Stéphane and Philippe moved here from France just 5 years ago, and opened The Marquise Café in November 2019. Prior to moving here, Stéphane spent more than ten years teaching in French Guiana, where she was a teacher of the culinary arts. Then, she and Philippe decided to move to Florida to open up their own establishment. Stéphane was born in Britanny, France and she met Philippe during her time in the French Guiana, where he was born. Opening a restaurant is always a challenge, however opening one prior to the global pandemic is an even bigger one, and through adversity and perseverance The Marquise Café prevailed, and has been giving the people in the St.Pete area a true authentic French experience ever since. With a cozy atmosphere, pastries and breads imported from France, we hope that our little café can give you a different change of pace from the normal type of dining you might be used to. We offer Dinner, as well as brunch throughout the week and on weekends also, check out some of the dishes we offer on our menu pages and we hope to see you soon!
