The best restaurants serving French food in England

It doesn't get any better than this. What a great place for that very special meal. I cannot fault it in any way. Wonderful views from the dining room, great service and the best food.

The food was excellent. But the service was sadly lacking. Would go back and hope it was just an off day.

Goats cheese tart lovely, and service was good, and generally expensive...... But £4.00 for 2 carrots... I will say no more🤔🙄

Me and my friend decided to go to Coco Retro on a Saturday night,, I had the Bouillabaisse fish stew and ordered some fries and a glass of glass of Sauvignon. The service was slow and tbh the waiter seemed very uninterested in us. My fish stew ended up being a bowl of mussels with a few tiny prawns thrown in, the sauce had absolutely no flavour at all, the fries were dry and the wine warm and not pleasant, when asked if I enjoyed my meal I did mention that I wasn’t satisfied politely, the response was “oh that’s a shame”. I certainly won’t be going back again and won’t be recommending either

A very lively and friendly venue with great staff attitudes and service matched by a lovely range of food and drinks. Our waitress went above and beyond for this birthday occasion.

Great food both quality and selection. Cheese board to die for (sooo reasonably priced at less than the supplement other restaurants add for cheese on a set menu). Amazing wine list - reasonably priced, and with some gems not even listed. So many dishes to try when we get the chance. My only criticism would be the lack of soft furnishings - it was really full when we were there, and quite difficult to hear with nothing to deaden the sound. Great value for money.

We enjoyed a family lunch for my son's eighteenth birthday today. We were looked after by Phillipe and his colleagues wonderfully. The whole team went the extra mile and the food and drinks were excellent value and the food was some of the best I've had anywhere. The steak was cooked perfectly, moules were a great starter and everyone had a great time. I'd recommend this restaurant wholeheartedly. Thank you. We'll be back!

A lovely venue to spend a chilled Sunday afternoon. Our roast dinner was great and the live band playing were brilliant! Highly recommend

if you re looking for French croissants that's the place to go, honest opinion from a French. great quality!

We visited to celebrate my aunt's birthday and were thoroughly impressed. All three courses were delicious and our waiter was excellent and very friendly.

Lovely but slightly pricey. Sadly, closing due to owner/chefs health.

4 de nosotros vinimos a compartir una botella de vino después de ir a un espectáculo cercano. Hacía tanto ruido en el interior que pedimos sentarnos fuera, después de pedir el vino en el bar. Era su casa blanca y costó £ 38 que es la botella más barata que tienen. Nos ofrecimos a sacar el vino con nosotros y dijeron que no, que alguien lo sacaría. Lo hicieron, después de lo cual lo abrieron y llenaron los cuatro vasos hasta arriba. Les pedimos que se detuvieran, ya que no todos estábamos bebiendo tanto como los demás, solo quería medio vaso mientras conducía. Pero para entonces estaba derramada. Lo redistribuimos. No nos trajeron agua ni nada más. Pedimos la factura y la pagamos - después me di cuenta de que nos habían cobrado £ 4. 75 cargos por servicio. Debería haber revisado la factura en su momento, por supuesto y tendré más cuidado la próxima vez. No volveré a ir allí.

El hotel que posee este restaurante ha cerrado y esperanzas para ofrecer una nueva franquicia en el futuro. Tendrá que ver este espacio para averiguar quién toma posesión del nuevo sitio. Es una pena, porque el que sabía o era muy buena, pero ahora debe descansar en paz.

My first time at Les Associes and I'll happily come back. We had a fantastic experience there: the atmosphere is very cosy, the food is exquisite and the service is great. The owner is very friendly and goes the extra mile to make you enjoy the meal. Unlike many French places in London serving pretentious food that is not even French, this place does fulfil its promise, it's a little gem in Crouch end.

Great food and service. Shame it’s closing down 🙁
