Wonderful bistro by the university. Great selections. We went for breakfast and it was very reasonably priced and we left full. The atmosphere is a nice blend of French colors and earthy woods. Food came very quickly. Poached eggs are perfect for my liking with a runny yolk but solid white. All the food we tried tasted very homemade including the hollandaise sauce. Presentation was wonderful.

We went in for coffee/tea but couldn’t resist ordering some food after seeing the menu. We weren’t disappointed...the food was truly excellent. Possibly the best sweet potato fries I’ve ever had. They’re working with a high-level of caution for COVID, which we appreciated. Ordering from the app at our table was slightly awkward at first, and you have to input a lot of info up front (credit card details, billing address, etc.), but the food came out extremely quickly after we placed our order, so no complaints there. The staff/service was all friendly and welcoming!
The food was lovely. This should be a 5 star review but I really don't understand the need to have plastic knives and forks and paper plates. Surely normal plates and cutlery that are then washed in dishwasher - and therefore sterilised- would be better. Less waste, less plastic and much easier to eat the beautiful food. I do appreciate the difficulty businesses are facing with Covid-19 and continue to wish The French Village well.
While the food is always good at this place the service, I find, is always slow. No change today. However I think their ordering/menu app could benefit from improvements. For example an edit tool to replace french fries with sweet potatoes fries? Or provide details of daily specials such as highlighting what exactly is the soup of the day. Instead we had to await catching the attention of a server to tell us it was cauliflower, and we had to cancel the order details and replace soup with a different item. Still when the chicken goujons arrived and French toast with blueberry compote and cinnamon cream, all were happy and satisfied. A place for good food but not for those in a hurry.
Smashing place, a Patisserie, Cafe and Restaurant. Breakfast through evening meal Med price, food cooked to order. Staff, friendly and very helpful. Accessibility - space around the tables a tad (bit tight). Menu - carnivores, vegetarian and limited vegan, specials board. We did not have space in our tums for pud. Toilets - very nice.
