely, quaint & modern bistro feel. Great oysters & lovely fish entrée. Staff were friendly & attentive. Food was really fresh & tasty- only downside are the chairs of the low top tables are not very comfortable ! Otherwise, the experience was very positive.

absolutely delicious & hoping to return again soon after our first experience. drinks were great. I really enjoyed the strawberry cocktail, it was a bit spicy & very delicious. as an app, we had the fresh cheese & bread. fresh cheese with the duck & artichoke was a heavenly bite. the beef dish was incredible & will be dreamt of for a while - smoky & delectable. the pasta dish was a nice, fresh & acidic contrast. the desserts left a bit more to be desired after the complex dishes prior but good nonetheless. the service was friendly & attentive. I really enjoyed my experience & can't wait to return.
