St Tropez Bistro has been an integral piece of the Downtown Saskatoon dining scene since 1979. Originally located on Third Avenue South .. in 1998 the restaurant moved to this historic building on Second Avenue South, formally known as the Hanson Building & home to the first Saskatoon branch of the Bank Of Nova Scotia. With over 115 years of character & charm, our little building has been the perfect home for The Bistro.
With a focus on always using fresh & local whenever possible .. since 1999 second generation owner, Jason, has been growing a garden here on the rooftop of the Bistro. What was once a few pots of herbs .. has grown to include a greenhouse where all of the seedlings are started & large containers of Heirloom Tomatoes, Squash, Herbs, Peppers, Beans & Edible Flowers
In 2015 the Rooftop Garden expanded with the purchase of some land southwest of Saskatoon along the South Saskatchewan River. It is there that Jason & his partner Cher, spend days off gardening, foraging & taking in a prairie sunset or two. In 2019 .. with a love for crafty cocktails & unique whiskies .. Parlor came to be on the 2nd floor of The Bistro building.
Our ethos is inspired by life on the prairies & influenced by what grows in our gardens.
