OUR HOSPITALITY
Walnut Hill College has focused on educating students in the art of classic French cuisine since it was founded in 1974. From beef bourguignon to crème brûlée, our students have learned the techniques and flavors of France, and we are delighted to showcase their talents at our new signature French restaurant, Bistro Perrier.
Bistro Perrier is set in our European Courtyard, which features charming cobblestone paths, an intimate, indoor rooftop deck, and an outdoor dining terrace. This quaint and relaxed atmosphere serves as the perfect backdrop for a bistro-style dining experience. We want our guests to feel at home as they enjoy delicious food and wine with friends and family over a long dinner, much like one would at a bistro in the heart of Paris.
