French Connection Bistro

Warm and cozy French Bistro in a touristy part of town. Multiple fireplaces running inside on a cold and wet winter day. Our table was in an awkward position up against a wall that required some effort to get into. Service was a bit slow despite not being overly busy. I ordered the daily special Mushroom soup with a cheese baguette toast slice R120. Soup was piping hot and fairly tasty. Bread came served in soup which didnt allow for dipping. Open plan kitchen, one chef was blowing their nose and touching their mouth and didn't wash they hands afterwards which was a little concerning. Extensive menu and wine list. Wines very reasonable and large pours.

Cosy restaurant- indoor and outdoor seating. Food is good but not the best. Ordered the trio of ice-creams which was a disappointment. Did not have the blueberry flavor. The coffee and vanilla bean was icy and lacked creaminess. On leaving the restaurant I noticed that there were specials (I would have definitely ordered) which was not mentioned to us by the 3 waitress’s that served us.

The burger was amazing. Like sooo good. Definitely worth the money as well as the fries. Staff is friendly. Would definitely come again.

Probably the best steak I’ve ever had in my entire life. Definitely recommend this restaurant. The staff were kind, attentive and professional.

Beautiful and quaint bistro. Lovely friendly service from our waitress We unfortunately didn’t eat we only stopped for a coffee- excellent coffee, I had meant to ask for the brand. Great spot to stop, relax and people watch I will be back!

Great restaurant, friendly staff, good food. But over priced.

Our group of foodies stopped here for lunch. The trout salad was excellent - image shown. The asparagus dish was also loved. The quality of service, food and ambiance is awesome.

Booked for the Bastille Festival, was a good choice. Service was excellent from our waitress. Expected a bit more from the steak especially when it’s over the R200 mark. The charcuterie was underwhelming for R200. Bernaise was the best I’ve ever had and the desserts were stunning. Will definitely be visiting again, but choose different dishes.
