The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving French food

Beautiful food and excellent service. This is my fifth time eating at Oliver’s. Perhaps one day I shall choose a starter other than the absolutely delicious sweetbreads! The food today was awesome. It’s always great but today all four of us had faultless meals.

We had an excellent meal in the brasserie, the service was very good and the food was delicious. Would definitely go back.

Parissi is my favourite spot in Brixton. No it's not the cheapest but *everything* is home made and top quality. The cakes and pastries, the lunchtime frittata and the salads are all amazing. Spiros the owner is always there, he works hard and he really cares even if he's not always the friendliest! The staff are lovely and it's just the best place to catch up with friends or linger with coffee and a book. It's cosy inside, with more tables out back in the hidden garden. A really special place.

Having moved into the area 2 years ago, we’d been meaning to visit the White Lion as part of trying all the local restaurants. The staff were very friendly indeed and made us feel welcome. We had a drink in the bar whilst we waited for our table to be made ready in the restaurant and were called about 20 minutes later to go in. Having waited a while I had expected that the restaurant must’ve been full, but it wasn’t, less than half the tables were occupied which made the wait a little strange, not a problem, just odd. I ordered fish and chips and my wife their burger. Whilst both the fish and the burger were nice, they were both served with soggy chips, the kind that you get when the oil used to deep fry them just isn’t hot enough. I get crispy chips with my £4.95 fish take away from the chippy across the road, so at £13 per mains we’re talking top gastro pub prices for which getting the basics right isn’t an unreasonable expectation.

Arrived and discovered that Garrotte no longer exists. True Advisor is what should be reviewed - it is disgraceful that their site has not been corrected by omitting Gargotte from the listings.

Have been here before and had such a great time, always good music and singers. On this particular night there was a young lady singing older songs, was a breath of fresh air, what is her name and when will she be back????

Like so many we hadn't dined out in a long time and my clever husband suggested to sulky me a mid-week local pick-us-up treat. I can only say wow. We loved Ceres when we last visited in 2019 but the tasting menu tonight with matched wines was out of this world and a steal at the price. Deservedly Michelin-recognised cuisine with such a friendly and professional face (just two young women currently run the whole outfit including single handedly chef-ing and wonderful front of house). Ceres is walking distance for us and we are grateful because it is a destination-grade restaurant. Fine dining for £48pp.

We went here for a Sunday Lunch with 10 of us. The food was really tasty and visually appealing. I opted for the small plate which was plentiful and topped off with a large perfectly cooked Yorkshire pudding. I particularly liked that vegetables weren't what you would normally get, the addition of red cabbage was a great touch. The pub is also very dog friendly and they even do a doggy roast. We travelled from Bicester, Oxford and Witney to meet up and I would definitely make the journey again based on the food we had.

I've given the restaurant a 4 star review. And here are my reasons. Myself and my family go out for breakfast around Grimsby and Cleethorpes on a regular basis. We try Brown's on the sea front. The serve yourself buffets, jonny doughnuts. The fisherman's arms. Top to bottom. This could have been a disappointing experience as it took us an hour to get our food. Unfortunately for us they had just received a difficult table of 12. Even so an hour wait for breakfast is a long time. We had a very similar experience in the fisherman's arms. With one very big difference. Their customer service was shocking. This service was very good. Which saved this review from being a 2 star review. The food was exceptional. And we were offered free drinks because of the wait. Sometimes in this business not everything goes to plan. This was one of those days. But credit to them the staff turned it around. What I will say is the long delay with the food created a knock on effect for the rest of the day. So things I had planned Unfortunately didn't get done. I'm sure next time it will be a smoother service

Favourite place to eat in Brixton, delicious food with great vegan options!! Lovely atmosphere, perfect for a weekend brunch! Thank you

Maison Clement is deeply mismanaged, with an abysmal level of service and completely inefficient processing of the customer queue.

One of my favourite places to go for a crepe with my children. Been coming here regularly for a couple of years and it never lets me down. A shame the place is so small but it is well worth going to and in summer one can eat the crepes on Richmond Green which is 25m or so away.

Lovely coffee shop with excellent baked cheesecake! A friend and I had a wonderful sunny afternoon that was made better by Jen one of the workers. If you're going to Eynsham or just passing through you gotta grab a coffee, tea and sweet treat from Lyall&Co!!

Excellent restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. This was the second time we had visited and is was as good as the first visit. Really excellent original menu and great service.
