Family Run, French Inspired Cafe Bistro
La Madeleine has been run by a family team since October 2016.
Ed Pitts one of the owners and Head Chef was delighted to take on such an amazing venue; “Ever since I’ve been cooking I’ve dreamed about running my own place, so to get that opportunity with La Madeleine is everything I could have wanted; we put the emphasis firmly on great food and drink, served by friendly passionate staff”
French cuisine is the starting point for the menu, whether breakfast, lunch or supper but it is a fluid style and borrows influences from many other parts of the world to create a vibrant modern menu. The evening supper menu is a small, regularly changing one that is governed by seasonality and the great produce that Herefordshire and the surrounding area has to offer.
The staff go to great lengths to create a relaxing, welcoming environment in which to sample the food on offer alongside expertly made coffees, local beers, ciders and spirits as well as their extensive organic wine list.
Summer is when La Madeleine really comes into its own as the garden is an oasis, where you can forget that you are in the heart of the city; Whether that’s in the daytime with breakfast, lunch or with a slice of delicious homemade cake; or by taking advantage of the warm summer nights and dining al fresco by candlelight.
