Mark is amazing (he's the owner) everyone that works there, seems to like their job to where it gives off a family vibe. The food: well where do I begin. Lemon blueberry crepe is my new favorite over the chocolate raspberry. They're delicious brown butter crepes. The lake bake has all the stuff in it. Must try the jalapeño popper sandwich. So many lattes to choose from, oh and a blueberry mule, so yummy! I can go on and on but you just have to see this perfect French town homey restaurant for yourself! It's a must go to place

If you're looking for a local cafe near Main Street, I highly recommend La Belle Vie! It has a cozy ambiance inside with plenty of seating and an outdoor patio. I usually get their avocado toast, which is simple and delicious, or their quiche. I recommend both! We tried a cinnamon roll last visit, my only complaint is that I would've liked it warmed up. (Which they probably could have done if we asked). The service is always fantastic and though it can get busy, I've never had to wait long for my food or coffee.

Food was amazing I loved my toast so much and my friend loved her crepe, the coffee is amazing so much flavor!!!! Service is good you order at the front and the waiter will not disturb you if u are in conversation. The environment is great when I was there, a book club meeting was happening right next to us so you know that people love this place! Will come back again!

Bonjour! We finally got to try this French cafe in French town and it did not disappoint. We visited a few months ago, but there was a long line to order and we didn't have enough time to wait. On this occasion we got in quickly, placed our order and had a wonderful meal. The atmosphere is pretty relaxing and the service was very good. We shared a latte, Monte Cristo crepe, and a quiche Lorraine. It was all cooked well and packed with flavor. The latte was very tasty as well. We will definitely be back to try other French cuisine like the French dip and French onion soup. Desserts looked really good, but we were too full to try any of them.

If I could give La Belle Vie 10 stars, I would not hesitate to do so! Everything about this place is perfect! I go every single Sunday and get a coffee and a new menu item each time and have yet to be disappointed! Each member of the staff is super welcoming and running around to make sure you have a table ready for you as you work through the ordering line. The plants and trees and historic building make for a wonderful, peaceful brunch spot! Make sure to go when you are not in a hurry so you can really take in the special place! I seriously love everything on this menu. The Honey Lavender Latte w/ Oatmilk is my favorite latte I get at a cafe, would highly recommend. I would say the best of the best they have on the menu is the Figgins Sandwich, the Roasted Turkey and Brie, and the Strawberry Avocado salad. You truly cannot go wrong with any options though!

It was so good and the ambience was so good. I wanted to take pictures because I was enjoying being in the restaurant. You have to place your order before you sit down, it's more of a cafe style. I ordered the avocado toast. It was absolutely delightful. My girls both got eggs and bacon and they said it was delicious. Everything was made to order. The staff was very pleasant and great to work with. I highly recommend this location and coming here for any brunch.

Checked out La Belle Vie for brunch this morning with friends. Great atmosphere to relax and enjoy some great food while catching up. Plenty of spaces to grab a seat either to catch up, work, or just read a book and sip some coffee. Service was friendly and consistent. The food at our table included quiche, the hash (had sweet porosities and regular potatoes), country omelet, and the Monte Cristo crepe. Everything had great flavor!! Would recommend it all, but the hash seasoning was a party in your mouth. The coffee and chai were great way to get a morning kick of caffeine. Stop in to check them out in Frenchtown St. Charles, you will not be disappointed.

This is a beautiful cafe! The interior is warm and inviting with plenty of seating. If you go all the way to the back you'll find their beautiful patio and a room with a fire place. They have two beautiful gender neutral bathrooms. Food: We loved the selection and got to sample a good mix of things. I got the pick 2 with the French onion soup and the jalapeño popper sandwich and I loved it. The soup was warm and comforting and loved the cheese pull. The sandwich was hefty and cheesy -- I'm so glad I decided to get the 1/2 sandwich. The rest of my party liked their food but felt the crepe, biscuit w/gravy and the Lake Blake were heavy and lack in flavor. The operation were big and they do have lighter options like salads, soups, and flatbreads so we would probably mix some of these in next time around. The service was great! They have a big menu by the entrance and you can grab a more detailed menu by the entrance that breaks down each item and it's ingredients. You order up front, get a number, and pick your table.

Breakfast dates have become my new go-to! La Belle Vie did not disappoint. The Figgins Breakfast Croissant has egg whites, savory pesto, sun dried tomatoes and spinach. It comes with white cheddar, but I asked for it without. It's absolutely delicious and comes with a side of fruit. The Lake Bake is the ultimate comfort food with a nest of hashbrowns topped with sausage, bacon, and two eggs & cheese. Served with toast and gravy! The lattes were EXACTLY what we hoped they would be. The cinnamon flavors made it feel like the holidays in June. Definitely go here for a great breakfast or lunch. There's also a bar with plugs that's perfect if you need to get some work done while enjoying coffee and a pastry!
