We are here earlier in the year and were keen to revisit . The restaurant is in the promenade overlooking the Somme river . A trendy area. The food is fantastic, very French but different. We had delicious starters of razor clams and escargots . Delicious! Mains were roast pork, steaks and local stews. Again great. What really makes this place is the atmosphere , very funky. Customers mostly locals and many musicians. We are on a Saturday and there was live music from a great guitarist and two lady singers who switched easily between soft jazz ,Piaf , Bob Marley, Bob Dylan and more . They were frequently joined by very accomplished artists also eating there. In conversation with a local he offered that La Bistouille is the heart of the music scene in Amiens. That is easy to believe. The charming lady owner is very visible and her staff are very personable , funny and welcoming.Again the food is great, their own Calvados based cocktail slips down far too easily and is dangerous . If in Amiens don't miss this opportunity. We ended up dancing by the river with Madam and joining in the choruses .We had a fantastic evening of food and entertainment the memory of which will stay with us till our next visit. A big thank you to all . If only eating out could always be this much fun
