La Boucherie, French barbecue restaurant in Colmar, France
La Boucherie is a restaurant in Colmar that merges the look and feel of a traditional butcher shop with dining areas, featuring tiled walls and displays showing pricing information throughout. The interior is designed to recall an old-style butchery, with clean and functional elements organizing the space in a simple way.
The restaurant was founded in 1974 by a professional butcher and grew into a network focused on quality meat preparation. This commitment to craft and traditional French cooking methods has shaped the concept from the beginning.
Staff members wear traditional butcher aprons and use Louchébem, the classic language of French butchers, keeping craft traditions alive in the dining space. These practices connect diners with centuries of meat-working heritage in a natural, everyday way.
The restaurant is open Monday through Thursday until 22:00 and extends hours to 22:30 on weekends, with a special menu for children available. It is easy to reach by public transport and provides a relaxed setting suitable for groups of any size.
A life-sized cow statue named Marguerite stands at the entrance, giving the restaurant a playful character. The kitchen sources meat from the Montbéliarde cattle breed, a local French breed with deep roots in the region.
