A bitterly cold evening but a lovely warm atmosphere, coupled with delicious food! We've been here before & we've never been disappointed. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fine dining experience. More

Like a lot of things in Leura, this place took itself just a little bit too seriously. We visited on Anzac day so the place was packed and we'd tried a number of other cafes further up the street but they were all full. I had been curious about Cafe Bon Ton and there were a few spare tables so... More

This is a delightful place to dine, what with an elderly gentleman waiter, happy waitresses, and excellent chef and a very accommodating and helpful manager, nothing could go wrong. Indeed, our meals were excellent, steak cooked to our liking, and the wines even better! Despite being busy, the manager took time to provide us with some useful area information once... More

I blame myself really as I have eaten here before and it's overpriced, the service is slow, and the prices are shocking. Went in here with my wife and adult children for a simple late afternoon meal as the rest of Leura was packed. Bon Ton was almost empty, which is never a good sign. We're seated quickly with no...

This is the second time I've eaten here and both my girlfriend and I loved the meal. The dinner and desert were both excellent and we enjoyed the complimentary appetizer. The atmosphere was good, particularly as it wasn't crowded for a Thursday night. I found the service staff very helpful and informative. More

I was very hungry when I ventured out to dinner in Leura around 7:15pm. Every restaurant on main street was closed and saw Bon Ton open. It looked adorable from the outside so I ventured in. The wine list was reasonable and the interior was quaint and cozy. When I glanced at the food menu, I got a little bit... More

The chef (or owner?) had worked in France and you could taste his rich experience. We paid for two (with two glasses of wine) $100 - not cheap but price/quality relation was correct. More

Meals were ordinary and nothing exciting. Service was slow. Not enough staff. We did get a complimentary appetiser though. More

Popped in for an early evening meal on my birthday. We had baby with us but there high chair didn't work. Service was attentive but awkward. Food overpriced. Fish soup was an entree and nearly $30 but was salty. I couldn't finish it. My husbands pasta was okay. Angel hair with seafood cream sauce. But they garnished it with balsamic... More

The cafe is just off the main strip and there is a lovely but tree and courtyard where you can sit outside. The food options were a bit pricey but there were a few options and all day breakfast. The food was good and well presented. A suggestion is to ban smoking outside as it was a bit overwhelming. More
