We regularly use this cafe as we have a holiday home in the town.The staff are great and the food offerings are more than adequate and very reasonably priced.We consider ourselves as discerning diners and believe Bonjour provides a good alternative dining option in the town More

Perhaps this is French authenticity, but Bonjour staff seemed almost supercilious about what they had to offer - it should be so good that it didn't matter that the service was poor and the menu inflexible. Arriving late morning, we were too early for lunch, so the offer was crepes, crepes or crepes. We chose crepes ... which we were... More

Having travelled a lot in France over the last few years it is a delight to find an authentic French cafe restaurant in Arrowtown. I have visited this cafe a few times while on holiday here, but having recently moved to Arrowtown to live, I have been sampling the coffee in town and still think Bonjour has the best. I... More

We had been leaving in Queenstown for 3 months and we decided to go there for Christmas dinner. It was absolutely fabulous. The "escargots de Bourgogne" were perfect, the "Petit Chablis" matched perfectly, and the "patisseries" were delicious. Very good value for your money. The right medication for the homesickness.

Recently visited Arrowtown and spent an enjoyable half hour in this lovely cafe. All the staff were very friendly and had us seated promptly. Food arrived soon afterward - my wife had an 'apple pocket' which was delicious, and I had a crepe which reminded me of my time in France. Coffee was just right too. You can sit outside... More
