About
Welcome to Bistro La Boucane - Ferme Saint Siméon ***** - Bistro à Honfleur, a culinary jewel tucked away in the picturesque town of Honfleur, France. Nestled on 20 Rte Adolphe Marais, this charming bistro is not just a meal; it’s an experience steeped in art and history, as the area itself was immortalized in the paintings of Monet.
Upon entering the bistro, guests are greeted by a warm ambiance that reflects the allure of its surroundings. The restaurant is part of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux collection, promising an exclusive dining experience. The beautifully manicured gardens frame the setting, adding to the overall grace of your visit.
As you peruse the menu, the offerings showcase a delightful array of dishes that exemplify the best of French cuisine. From ‘les canards’ to classic tartes aux pommes, the culinary creations here are a celebration of local ingredients and traditional techniques. Patrons have praised the duck for its rich flavor, though some noted a desire for a touch more sophistication in presentation. The traditional apple tart, however, has undoubtedly earned its accolades as a must-try.
While the food generally receives high marks, the service experience has had its share of mixed reviews. Guests like Marc T appreciated the excellent cuisine but commented on lapses in service, highlighting opportunities for improvement in attentive hospitality. Nevertheless, the charming atmosphere and stunning views of the estuary remain unmatched, making each visit memorable.

“ Very good food. Very good service. Very especial restaurant. It was shown in several Monet paintings. ”
“ Amazing food in a very charming place. The bistrot is part of a very exclusive Relais et châteaux hôtels. I regret that the service is not at the level of the cuisine and environment (and I'm not talking about the Ukrainian waiter who is doing a great job in my opinion). For instance: we were not given the dessert menu nor asked if we wanted a dessert by the waitress. After finishing our main dishes, we were left for at least 20 minutes without any service, to that add the 20 minutes it took to get the bill. It's really a pity cuz the food is quiet good and the location is prime. ”
“ Absolute gem - anyone who visits Honfleur without eating here will certainly have missed out. Beautifully manicured gardens (dripping in art history) and a view of the estuary are a bonus! ”
“ Amazingly quite for holiday season, and an excellent set lunch menu! A short (if steep) walk from the centre of Honfleur, and absolutely delightful stuff. Would wholeheartedly recommend. ”
“ Beautifully decorated and cozy restaurant very close to Honfleur in a stunning property Relais&Chateau. Had the duck which was very tasty but lacked a bit of excitement and sophistication. The traditional apple tart was very good. Overall a very good experience. Could be improved though. ”
