There is something inherently French about taking your time over a meal—a leisurely brunch that stretches into the afternoon, a glass of wine enjoyed with carefully selected bites, or an apéro shared with friends before the evening begins.
At Bistrot Le Coucou, this spirit of French dining takes center stage. Set in an intimate and refined bistro setting, Bistrot Le Coucou celebrates classic French flavors, exceptional wine, and the pleasure of good conversation, creating experiences that invite guests to slow down and savor the moment.
A Parisian Start to the Day
For those who prefer a leisurely start, Parisian Brunch is served daily from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, bringing together comforting French bistro classics and indulgent favorites.
The selection includes the Smoked Salmon Flatbread, Croque Monsieur, and Croque Madame, alongside the rich and comforting French-Style Mac and Cheese. For something more indulgent, guests can enjoy the Lobster Roll, featuring tender lobster in toasted brioche, or the Golden White Chocolate French Toast, served with maple syrup, fresh fruits, and whipped cream.
It is a menu designed for lingering—whether over a late breakfast, a long lunch, or an afternoon catch-up.
The Chef’s Specialités
For a taste of French cooking beyond brunch, Spécialités du Chef brings together dishes that showcase the richness and character of French cuisine.
Guests can begin with Beignets de Morue, golden salt cod fritters served with pil-pil garlic aioli and toasted pine nuts, or Salmon Rillette served with crackers. Heartier choices include Cassoulet de Porc, a traditional slow-cooked preparation of pork, white beans, herbs, and a golden crust, and Rôti de Bœuf, served with creamy mashed potatoes and rich beef jus.
For a savory finish, the Blue Cheese Crème Brûlée offers a playful take on the classic French dessert, combining blue cheese with a caramelized crust.
A French Wine Experience, One Pour at a Time
Wine takes an equally important place at Bistrot Le Coucou through Dégustation de Vin, a curated tasting experience created for guests who want to explore different wines while enjoying thoughtfully selected food pairings.
The Discovery Flight features four wines paired with a chef-curated cheese and cold cuts platter at PHP 1,500+ per head, while The Grand Voyage offers eight distinct wines with the same style of curated pairing at PHP 2,995+ per head.
Available all day, every day, the experience is designed for a minimum of two guests, with advance reservations highly recommended.
The selection spans a range of wines including Muscadet, Bordeaux Blanc, Bordeaux Rouge, Rosé,
Côtes du Rhône, Cabernet Franc, and Tempranillo, offering guests an opportunity to discover different expressions of each pour.
The Art of Apéro
As the day winds down, Bistrot Le Coucou embraces one of France’s most beloved rituals: apéro.
Apéro Hour brings together a selection of cocktails and wines for 2 for PHP 595+, available all day from Monday to Wednesday and from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM every Thursday and Friday.
For those who believe that a good drink is even better with something to share, Martinis et Frites pairs crisp, seasoned fries with two handcrafted Martinis from Bistrot Le Coucou’s Martini Series for PHP 895+, available all day, every day. Guests can choose from the Dry Martini, Dirty Martini, Vesper, and Espresso Martini.
A Place for Every Kind of Gathering
Whether it is a late brunch with friends, an intimate lunch, an afternoon wine tasting, or drinks and frites before dinner, Bistrot Le Coucou offers guests different ways to enjoy the pleasures of French bistro culture.
Rather than rushing from one occasion to the next, Bistrot Le Coucou encourages guests to stay awhile, order another glass, share another plate, and enjoy the company around the table.
