Binchstub Broglie

Binchstub Broglie is a casual Alsatian bistro at 6 Rue du Tonnelet Rouge on Strasbourg's Grande Île, near Place Broglie, in the Alsace region of France. It is known for tarte flambée, the thin, crisp, wood-oven-style flatbread topped with crème fraîche, onions and lardons that is one of the region's emblematic dishes. The venue is classed as a winstub but works more like an informal evening bar-restaurant, with the tarte flambée as the main event and an easygoing menu around it. Prices fall in the moderate range, and the specialty note describes it as a casual address with average prices that is often full in the evening. The room is relaxed and sociable, with a mix of locals and visitors, an after-work and late-evening crowd, and a lively sound level once the tables fill. Dress is casual. Alsatian wines, particularly Riesling and Pinot Gris, and regional beer are the natural drinks to order with the tartes, and ordering several tartes to share across the table is a common approach. Le Bonbon lists daily opening from 18:30 to 01:00, which makes it one of the later options in the centre for dinner or a late bite after a concert or an evening walk along the canals. Because it is often busy in the evening, booking is recommended, and the restaurant offers online booking through its website. Reservations are especially worthwhile on Friday and Saturday nights and during the Christmas market season, when central Strasbourg is crowded. Arriving right at 18:30 can also secure a table without a reservation. The location near Place Broglie is easy to reach on foot from the cathedral and from the Opera area.
