The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving French food

We went here as we had Tesco vouchers which I think a lot of people had and this may explain the prices for the food you get. You had to pick off the a la carte menu, I had Beef Bourguignon for £18.35 which contained two pieces of beef and a large amount of beefy mushrooms on a bed of mash. It looked very meaty but only two pieces. The King Prawn starter was nice at nearly ten pounds. There was quite a wait to be served as there seemed to be a changeover from the breakfast to the lunch sitting and someone from the kitchen staff ended up running out with the starters. If I did not have the Tesco vouchers I would not have been very happy at the prices charged, but the restraunt is still getting those full prices for the vouchers used I presume. The thing is you would never visit again based on the price for the mushroom Bourguignon and also the Cesar salad which was about £14 and you had to pay extra for chicken.

This was our usual, pre-Christmas, family get together at BB - albeit minus grand-daughter but plus, for the first time, the family dog, who was well looked after Orders were taken promptly - by the waitress we had met on previous visits - and the starters appeared at the expected time. Then we could tell that something had gone wrong - as our 'mains' of those and other diners, did not appear. Eventually we learnt that there had been a genuine medical emergency in the kitchen - causing a 30 minutes delay. That gained our sympathy but a much earlier explanation would have been a good idea. Starters were fine - being of the usual quality but unfortunately there were aspects of the 'mains' that were not up to the usual standards - presumably due to the disruption in the kitchen. In fairness, to compensate for the delay, we were offered desserts 'on the house' but could not risk missing a train or being late for the school pick up respectively, plus the dog had been very patient for longer than expected to be needed (as had we known about the 30 minutes delay, he could have had a walk between courses) - so had to decline. Despite the issues, we did still pay the usual gratuity - as the problems were not down to our waitress and it must have been difficult for the kitchen staff with the head chef having to go off site in the middle of service.

El personal es brillante y muy atento. La comida era deliciosa y muy bien valorado. Lamentablemente se habían quedado sin el postre que queríamos por lo que elegimos uno diferente y nos lo dieron gratis! Todo alrededor de buen rollo y no podemos esperar a volver.

Had an amazing evening today. Atmosphere is chill and welcoming. Thank you Dora for being so lovely.

We love coming to Crab House Cafe, but it seems the menu hasn’t changed much in 3 years. I would expect to see exciting dishes like Whole Plaice, Dover Sole, Turbot, Monkfish, John Dory. Instead there was Gurnard, Sea Bass, Haddock, Pollock, Ray Wings, Lemon Sole twice. Seems to be the cheaper fish only. Lemon sole is very cheap and there was 2 different dishes of this, why? It’s great to have crab, mussels, oysters, etc but please try and use the best white fish. I actually made this point to the cafe 3 years ago so I won’t hold my breath.

Very nice place and delicious food. The service was excellent. Might be better to book in advance as it can get quite crowded and busy around there.

Bit of retail therapy followed by lunch at Rouge. We enjoyed a glass of wine while waiting for our meal, had the two course menu. The chicken was fine, if a little tough and apple tart and ice cream delicious. I wish I’d asked the name of the waitress as she was charming, made us smile every time she spoke to us. We didn’t wait long for our food and will certainly come again in our next shopping trip.

Fantastic service the food was lovely and the waiters were very nice would defiantly go again would recommend

Very underwhelming experience. We have dined in several Michelin star restaurants around the world and love a good experience. This restaurant was a great disappointment. We had the evening menu, which appears to be dishes from the menu but to share and therefore double the price, other tables had ordered regular meals and they appeared to be the same size as the one we had to share. Secondly the food was just not great. Very normal, nothing extraordinary or special in any kind of way, rather boring and bland. Also the service was unable to speak proper English therefore the communication was difficult. The wine had to be self-served, the bottle was left at the table, no-one checked on us to refill our glasses. When we spoke up regarding missing fish cutlery, we got a rude answer from the waiter that he can cut it perfectly fine and would do it for us if we struggled 😳. No explanation on the dishes was given, just placed in front of us. Also the restaurants atmosphere is not great, it is very busy as the kitchen is on the upper floor and you can see and hear the waiters running up and down the hallway. The bar in the upper floor is operated in a loudly manner. When we asked to waive the service charge, our waitress was not able to understand the ask herself and called the manager who discussed the situation, so a bad meal with bad service was followed by a socially awkward conversation. We would have expected a price reduction at the very least. Would not recommend, genuinely don’t understand how they managed to get a Michelin Star.

We went to Soirée Gastronomique at Leamington. The food was excellent, well presented and tasty. Service was attentive and friendly. Altogether a good evening out and highly recommended.

Food was tasty and was served quite quick. Nice atmosphere and the staff member Sneha was sweet and friendly and recommended the best desserts.

Always a great place to eat , friendly atmosphere, great staff and delicious food . The 2 or 3 set course menu is also very good value .

We met up for a meal at the Bistro last Wednesday evening. As always we were made very welcome and the service throughout was excellent. I love the extra touches and they are very accommodating. We all really enjoyed our meals. Although a service charge was added we were told that we could have it removed which I think is reasonable. I will definitely recommend the Bistro to others.

Best curry we’ve had in a long time Great service despite being fully booked Amazing food Why can’t all Indian restaurants get it so good as here! We will be back

We came to have dinner at Côte for Valentine’s Day! The food was amazing and we had a great time. This is the second time I come here and the staff is always welcoming and friendly. I have been to other Côte and this one is by far the best. Everytime we come to Gloucester we have dinner here. Thanks again.
