Description: It's starting to look like Paris on the Prairies, as Winnipeg's French Quarter undergoes a renaissance all of its own. Linked to the city by a quaint pedestrian bridge, the area known as Old St. Boniface is thriving as the center of franco-Manitoban culture. And looking out at the neighborhood's lamp-lit streets from Promenade Bistro, you'd be forgiven for momentarily imagining the Champs-Elysees. In a streamlined room set off by a large bank of windows on the banks of the red river with views of the Provencher bridge and Canadian Human rights museum.

My wife and I just returned from our first visit to the Promenade Cafe and Wine. What a pleasant and inviting restaurant. The staff was attentive and the food was delicious. The late evening jazz band was a delight. We could have stayed longer, as we were told to sit back and relax. A great place to go and take... More

My spouse and I had a date night here recently...a place I've been wanting to try for a while. While it was a fine experience and the food was good it just didn't have the wow factor that I was hoping for. We waited for a while before the server came to take our drink order and when ready to... More

I recently went to the Promenade for breakfast. When I arrived there was only two other people in the cafe, and that is a poor sign. But I was pleasently surprised. I had the breakfast special and it was well prepared and attractively served. The waitress was very pleasant. When we left there was lots of people there. I would... More

I'll start by saying: the food here was GREAT. From the soup to the entrees and desserts, all was really good. Now the service: fair at most. We waited about 15 minutes to be asked for drinks and then about 10 minutes more to take our order. so, 25 minutes until you can order is quite a while. The food... More

We went for the first time to Promenade Bistro last night for our 'early' Valentine's Day dinner. What a great choice! The atmosphere was cosy, the food delicious and the service absolutely perfect. Loved that there were many choices for 1/2 orders. My husband ordered the beef bourguignon and absolutely loved it and I had the half order of the... More

We like French cuisine, so were disappointed to learn that the Provence Bistro at the Niakwa Country Club had closed. A little research, and we learned that Mr. Brandson had moved to a St. Bonifice location with a new name. The Promenade Cafe is located in the French Quarter, just across the Provencher Bridge, offering fabulous views of downtown Winnipeg.... More

We enjoyed the Provencher Cafe and Wine during Dine Out Winnipeg 2013. This was our first visit to the restaurant. We ate in the back room and, because the room is surrounded by windows, had a beautiful view of the Provencher Bridge and the CMHR! The food was very good - interesting warm and cold pea soup, beef bourgignon. Unfortunately... More

Our youngest spent this past summer in Montreal with the goal of becoming more proficient in Canada’s official second language, so she was the perfect lunch date to accompany me to Promenade Café and Wine at the historic corner of Tache and Provencher Blvd. in St. Boniface. As we ordered, she told me tales of the poutineries in the Le... More

Everything was excellent during our Saturday afternoon brunch. Server was perfectly attentive, and the food was exactly what we wanted. Portions were huge (could have split a dish with my mom given our desire to not ruin dinner), everything was at the right temperature. The fresh turkey and bread in the club was to die for (though really, how is... More
