Winstub
A traditional Alsatian restaurant for more than 150 years
Created by Eugène Jacquemet, the restaurant opened its doors in 1873 under the name ‘S’Burjerstuewel’. In 1956, the restaurant changed its name to ‘Chez Yvonne’ after its new owner, Yvonne Haller. A well-known figure in the Alsatian capital, she gradually built up the restaurant’s reputation. In 2001, she handed over the reins to Jean-Louis de Valmigère, who preserved the soul of the place and its reputation. His children will take over until 2021.
They will be succeeded by the Burrus family, who are determined to preserve the heritage and tradition of this Alsatian wine bar. An emblematic restaurant with a unique atmosphere, Chez Yvonne has kept its soul over the years and remains a Strasbourg institution.
Chez Yvonne, Strasbourg's most famous wine bar
Famous for having hosted Jacques Chirac and his German and Russian counterparts on several occasions, the restaurant regularly welcomes leading figures from the world of politics and culture.
As well as the celebrities who pass through its doors, the restaurant is also renowned for the quality of its traditional dishes, which are appreciated by all gourmets. It has also been awarded a Bib Gourmand by the Michelin Guide for two consecutive years.
