Monsieur Marcel Bistro

Run by a Frenchman and his wife who couldn't find their favorite cheese, this long-running gourmet market and casual eatery is one of our favorite vendors at the Original Farmers Market (next to the Grove). In the winter, Monsieur Marcel offers cozy, gooey plates of raclette cheese, but the open-air bistro's solid lunch plates and slightly dressy dinner menu are our casual Mid-City go-to every day of the year. Try their quiche lorraine, beef bourignon or build your cheese and charcuterie plates for best results.
