    A great dinner at French Connection. An excellent location right on the Main Street in Franschhoek. The menu is well thought out with excellent choices but we chose from the specials board on the recommendation of our server and we’re not disappointed-great decision

    A relaxed, lovely lunch. Even though we were running slightly late for our reservation, the staff were extremely helpful and efficient. Trout salad was delicious and my husband really rated his veal. Also recommend the Tarte au Citron!

    We had a great lunch at French Connection Bistro, one of our favorite spots! The food was delicious as always, and the atmosphere is inviting. However, our waitress wasn't around much, which made the experience a bit less smooth. The management deserves a 10/10 for creating such a wonderful dining environment. We’ll be back!
