Cafe Rouge

Specialties

Our chefs and our food are at the heart of everything we do. Duncan McKewan, Executive Chef, is constantly checking our kitchens of excellence and liaising with head chefs to ensure all our authentic dishes are the best. We use great fresh ingredients, traditional French kitchen cooking methods and classic Rouge recipes all day every day.

History

Established in 1989.

Café Rouge was launched in Richmond, London, in 1989 by Karen Jones and Roger Myers, foodies on a mission to recreate real French food and wine in a Parisienne bistro style setting. Rouge was also the fave hangout for Bridget and friends in ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’, the novel that helped make us a household name. Today we continue to recreate core classics like Steak Frites, Poulet Breton, Moules and Confit de Canard as well as croques, salads and baguettes available to enjoy… with a gorgeous glass of French wine.

THE VENUE

Café Rouge Blackheath boasts two beautiful bay windows, mosaic flooring, champagne displays and a stunning white marble bar top, part of the original design of the restaurant. If you feel like dining al fresco, there’s a large outdoors terrace for seating up to 100 people — perfect for a glass of your fave vin rouge. There are also private parking facilities available for all of our customers traveling by car.
