Our story

A Rosedale staple for 30 years.

30Years in
the neighbourhood

For three decades, Brownes Bistro has welcomed Rosedale neighbours and diners from across Toronto to its intimate tables.

The classic bistro menu pays homage to French cuisine, alongside fresh creations conceived daily. Warm hardwood, oak panelling and crisp linens create an unmistakably European ambience, while a thoughtful wine selection completes the experience.

Sophisticated fare, warm hospitality and a low-key Yonge Street setting have kept Brownes Bistro a cherished neighbourhood destination.
