A reflective bistable nematic liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal cell and a reflector provided on a side of the liquid crystal cell opposite to an observer side, with a transmissive adhesive layer interposed therebetween. The liquid crystal cell includes a pair of substrates opposite to each other, with a nematic liquid crystal layer in which a chiral agent is added therebetween, in which one of the pair of substrates has an alignment film with strong anchoring energy and the other has an alignment film with weak anchoring energy. The alignment film having the weak anchoring energy has anchoring energy smaller than half of that of the alignment film having strong anchoring energy and has a pre-tilt angle of about 0°.
