Le dîner des Trois Empereurs or Three Emperors Dinner was a meal held at Café Anglais in Paris, France in 1867.

It was prepared by chef Adolphe Dugléré at the request of King William I of Prussia who frequented the cafe during the Exposition Universelle. He requested a meal to be remembered for himself and his guests, Tsar Alexander II of Russia, his son the Tsarevich (later Tsar Alexander III) and Otto von Bismarck.

The meal was held on the evening of 7 June 1867. It consisted of 16 courses with eight wines served over eight hours.
