About Us
Welcome to Rouge Bar & Bistro, where French elegance meets Finnish charm in the heart of Joensuu. Nestled in a historic wooden building, our wine bar offers a curated selection of organic wines from family-owned vineyards. Our expert team crafts personalized recommendations, ensuring each glass tells its own story. Pair your wine with artisan cheese and charcuterie, and immerse yourself in an atmosphere filled with French and classic American music.
Our establishment was founded by Chris Guriou, who moved from France many years ago, bringing with him a passion for exquisite cuisine and hospitality. Chris grew up surrounded by rich culinary traditions and developed a love for gastronomy from an early age. After moving to Finland, he dreamed of creating a place that would combine French elegance with Finnish warmth. Thus, Rouge Bar & Bistro was born — a place where every guest can enjoy authentic dishes, fine wines, and a cozy atmosphere.
Our menu reflects the best traditions of French cuisine, adapted to incorporate local ingredients and flavors. We take pride in offering our guests a unique experience that blends two cultures. At Rouge, every visit is a celebration of taste, style, and hospitality.
Come and feel the warmth and passion that Chris pours into every dish and every moment spent at Rouge Bar & Bistro.
