Hope to see you all soon.” Café Beaujolais was known for its authentic French fare, served by staff who spoke French and enjoyed by the Francophiles of Eagle Rock. “Everything French, even the attitude,” the restaurant boasted.
The menu featured classic staples like Coq Au Vin, Escargots De Bourgogne, and Le Poulet Dijonais. Patrons who frequented the spot for date nights and anniversaries described its ambiance as cozy and intimate, swooning in online reviews over the candlelit tables and resident piano player who classed the place up throughout the week and on weekends. Chef Norbert headed Cafe Beaujolais’ kitchen for over 20 years, and his sister Caroline joined the crew after the cafe reopened post-pandemic.
