Seasonal dining in Stratford
Dining at Bijou at the Church
Welcome to a refreshed vision of casual fine dining in the heart of Stratford. Housed within a meticulously preserved 19th-century church at 70 Brunswick Street, our dining room seamlessly marries dramatic historical architecture with a warm, welcoming neighbourhood atmosphere.
Our Culinary Philosophy
Locally inspired and theatre-aware
Bijou has long been part of Stratford's dining life, known for a thoughtful relationship with seasonal ingredients, wine, theatre visitors, and special-occasion meals. Bijou at the Church carries that hospitality into a setting with more room for dining, celebration, and cultural evenings.
Whether you are joining us for an expertly paced pre-theatre evening, celebrating a special occasion, or settling in for an unhurried night around the table, our space is designed to make every meal memorable, and our kitchen presents a seasonally inspired menu that celebrates the rich bounty of our local landscape.
Elevated comfort
Our dishes balance refined, chef-driven execution with approachable, soul-satisfying flavours that honour our 27-year culinary legacy.
Seasonally driven
The menu shifts alongside the local harvest, ensuring that every visit highlights fresh, peak-season ingredients at their absolute best.
Shaped for Your Evening
Designed to complement your unique Stratford experience
