Poppy's French Bistro

“This lovely place was a great little gem we found from a Google search. The food was delicious, well seasoned and well portioned. Ruby, our server was fantastic 👏. Definitely will be coming back. A must try if you are in Collingwood.”

“Absolutely loved our lunch at Poppy’s French Bistro. The atmosphere is beautiful, bright, and cozy with such a charming French bistro feel. The restored building and patio make it one of the nicest lunch spots in Collingwood. The food was outstanding across the board and absolutely worth the wait. The steak was cooked perfectly with an amazing sear and tender center, the gnocchi was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, and the chicken sandwich was fresh and crispy on perfectly toasted bread. Even the fries were excellent. Service was a bit slow during lunch, but honestly the quality of the food made up for it completely. You can tell real care goes into every dish. Easily a 5 star experience and we’ll definitely be back.”

“A phenomenal experience all around. From the moment we sat down to the moment we left, we experienced impeccable customer service and more importantly delicious food. Starter; French Onion Soup & Ceasar salad Main; Jumbo Shrimp in garlic butter and Steak Frites with peppercorn jus Dessert; Baked Alaska And a friend's lobster bisque!”

“A nice bright cozy bistro in the heart of Collingwood, beautiful classic setting, nice selection of wine by the glass, the French Onion Soup was tasty but a bit on the salty side, the Roast Beef Dip sandwich was classic bistro fare, friendly, attentive and helpful staff.”

“Here’s a clean, balanced English review for that one: ⸻ A solid bistro with good food, though nothing particularly outstanding. The dishes were enjoyable and well-prepared, but didn’t quite reach a level that would make it especially memorable. Still, a nice option if you’re looking for a relaxed meal. Service, however, was a bit off during our visit. At one point, our entire section seemed to be forgotten—we didn’t see anyone for about 20 minutes. The restaurant wasn’t particularly busy (around five tables occupied), and staff were gathered at the bar, so it felt a bit unusual. That said, it may very well have been an off moment or just bad timing. Overall, I’d give it 4 stars—good food, but service could use a bit more consistency.”
