It looks like the former Chapeau space at 1406 Clement near 15th Avenue is readying to re-open as Belle Epoque. The rumor is that Chapeau’s owner, Philippe Gardelle, will re-open the space as a small wine bar. They applied for a liquor license this week.
Grub Street SF reports that “via Zagat’s reports from last fall, we know that Gardelle will be serving an international list of wines along with French small plates, with just five tables and a few seats at the bar.”
As you may recall, Gardelle moved Chapeau to 126 Clement last year, where it quickly regained its 3 out of 4 stars from the Chronicle.

I actually heard this space was being taken over by the people behind Internos Wine Bar (Geary at Parker)… Either way, I’m stoked for a wine bar to come to the Outer Richmond!
