Charming
Great for fine wines
Neighbourhood gem

French food doesn't always have to be formal.
Back to the classics that we know and love, done well.
Dining is a social affair, Fondue, Raclette & plenty to share during the season.
We've carefully curated our cheeses and offer a range of French ingredients.

Delightful, small French restaurant. Staff very attentive. Food - rabbit bonbons starter was delicious, quite filling. My companion, who likes his meat gave the steak a thumbs up. The duck, served with green beans and mash. was flavoursome and tender. The bottle of red from Languedoc was good. I look forward to going there again.

The worst service from anywhere I have been in London. Went out of their way to be awkward for a group trying to sit together.

The food was good.. once it arrived. We waited over an hour between starter and mains for steak frites and duck. Not acceptable. We had given ourselves 2hours before a theatre booking and due to the appalling food service we had to rush our mains in less than 15 minutes. The wait staff were completely oblivious despite us chasing 3 times. On top of all that the ambience was not what we expected of an advertised french bistro style it was more on par with a sports bar. An experience we had been looking forward to but we will not be returning to Tabac. The one lady (red hair apologies no name) at least apologised and refunded some of the meal but this was not enough to recoup an abysmal experience.

Great little spot on Exmouth market, very atmospheric and makes you feel like you're on holiday. Our server was wonderful and attentive despite a very busy night. Only thing that let the meal down was one side took ages to arrive so we'd finished eating mains by the time it got to us, we thought that maybe it would be comped as a result but it didn't get taken off the bill. Creme brulé was outstanding!

Had a window seat and watched the world go by. Ordered the meat and the cheese platter - £35 for 2. Excellent value and superb food. Half a dozen cheeses from France (including Roquefort) and half a dozen meats (including some excellent dried ham). Highly recommended.
