About this space

Bleeding Heart is a long-established French bistro occupying intimate dining rooms and a terrace, defined by rustic timber joinery and period bistro details.

Design: The interior displays exposed brick, worn timber floorboards and a mix of small square tables and bentwood chairs beneath tall sash windows. The walls feature vintage French wine posters and a restrained, neutral palette that lets natural light dominate daytime service.

Features: The venue includes an all-year terrace for outdoor seating and a full bar backed by an extensive wine list available by the bottle and by the glass. The space provides Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and a PA system; the venue allows its own music and permits bringing a DJ.

Ideal for: Small to medium groups seeking relaxed, seated dinners or wine-led social evenings in an informal, neighbourhood-bistro setting.

What sets it apart: A private historic crypt adjacent to the dining rooms provides an unusual, secluded sub-space for more intimate gatherings.

What guests say: The venue provides attentive, unobtrusive service and a compact bistro atmosphere that reads like a small French neighbourhood restaurant.
