The best restaurants serving French food in Richmond upon Thames London

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.

Food is exceptional and the atmosphere is great. Thank you!

Couldn’t be happier with the service at The Kings Head. We were told that the garden was hired for a wedding later the day but the staff we happy for us to eat outside providing we ate before the guest arrived. The staff seems completely unphased and stressed despite setting up the garden for a wedding and serving us at the same time. Superb professionalism. The food was fantastic, the scotch egg was superb and the cheese soufflé stole the show. I can’t remember the name of the dessert pictured, but it was the perfect dessert; light but rich! A great local pub at the heart of a great community in Teddington. Will absolutely visit again!

Love the place been going for years great staff

This coffee shop is a small local business. They serve the best coffee in the area in a fantastic and friendly atmosphere. On top of it, they serve breakfast and lunch. The selection of food might not be huge, but the food is fresh and tasty. People who work here are lovely and super friendly. I would recommend this place for a coffee break if you are in the area. They also have some cocktail evenings, so it might be an option when it's too late for a coffee.

Great staff- awful food. This is the worst breakfast I have ever eaten. It was that bad me and friends were in floods of tears laughing. We ordered 7 breakfasts. The breakfast comes with a ramekin containing 8 beans (I counted). All the toast was stone cold, most of which was black. My friend ordered a pork toastie and received a burnt crust. I’d guess they ran out of bread? Do not go here for breakfast. It is undoubtedly the worst breakfast in Richmond. In fairness, the staff were lovely. I did say at the end that the food was terrible though and wasn’t probed or asked why. More atmosphere in my downstairs toilet.

I’ve been buying my coffee sometimes lunch in this place since September 2023. I noticed a colleague of mine had been given a loyalty card. When I went in to buy my usual coffee I had asked when did you start doing loyalty cards. He proceeded with a reply of 10 years ago which I said ok and as I was leaving after paying for my coffee he had the cheek to say you should talk less and listen more! Lost a regular customer

Absolutely fab neighbourhood restaurant in St Margarets. On Tuesday and Wednesday they offer free corkage. The food is well done and fairly priced - especially if you get the prix fixe menu. A proper local gem - very pleased to have found it.

Como primer cena en Côte, estaba más que satisfecho. Nuestro camarero Halim era tan atento, divertido y no podría haber cuidado de nosotros mejor. Melanie también fue muy atento y servicial durante toda la duración de nuestra comida. 5 * + para ambos, realmente hicieron mi comida especial.

Having grown up in Paris, I am very particular when it comes to pâtisserie. Each time I dare to raise my hopes, I am invariably let down. But not yesterday at the French Tarte in Teddington. The Pear & Almond tart is a classic and this did not disappoint; it was skillfully executed, nice to look at, and very good. The Chocolate Tart I eyed with suspicion as it looked like it could be dense and unpleasant. I could not have been more wrong. The first mouthful brought an extraordinary burst of perfect chocolate pleasure. The baguette was equally good - nice crust and chewy crumb. After 26 years in the UK, I think I have finally found a little piece of home. Merci!

Perfect place for a dinner with friends on a Friday night. Superb presentation of food, excellent service, proper wine list. Had been here in the past for special occasions, and then a long gap between visits, was so glad to come back. Highly recommended.

On the 17th December, our family had booked online to eat here before an 8pm performance at the nearby Normansfield theatre . We received a booking confirmation number with specific reference to our one vegan diner but when we arrived, despite the lights being on, the place was empty and there was a note stuck to the door saying “we are closed” This may have been due to an emergency and if so we hope all is ok with the owners but we did not receive any notification and had to walk the streets to find another restaurant that could accommodate us in time without a booking.
