What a memorable meal, each course was beautifully presented and totally delicious. It is a pity that this restaurant is poorly supported at the lunch service (I know that it is usually fully booked in the evening). We were the only people in the restaurant which is not great for the restaurant, but we kind of liked that, hence the 5 star atmosphere rating :) I suspect that most people are a bit put off by an 8 course tasting menu for lunch, but they should not be. The portion sizes were perfect, light and so refreshing. The service was also really first class, attentive, but not in your face. This was the best meal we have had in a very long time and I would highly recommend Le Coin Francais

Real fine dining with excellent service. Atmosphere was not so good that's why Restaurant was empty. Not the fail of restaurant. Any time again for special events.

All super yummy but their signature dish "Langoustine" and the desert "apple" received an extra bonus and made it straight to our hearts.

The Restaurant

The newest edition to the Franschhoek scene is a restaurant really and truly for Franschhoek. Both in concept and in name, the aptly named “Le coin Français” , which literally means Franschhoek, will embody the essence of the valley in heritage, cuisine, art and wine. It will feature cutting edge methods meeting time tested French elegance in cuisine, a carefully selected locally themed wine list to showcase the best local wines, a French sommeliers selection, and an ever evolving collaboration of art.


The Chef

Multiple award winning Chef de cuisine and owner, Darren Badenhorst will take diners on a journey through his interpretations of nostalgic food memories encompassing “art on a plate” and leading them through a unique culinary exploration of flavours, textures and interactive creations.
