Bienvenue

Classic French cooking,
made personal.

Olivier and Lynette Bossut took over The French Pantry in March 2020, bringing a familiar face back to the kitchen and a warm welcome to every table.

Olivier first cooked here from 2011 to 2017. Today, his menu returns to the dishes people travel for: rich cassoulet, coq au vin, duck confit and proper tarte Tatin—generous, assured and unmistakably French.
