Inviting restaurant with a lounge and terrace opposite Bordeaux station

  • Local cuisine and a seasonal menu

  • Welcoming spot opposite Bordeaux station

  • Lunchtime menu for a quick bite

  • Cocktails and sharing snacks

Named after the Bordeaux railway station and the district around it, Le Saint-Jean serves generous French cuisine. Our bistro-style dishes have that extra spark that comes from using local produce combined with an original take on flavours. Treat yourself to a gourmet break between meetings or before catching your train.

With a contemporary ambiance and a butcher's-style wall mural giving a nod to the history of the Quai de Paludate, the décor of Le Saint-Jean celebrates the rebirth of this lively Bordeaux district.

On our terrace, inspired by stylish Parisian bistros, you can watch travellers at the station come and go. The lounge, with its comfy banquettes, is an ideal spot to recharge your phone and treat yourself to a pastry. Our Paris-Brest, with its caramel coulis and hazelnut ice cream, will definitely cheer you up, even before a long journey.

Train departure approaching? Choose from the midday menu for a quick and delicious lunch. Our menu changes with the seasons, and the only constant is that we always use the best local produce along with top-quality organic vegetables and fruit. Everybody will find something to their taste, from fish to French-reared meat or vegetarian options.

When aperitif time comes around, ask for our drinks menu. Classic cocktails or bespoke creations, with or without alcohol, accompany our selection of snacks with style. Why not order a Croque Saint-Jean or a hummus platter to share between colleagues or friends?

    (Translated by Google) I loved the tuna tartare with ginger which was very spicy and the pistachio dessert which was not too sweet. The service was great, the waiter was super nice and attentive, I recommend!

    J'ai adoré le tartare de thon au gingembre qui était bien relevé et le dessert à la pistache pas trop sucré. Le service était top, le serveur super gentil et aux petits soins, je recommande!

    (Translated by Google) We had the foie gras (to die for with the compote), the entrecôte (perfect meat and cooking) and the octopus (a success with its accompaniment of coriander sauce and black rice). The wines offered went very well with the dishes, I recommend the orange wine with the foie gras! Finally, the service is perfect, with attentive and funny servers. A very good dinner near the station before returning to Paris.

    Nous avons pris le foie gras (à tomber par terre avec la compotee), l’entrecôte (viande et cuisson parfaite) et le poulpe (une réussite avec son accompagnement sauce coriandre et riz noir). Les vins proposés se sont très bien accordés aux plats, je conseille le vin orange sur le foie gras ! Enfin le service est parfait, avec des serveurs aux petits soins et marrants. Une bien bon dîner à côté de la gare avant de rentrer sur Paris.
