Frederic Cafe Bistro

The French Bistro-style wine shop was bustling with a Christmas lunch crowd. The baked Camembert was decent but the bread was bland. The fish dish had a small portion size with a small fillet, half a courgette, a bit of pea mush, and a pool of red sauce, leaving it unexciting. The turkey main course was more filling, but the roast potatoes were tough. The cheeseboard was large, but the cheese needed more time out of the fridge to develop flavor. The roulade was probably the best part of the meal. Overall, I usually enjoy dining at Frederic, but this time I left feeling underwhelmed. It seems that the mass-market Christmas catering compromised the quality, resulting in a difference between ok...

When you go out for a meal you want to be satisfied from start to end and almost nod to yourself after and say, yep, that was it. And wow, this place was. Second time going and did not disappoint. A lovely menu to celebrate the French cuisine in an elegant way but not pretentious. Honest, flavourful and just wow. A great team, attentive and hosted in a lovely building. Tucks you out of the main hustle and can just escape, focus on those around you and select a bottle of wine off menu or from the wine store. A true special touch that. Will be back for sure

This restaurant reminds me of dining in France. It is located behind a lovely arched arcade and features a great selection of wines from a used wineshop and a patisserie that we have yet to try. We savored the beef bourguignon, which was incredibly tender. The staff kindly let us share a dessert since I am watching my dessert intake, and we indulged in a delicious prune tart. The wine selection, including wines by the glass, is very good and reasonably priced.

I was really impressed with this restaurant - the staff were excellent and the atmosphere was top-notch. The Manager was very attentive and seemed like he had experience from a high-end establishment like The Savoy or The Ritz. The menu was fantastic and the food was delicious. I'll definitely be returning in the future. Reserva una mesa ahora

10 of us enjoyed a fabulous dinner on Friday evening. Dining in a lovely atmospheric setting, we were very well looked after by Alex, who was friendly, attentive and good fun. Food and service great, and we were not rushed into ordering or to leave after the meal. Very relaxing, thank you Alex !
