La Jupe in Argyll & Bute

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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.

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!

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

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

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!

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

Great service hot chocolate amazing

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

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.

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

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

Cafe bistro great selection of wines Good choice of food we shared two of the platters and they were very good .

It's a very friendly and relaxed place, the staff knowledge is very good too, especially to help guide someone like myself who doesn't know much about wine! There's a good selection of beers and wines, along with classic cocktails for multiple people. Highly recommend.

What a delight to stop off at La Jupe in Helensburgh for lunch. The French inspired plates were delicious and our host Julien was both charming and welcoming. It was meant to be a quick stop but I went back to the parking meter to...

Loved the food. Excellent staff.

A lovely little place in the heart of Helensburgh. My wife and I always pop in for a drink on the rare occasion we get a night away from the kids. The staff are always very helpful, knowledgeable about the wide variety of drinks they offer and always ready to offer suggestions based on my likes.

Had an A star time on Easter Sunday listening to some amazingly talented musicians playing jazz whilst sipping cocktails, have a few nibbles and enjoying a great atmosphere with friends. La Jupe is a really special place.

Please put the heating on its freezing

Love this place,very relaxed atmosphere

Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the wine selection was great. Food was also very tasty

Love this place. Small without being overly noisy, even when busy, and a nice view across the Clyde (when the weather allows). A good selection of wines, beers, and cocktails, and the coffee is good too. They have a good selection of meats & cheese, but it's the crepes that have me going back every week.

Friendly place, the coffee and crepes were amazing.

What an amazing wee place!! Great atmosphere, great staff, what a location looking out over the water. Amazing selection of drinks, really cant recommend highly enough, my favourite place.

Our second visit to this great wee french cafe/bar,we first visited a month before the pandemic took off,great atmosphere with friendly and welcoming staff,the food was brill with good choices of sharing platters,toasties and crêpes with fantastic fillings to choose from,the french meats and cheeses went down a treat,we had a table by a window so,we could watch the world go by as we enjoyed our meal, we'll be back 👍.

Nice bar and staff. Sadly we picked the wrong wine, our fault. We'll definitely go back.

Lovely place, nice atmosphere, just a pity our toasties were on white pan bread as the contents were very tasty and a salad rather than tortilla chips might have been nicer. 🙂

Great wine list, excellent staff very friendly

Limited menu cold meats and cheeses. Only problem 6 slice of bread 2 portions of butter. Was charged 80p for extra portion. Could have went to supermarket and bought for less.

It was a beautiful day and it we were lucky enough to get a table outside to sit and people watch. Prices I thought were very good.

We visited a busy Saturday evening a few weeks after lockdown had eased. Even though we hadn’t booked they managed to find us a lovely table in the window for a pre dinner drink. The bar was adhering to all covid guidelines. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and great choice of drinks.

Love La Jupe. Hang the expense, it's a brilliant place to scupper wine and cheese!

Nice place to go for some decent drinks and plates of appetisers with very good, friendly staff. Only downside is very noisy when as busy as it was when we went.

Our evening was spectacular until we were settling up and one of our group nudged a glass which in turn smashed on the floor. This is when things sadly took a downward turn and we were being asked to foot the bill for said smashed glass,which we wouldn't have had an issue with if our server Siobhan or Sophie wasn’t so obnoxious and down right rude to our whole party about the situation. We tried to explained you simply cannot serve food, champagne, coffee and other drinks to a magazine holder which we were all sat around, the magazine holder was around 30cm in diameter and 60cm in length. The argument between our server and our party lasted a whole of 10 minutes and we were told to and I quote “pay and leave as you lot are disrupting the whole establishment”That issue aside, being the general manager of a restaurant, it is virtually impossible to run an establishment of this kind and not expect to have smashed glasses and crockery etc then demanding your patrons to pay for it.. I’d also advise some serious staff training as the level of service we received from our server was absolutely diabolical which leaves a bitter taste in our mouth and for that reason probably won’t return which is sad as this was a much sought after place for us all.

Superb wines and food along with the most excellent staff! Will be back and can highly recommend.

I loved this restaurant. Fantastic food and drink. The staff were super too!

A lovely place Excellent tapas like cheeses and meat platters and good selection of wines and beers. Dog friendly and friendly staff. Our newest discovery. We've been 3 x times in 10 days. Take binoculars for the views across the water to Greenock.

Lovely bistro staff are very polite and welcoming.We opted for the Platter of cheeses & meats that comes with a basket of sourdough bread.Very tasty and ample for 3.We had lovely wine and they have a great range to choose from. Lovely lattes too mines wasn’t hot hot and when I asked for a small jug of hot water they insisted on making a hotter latte instead. Nice touch I thought.Place is spotless as are the toilets. Full marks for everyone working here they are very hospitable and what a joy to be transported to France/Paris in a bleak wet day in Helensburgh.I can’t wait to go back when the live jazz bands are on.

Great place for coffee, cake, assiettes, wine and variety of Belgian beer. Very friendly staff. Can drink outside with heaters and throws. Will be back to try cheese and wine

What a great cafe just opposite the esplanade. Very friendly helpful staff, very clean and beautifully furnished and decorated Italian style. My wife and I popped in for a coffee and cake which was delicious. They observed the Covid rules strictly and took track and trace information. Would highly recommend.

La Jupe is the perfect place for a coffee or wine and some continental nibbles. The guy that runs it is very passionate about his cheese and wine. Try the gorgonzola. Mmmm, mmmm, mmm.

Lovely staff. Great service. Will certainly be back.

Very clean Covid-19 aware. Really great Refreshingly French food 👍😘😘

The place for quality wine from budget to expensive , joined with interesting tasting platters . Cheese and Wine combo

Lovely, great wine, friendly staff
