Menu
The menu of Bistro Vieux Hilversum reflects the soul of French cuisine.
Many of our dishes have a long preparation time, which means they cannot always be adjusted upon request. Do you have any allergies? Please ask our staff about the possibilities.
We exclusively offer a carefully crafted three-course menu, which can be expanded with a fourth course. For children (up to 12 years), we serve the same dishes as a smaller portion, if possible.
3-course menu at €45 per person (extra appetizer + €9.50)
3-course children’s menu (up to 12 years) for 22.00
