When you step into the Golden Square Mile’s Le Pois Penché, it’s as if you’ve stumbled into a classic Parisian brasserie. Sure, the brunch is legendary—where red velvet chairs and black-and-white checkered floors set the stage for classics like ham and Gruyère omelette and mascarpone-laden French toast—but don’t be fooled into thinking this place is a one-trick pony.
The dinner menu is also where the brasserie shines with the familiar comfort of French favourites. Think steak frites, rich duck confit, and indulgent. And for seafood lovers, there’s the fresh seafood platter—a towering tribute to all things oceanic.
It’s more than a place to grab brunch or dinner—it’s a space to unwind, whether at the polished bar with a perfectly crafted cocktail, on the cozy summer terrace with a glass of wine, or in the elegant private wine cellar, which feels like a tucked-away escape for special events.
