French Cafe Bistrot on Forest Hill Road

Hi


We have been going to the French caf? for breakfast and lunch for a number of years (the new caf? is the same as before just with a better layout)but tonight we went there for dinner for the first time.


They have a small menu but there is plenty of choice and because it is a small menu everything is done really well.


We had moules mariniere and steak frites. Both were great and the steak was cooked medium rare as ordered (a minor triumph for restaurants around here!!!) I have also had their burger for lunch and that is great too.


We also had crepes for dessert these were very yummy and we may just pop out for these as a treat in the future.


The atmosphere was really nice, a pleasant hubbub of friends having a good catch up without being loud (imagine the friendly atmosphere of the morning caf? converted into an evening restaurant vibe).


It is indeed BYOB at the moment. Even better!!

I will try to get a picture of the menu when I'm passing. Haven't eaten there yet but popped past on Friday hoping to get a table and they were full! It's a small menu, but everything sounds delicious.


Currently doing BYOB on Thursday, Friday and Saturday but the sign outside suggests they're also applying for an alcohol licence to serve wines throughout the week. Hope they get it - such a nice spot.

My wife and myself had a very nice evening in the French Cafe Bistrot the other night. We have been there on several occasions. The menu is small, but the food is excellent. They do have daily specials and this time I tried the Duck which was delicious.

Staff are very friendly and the bill was reasonable.

I was here this morning.. My first visit since the move from down the road..


It's always such a pleasant experiance.. I love the outside seating at the new place ... a real Sun Trap..


I opted for the Portuguese Custard Tart (Sod the blood sugars) and a Pot of Tea..


The staff here are delightful. A cheerful 'HELLO..' as you walk in.

..and with the Sun shining, a real bonus.

    • Thanks for taking the trouble to do the calculation.  To be honest, it’s never occurred to me to report it online.  I’ll have to look into it.  I’ve just spoken to the ‘helpline’ and, after listening to ten minutes of some, admittedly, not too disagreeable jazz music, eventually got through to the call centre.  After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, during which the operator was clearly reciting from a script, the essential question of why I continue to be billed by the RV method, despite their insistence on fitting a meter three years ago, went unresolved.  At first they couldn’t confirm whether I had a meter at all (not their department) but then agreed that I do have one but that it’s ’inactive’ (despite clearly recording usage as detailed above). I was told to contact the ‘meter department’ separately on a different number (Mon-Fri only) and was then asked if I wanted to sign up for various ‘pensioner’ benefits, none of which I understood (probably because I am a pensioner) before being asked to provide ‘feedback’, which I politely declined.  Looking forward to listening to some more jazz on Monday morning though.
