We enjoy our meal at Frenchies every time we dine here. The Valentine’s Day dinner set menu was so delicious. We wish some of the courses were staples. Drinks menu is really good. The Frenchies beers are great (their pale ale is my boyfriend’s favourite beer and we regularly buy cases of it). I would love to see a more everyday drinking sparkling on the menu. The staff are always lovely and attentive even when they were as busy as they were on Valentine’s Day night. Overall loved our experience at Frenchies for dinner.

Had a group booking for 4 girls for lunch and as soon as we all walked in, we are greeted with a smile and also the gorgeous greenery that surrounds us. The interior is full of florals and plants which adds to the atmosphere. We also had a swing chair to sit on with some cute cushions - cute touch. It's not our first time, some have dined here before, but it's still a cool place to visit. After lunch, we stroll through the laneway to see the pink floral set up that is The Chicest Mouse in Paris. Gorgeous! Then a coffee and cake at the cafe next store to top off our experience. It's always lovely to visit the Grounds of Alexandria!
