If there was an award for “Local’s Favorite Gathering Place” in Carmel, The Village Corner Carmel Bistro would be the sure winner! Located in the heart of Carmel, on picture-perfect Dolores and Sixth streets, this charming indoor-outdoor Mediterranean-style bistro has been a consistent gathering place for locals and visiting celebrities alike for over 60 years!
OPEN EVERY DAY for breakfast or lunch. Dinner is served Wednesday – Saturday. Enjoy world-class, bistro-style cuisine “Carmel Style” from the lush garden patio or tastefully appointed indoors.
For visitors, this Carmel landmark is a must!
This charming bistro is reminiscent of the south of France, with its warm, sunny yellow walls, spacious flower-rimmed patio and outdoor fireplace. A long-time local favorite, it is truly the essence of Carmel: tasteful, charming and lively. It’s a place where you can sit back and enjoy the pleasures of Carmel that go gently wafting by. Add in the mouth-watering aromas of Euro-Mediterranean and California-style cuisine for a tempting combination.
Appetizers range from sautéed asparagus with morel mushrooms and oyster sauce, to delicious lobster ravioli with tomato-leek compote, or assorted bruschetta on grilled sourdough.
Don’t miss Desserts! A favorite is the hazelnut chocolate mousse cake – or something equally decadent – and plenty of espresso, cappuccino and latte. Traveling wine aficionados, don’t miss the all-Monterey County wine list, the only one of its kind in the area. Equally sumptuous for breakfast or lunch.
