Did you know that Café Presse and Le Pichet executive chef Jim Drohman has a blog? Check it out for the inside scoop on new menu items, seasonal specials, restaurant announcements, travel photos, recipes and more.
On August 3, 2000, Le Pichet opened its doors and started serving our neighbors for the first time. Given the current concerns about Covid-19, we likely won’t be having a celebration of our 20th Anniversary this August. Instead, just like the day we opened, we will be here, brewing the morning coffee, taking hot croissants out of the oven, opening a bottle of wine and cooking up something good to eat. Hope you will stop by and say “Hello”.
Thanks to all our friends and neighbors for 20 great years! See you here soon
Thanks to everyone who let us know how much they will miss sister restaurnat Cafe Presse! It really means a lot to us. Happily, Le Pichet is not closing and would be happy to welcome you! Many of your favorite dishes are available at both restaurants, including our French onion soup, raclette, chocolat chaud, chicken liver terrine and our famous roast chicken!
Our wine list favors small, independent winemakers working with organic or biodynamic methods to create wines that are a true expression of the land where they are grown. We think that they are perfect with our menu and they offer great value too!
Our entire list is available for you to enjoy at home at very interesting take-out prices. We offer case discounts for purchases of 6 or more bottles and are always ready to help you choose the perfect bottle for a special event or just for dinner at home.
