Their World Cup dreams may have just been dashed, but the French have a lot to look forward to this month. As the world watches Le Tour de France, the country is also preparing to celebrate something even bigger: Bastille Day. To honour their French roots and celebrate too, Hotel du Vin & Bistro Bristol is offering revellers half-price French wines by the glass, from 14-17 July.
Knowing that a celebration isn’t complete without drink and food, they’re also serving complimentary nibbles – including pancetta-wrapped grissini, anchovy twists and cheese straws – for anyone toasting French National Day with them between 5-7pm.
If nibbles have only whetted the appetite, they encourage guests to stay and dine Al Fresco on their new menu. New, seasonal dishes like Oeuf Meurette, Steak Frites and Scottish Strawberries with Crème Chantilly have been designed to complement Hotel du Vin & Bistro Bristol’s extensive list of French wines.
Bonne fête du 14 juillet!
