Reservations are not required, but are highly recommended as we do fill up. When you arrive at The Bistro, the winding walkway down to our timber-framed, blufftop building is a scenic journey that will transport you from the hustle and bustle, welcoming you to experience the best Missouri’s landscape has to offer.
If you or any of your guests need a more accessible way to enter, there is a service drive leading to accessible parking to the left when you enter our parking lot. This area works well for a drop off and pick up location as well.
The Blufftop at Rocheport offers several locations to experience. Not all of our properties are within walking distance of each other. The famous Katy Trail is accessible from The Bistro’s service road via a tree-lined hiking path. Trailgoers are welcome to come as they are for a refreshing glass of wine at The A-Frame Winegarden or to refuel with a meal at The Bistro. We do not have a dress code.
