Haig Rd Bistro

Updated: Sep 30, 2025

Haig Rd Bistro is a charming French bistro that brings a delectable taste of Alsace to a colonial Auchenflower cottage.

The chic, cosy dining room has polished timber floors, modernist furniture, a mosaic tiled bar, coloured glass windows, potted plants and a sheer curtain which can section off the back space for private dining/functions.

The menu features a delicious variety of traditional French dishes including the Alsatian house specialty, Tarte Flambee (Flammekueche) which is a must-try. Tarte Flambee is like a super thin crust (yeast-free) cheese pizza with various toppings (including ratatouille, St Jacques, provencale and gratinee) that is melt-in-the-mouth and perfect for sharing.
