Tucked away in the heart of Ewell Village, Bordelaise brings a slice of Southern France to Surrey with charm, character and a whole lot of flavour.
Housed in a beautifully restored listed building on Epsom’s High Street, this French steakhouse and bistro is a local favourite for everything from romantic dinners to lively weekend brunches. Inside, the restaurant blends French country charm with elegant touches, while the upstairs private rooms and beer garden offer flexible spaces for celebrations or relaxed afternoons. The vibe is warm and welcoming, with attentive service and a loyal following.
The menu is a celebration of rustic French cooking, with bold, comforting dishes inspired by the Bordeaux region. Expect perfectly seared flat iron steaks served with beef dripping fries and Bordelaise jus, rich French onion soup, buttery escargots, and tender confit duck. Vegetarians are well catered for too, with seasonal dishes that carry the same soulful flair. On Thursdays, moules frites take centre stage, while Sundays offer a French-style roast with options like rump beef, corn-fed chicken, or confit duck leg, all served with Dauphinoise potatoes and classic trimmings. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, featuring French and European bottles that pair beautifully with the rich, savoury menu.
Bordelaise also knows how to make a weekend sparkle - its bottomless brunch (available Saturday and Sunday) includes 90 minutes of unlimited prosecco, wine, beer, or cocktails when you order a main. And if you’re dining midweek, don’t miss the two-for-one steak offer on Tuesdays or the Early Bird discount from Wednesday to Saturday. Whether you're popping in for a quick weekday lunch or planning a leisurely evening out, Bordelaise offers a dining experience that feels both indulgent and approachable.
