La Jupe in Argyll & Bute

Tried some German beer? really nice staff thanks guys ☺️

Nice spot for some wine and charcuterie board.

Lovely savoury Crepes and baguettes. Great charcuterie selection. The beer and wine list is extensive with the staff showing an in depth knowledge of their cellar.

La Jupe is a marvel of Helensburgh. The ambience from decor to overall vibe is not only inviting but a comfort to experience. A little piece of France on the front From their lovely coffees to beautiful cocktails (some of which are zeal projects by the wonderful aimée) the staff are enthusiastic, polite and genuine friends, to the extent I struggle to walk by. Their menu is built from a serious passion that can only be observed with the upmost admiration. I love the place and will certainly be visiting regularly. I wish I could give 6 stars.

First visit & not our last. Reasonably quiet Saturday night but I booked a table just in case. Great service & drinks were reasonably priced bottle of Helles was £6 & cocktails were £8.50-£9 so a bit cheaper than Glasgow. Probably try their nibbles next time.

Great place to spend a relaxing afternoon or evening with friends. Good wine and excellent food plates of fresh meats, cheese and bread. Great staff

Excellent choice of fine wines, calm and cosy atmosphere with beautiful views across the Clyde Estuary. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff.

Great cheese board love the customisation our server Caitlin was great always smiling belter of a server. Will definitely be coming again.

Great food, great drinks and great service from such a friendly team. One of my favourite places to visit

I’m writing this review as I’m always incredibly frustrated when I visit La Jupe, it has the makings of a fantastic wee spot in Helensburgh but I always leave disappointed- it could be so much better with very little effort. The cocktails are always awful and are severely overpriced so l’ve stopped ordering them. Cocktail training is required as even the classics are poorly made and the balance is never correct. It’s always freezing!!! I get that it’s quite a big space but put the heating on please! The service is hit or miss depending on who you get on shift. Where did the French dude go? He was amazing! Great in the summer for a glass of wine and a nibble but there are definite areas of improvement required.

The best wine bar in Helensburgh by far!! After we saw recommendations of wine on their social media we couldn’t resist coming in. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable, highly recommended to everyone. Added bonus of its dog friendly.

Went in with my girlies for a cocktail night, and the unbelievably unreal service we received was much appreciated. Everyone is so knowledgeable on their wines and helped my gal pals pick one perfect for them. Definitely would come back every girls night. Thank you🩷

The place was freezing we had to sit with coats on. It took an hour to get the food we ordered even although there were only another 4 people in at the time. We could not have crepes as they had no flour. What we had was of a poor standard and certainly not worth the money. Would not recommend for food the wine was ok. Will not be back.

Totally agree with Fiona F. Poor selection of Festive Cocktails. Had ran out of ingredients for cocktails which shows pretty poor organisation ahead of a busy festive period, not to mention they have started to add on a 10% service charge! When you are already charging £10 for a cocktail this is ridiculous.

Cocktails were lovely and wll-priced.

Scottish wine bar of the year, what's not to like? Staff are incredibly knowledgeable. Wasn't sure what to have and they recommended great cocktails and made a unique one to suit me! (P.s. Abi is an absolute hoot!) I then moved on to the great selection of Bavarian beers and my partner had some more of the fantastic cocktails. Food was also absolutely delightful. If you can, you should visit this gem. There's something for everyone!

La Jupe - I'm so very disappointed. Ordered a cocktail from the Festive Menu (no prices on the menu!!) and told it wasn't available. I asked for a menu of "normal" cocktails - I was told they don't have one ( quote " we are focusing on the Festive Menu") and I should just order what flavour I'd like - how do I know what I want without seeing what's on offer? I ordered a Margherita - all the salt was in the bottom of the glass. Ordered a Singapore Sling - was told they couldn't make that. Asked for a gin based cocktail - they couldn't suggest anything. When I pointed out that not everyone knows all the ingredients of various cocktails I was told by the staff that I could Google it!!

La Jupe has been a firm favourite ever since they opened. Relaxing place to come with good company for wine, cocktails and meat and cheese boards. A firm favourite and must visit if your ever in Helensburgh. Many a happy afternoon and evening have been spent in this place! Great staff. Great place to go with friends and more recently, with my 82 year old Mum, who reminisces about family holidays, good wine and great company.

Very different from other bars In Helensburgh, the knowledge of the staff to help chose is first class, theam days and evenings are fun. Jazz events are fantastic, booking is a must for this.

Nice surroundings and very pleasant staff. Didn't buy any food only a few coffees. Got a few pieces of tablet which was home made and 😋 Unfortunately not for sale.

gorgeous bar at the water front with friendly local staff who make a mean old fashioned

I was there for a 7 course paring menu. The food was amazing! The atmosphere is lovely, as are the staff. I felt so relaxed and had an amazing time .

Knowable Friendly staff good food excellent wine and beer, wonderful atmosphere .

Absolutely delightful place to eat on a lovely sunny day on seafront. Staff very helpful and pleasant. Food and wine just delicious. Will definitely return.

This place is such a special gem in Helensburgh. We were so lucky to host a birthday party here and Siobhan and the team made this such a seamless and thoughtful process, with a bespoke cocktail creation, gorgeous food and amazing service. La Jupe is one of the best places for cocktails, atmosphere and charm in Scotland.

We had an amazing evening at La Jupe - very nice team, atmosphere and place. Hope we have a chance to visit again soon !

Popped in with my wife for a drink. We ended up having a snack too.Staff very accommodating and helpful.

This was our first visit to this lovely Mediterranean style wine bar/restaurant/coffee shop. Situated on the river estuary front at West Clyde St Helensburgh,this is a great place that you can use for any of the above purposes.On good weather days,like today the outside pavement tables are a suntrap with beautiful views toward the rosneath peninsula. The menu is exciting with Spanish style meat and cheese platters, a vast array of fish dishes,toasties, crepes etc.and there are daily specials.The staff are all lovely friendly girls who will help you with your choice from their large selection of fine wines and many other drinks. On the last weekend of each month there is live music.Today we had amazing chai latte which is hard to find along with some excellent cakes. I thoroughly recommend this place for a relaxing time enjoying great food and drinks, when you are visiting Helensburgh.😊

The most amazing place for wine, food & sunset views! Feels like I’ve been tele transported to France. Great and extensive wine list, not to be missed!

un'altra fantastica esperienza a La Jupe! Personale fantastico, vini meravigliosi, sì, era affollato MA prendetevi il vostro tempo e godetevi il vostro vino in un piccolo angolo di paradiso europeo! 🇮🇹🇮🇹 (garibaldi)

Stopped off on Sunday for a drink. Sat outside enjoying the sun. Not too bad on price staff seemed friendly enough. Would certainly return.

I had seen this restaurant before but never had an opportunity to experience it . Today , we went in for a Sunday evening of fun . The cheese and meats platter was very European and we finally settled for the Spanish combo . What an absolute delight . Accompanied firstly with an excellent Spanish Orange wine ( or 2 ) and then on to the cocktail menu . What an incredible evening watching the sun slowly descend over the Clyde as a spectacle selection of the finest cocktails arrived and were enjoyed . . Finally , to put a cap on the frivolity , we had two wonderful coffees and settled the bill . Truly my favourite place in Helensburgh right now . Don’t change guys . You are killing it .👍😎👌 Thank you all very much for a most wonderful evening .

We walked into this little gem without a booking & we were glad we did. Oh the cheeses, cured meats, bread, olives & oatcakes were so good on the cold platter. My favourite by far was the fabulous cherry beer. The staff were very friendly & made u feel at ease. Highly recommended, don't walk past!

I was in for after dinner cocktails with my girlies and i was served by Abi. This girl is absolutely incredible. Never had customer service so great in all my life. Go Abi! Definitely felt the booze after that😘 she knows how to make a great cocktail🍸.

Went in mainly because the sun was out and La Jupe had outside seating, was pleasantly surprised with the menu. Ordered beer and coffee which were both great, we then selected bread, cheese, meat, pate and chutney as a sharing board from a large selection, everything on the plate was wonderful, top notch food. Well worth a visit, staff very friendly and welcoming, facilities very good.

wonderful cocktails and amazing service from Richard :)

The wine and atmosphere, service is good. But the charcuterie was terrible for its price, served like at grandma's house. Not worth it.

Lovely food. Portions a bit on the small side.

It's a lovely wine bar but could turn up the heating it was a cold day outside and inside not pleasant if you are eating in it couldn't take off my jacket

Wandered in on a whim having driven into Helensburgh and loved the atmosphere, the staff and the food. It was a surprising gem and would recommend the croque Madame. Would love to come back and sample the wine menu and charcuterie / cheese boards next time

Ten out of ten - cannot fault it. The best crepes and cocktails outside of Europe. Wonderful stuff and beautiful decor too.

A great little wine bar and a must when in Helensburgh. My second visit and certainly won't be the last. A large selection of great wine and cocktails, brilliant food at very reasonable prices. The cocktails were made perfectly and the food was made with good quality ingredients. All the staff are great, very polite and helpful. Dog friendly also 🐶 Such a great place to chill with a nice glass of wine looking out the window taking in the view of the Clyde estuary. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My one and only experience of La Jupe was very good. Great service and a great atmosphere meant we had a great time. We will definitely be revisiting!

When planning out trip to Helensburgh I saw this restaurant on Trip Advisor and was a little apprehensive as it's not normally the kind of place I would go to but I booked it to try something different, I'm glad I did! The staff were very helpful and friendly, the food was awesome, we had the La rustique and nachos, and the wine complimented both perfectly. The nachos were the best I've ever had and the tomato chutney with the La rustique was excellent as were the cheeses, meats and pate. The music was great as was the atmosphere but it did get a bit loud at one point with all the chat going on but I didn't mine that. A must try if going to Helensburgh especlally if you like good wine or like my wife enjoy a great cocktail.

Called in today whilst visiting the town on our annual Scotland holiday. We picked this bar at random and so glad we did as we walked in and received such a lovely warm welcome from the waitress. Our dogs were as welcome as we were! The menu looked amazing so much choice of French plates and cheeses. So much choice!!! I ended up with a selection of cheeses and a liqueur coffee, my partner had a crepe and a tea. Lovely food and great service from all the staff. Would have loved to stayed a few more hours and worked our way through the menu! Would definitely recommend to others visiting the very pretty town of Helensburgh!

My favourite place to go for an evening out, I can recommend a mocktail if you're driving or doing dry January. All the staff are knowledgeable & professional but, great friends too. They welcome dogs with open arms, treats & water.

What a great 007 themed Hogmanay. The staff worked their socks off and were amazing.

Went to la Jupe's Christmas carols ... great atmosphere and exceptional service from the team!

It was a flying visit unfortunately but so pleased we finally went. Lovely glass of a quality Provençal Rose. My friend had a pint of Loch Fyne lager. Friendly service and a perfect ambiance

As always, a great evening out, lovely selection of cheeses, good wine and very pleasant service - some of the company had t bee before and were very happy with the choice of venue

An amazing spot, the wine list is fantastic and the service was great, we were looked after by a delightful French man with some stellar suggestions for wines. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

Really good service and a wonderful menu, I love the idea of creating your own charcuterie board!

Went in and to be fare it was busy but as we waited for half an hour it became quieter and yet still no drinks. Someone did come to apologise for the wait but no info on how long it would be. Ended up walking out and went to another pub

Came here yesterday for some crepes and just had to leave a review. The 3 girls on service were so bubbly and friendly. They also had a lovely rapport with each other - happy staff equals happy customers. The chef also came out with our food and he was so nice as well and the food was delicious! I felt in such good spirits afterwards having had a lovely experience. Well done La Jupe!

Lovely french cheese, meats and crepes. French wines . In this bistro looking out to firth of Clyde.

Staff were really friendly, drinks and food were really good plus the atmosphere inside felt very authentic. Bonus was they had vegan cheese for my better half! Would visit again.

Disappointing experience. Ordered 5 drinks. 4 drinks arrived. Two were incorrect and then brought the 5th. Quite unorganised

What a great find - service superb with an offer to taste a sample of the wine first which swung it for me Charcuterie was excellent and glass of red @ rose we had complimented it perfectly Definitely a place to visit for service/ atmosphere & a chilled vibe Recommend 👍

We had a lovely relaxing break with a cup of coffee sitting outside the front in the sunshine. Very nice place.

Very cool place, the assiettes are big enough for two with nice cheese and charcuterie options, the pastry of the sausage roll was buttery and flaky really nice, the crepes was nice too…the owner/manager was very friendly and relax, also, is a dog friendly place

The friendliest staff and a lovely atmosphere, one of the few places to meet as a group of women and feel safe & comfortable!

Great service and atmosphere as is usual. Staff were very accommodating and served us an assiette after last orders for food. Wines and other drinks lovely as always.

Beautiful food, beautiful coffee, lovely service, lovely vibes 🙂

Great place for weekend lunch- wide range of good value wines and really good sharing plates. Lovely friendly service too.

Waited ages on food, and it was only a snack I ordered, worst mojito I've ever had

Had a lovely afternoon here. Relaxed atmosphere, great wine and snacks. Very enjoyable and will be back. Thank you.

Great place for weekend lunch- wide range of good value wines and really good sharing plates. Lovely friendly service too.

Lovely atmosphere, nice plate of cheese and meats to share and very nice house wine making for a perfect afternoon out for mother and daughter catch up.

Love la jupe, mine and my partners little escape to feeling like we're in France after a busy week at work. Staff are so knowledgeable on wine and make fabulous recommendations. Recently noticed an increase in vegan options on the menu which is great to see, they cater for all!! LA JUPE IS A MUST WHEN VISITING HELENSBURGH THIS SUMMER.

Loved the continental ambience, had a very relaxed lunch and went back for cocktails in the evening when the place was buzzing. Staff were first class and like many wish there was such a place in my hometown.

Great cocktails Fab music, lovely atmosphere and great staff

First time l have been in friendly staff and they sell real ale I will be in again one day

Have loved this place since they first opened.. Such a chill, friendly vibe, always got great tunes on, and the dogs are soooo welcomed. Came down for a night of live folky music and the atmosphere was brilliant, as well as the tunes. Excited that they're having regular singer-songwriters in, as well as their jazzzzz. Oh and the drinks are tasty too!

Fabulous friendly place to go and relax with friends and helpful staff on hand to advise if you’re not sure of wines. Didn’t have food on this occasion but have heard good reports from people who have eaten there.

Lovely cafe bar. Delicious french food plates. Choices of cheese,pate, sausages. Staff are superb. Wonderful welcome and chat. Definitely return.

Second time trying out this bar and we were as delighted as the first. Stopped for a glass of wine in the sunshine after a walk in from rhu! Ladies that were on were really nice and cheery too. Becoming a favourite of ours

Went for a drive to Balloch and Helensburgh. Decided to go for a glass of wine and soft drink for hubby (driving). Walked along the sea front and found this delightful place. We were very lucky to get a table as we hadn’t booked. Had...

First time visiting this cafe on Easter Sunday and we weren’t disappointed. Recently moved to the area and think we’ve found a favourite. Enjoyed a plate of meats and cheeses and some glasses of wine. The food was presented lovely and was very fresh, the...

Lovely afternoon with friends enjoying good wine food and ambience We had the sunday deal of 500ml carafe wine with brie and bread Wine delicious as was a generous piece of brie. Would just have liked a few grapes

La Jupe is a wonderful little wine bar, delightful decor, interesting varied music and an absolutely fantastic choice of wines which are excellent value for money. Wish I had a similar establishment in my home town

Great service hot chocolate amazing

Decent little wine bar, wish I had this in my hometown!

We found it very loud and noisy,might just be the acoustics and we were then handed a 67 pound bill for 2 drinks,a mistake obviously.

On a cold sunny winters day what could be better than an authentic delicious coffee and lunch looking out onto the water sparkling in the sun. What a treat. I’ve also ordered lunch which I know will be delicious because I’ve been here before. The...

Great experience for wine tasting. Very well looked after by Phil. Great wine options, nice environment, and delicious tasting board.

Le Jupe is our favourite wine bar in Helensburgh! GREAT wine, cocktails, snacks, coffee, cheese/meat boards and staff!! Thoroughly enjoy every visit and would 100% recommend

Great wine selection and great music

10/10 Class team, class scran, class drinks - always there.. 🤪 Wine tasting evenings, taco pop ups, crepe brunches - can’t stay away

Felt like I was back in Paris! Staff very accommodating, our host Julien was an absolute delight - unsure if the French accent was authentic or not though. Although it’s advertised as a wine bar - I feel they are also a cocktail bar we...

Great selection of wines, beers and cocktails. Friendly staff. Always a joy to visit

La Jupe translate to 'the skirt; in English. If this place was a skirt it would be very soft and made of nice material. The cocktails here are delicious, and can be found at a fairly modest price point which is refreshing in today's world...

Lovely lunch on a Saturday. Emmental cheese and rosemary ham Toasties, with a side of olives and washed down with a Perrier. Lovely.

Different Beers to choose from, German etc. Which is a change from Tenants Lager.

Nice and busy for Octoberfest , good to see an effort being made

Really enjoy coming here for a few drinks, whether it's a sunny evening outside or some cosy drinks inside! Visited multiple times and its our go to place in Helensburgh for a few drinks.

If you want wine, I mean really decent wine and a great place to sit and also learn about wine .. La Jupe

Decided to take a wee run to Helensburgh for lunch with a view and found La Jupe. Enjoyed a delicious feta pastry and salad (just the right size for a lunchtime) and a freshly made crepe for my other half. Would return to try more...

Enjoyable food and friendly staff. Worth going. 😁

I've been to the jazz sessions at La Jupe a few times now and i can't think of a nicer way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The music was brilliant as always, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is always wonderful. The cheese and...

Popped in for drink before going home, 4hrs later following excellent service, relaxed atmosphere and some new cocktails to taste, we needed a taxi home, thanks for a lovely afternoon, Julienne in particular, what a charmer . Merci
