Went for brunch with my family on a Saturday around 10 and found the place very crowded. Managed to get a table and service came over quickly. Ordered the usual items such as crepes, eggs etc. and I got a chicken salad sandwich with excellent curry turkey soup. The entire bill with tax and tip came to $70 for 5.... More

This is a very pleasant neighbourhood joint and a good place to go for brunch on the weekend although it gets busy and you may have to wait. A fairly limited menu but one good option is a 'build your own' omelette which lets you choose three additional ingredients. Cheerful service. There is a range of breads to buy to... More

I have eaten at the Lilac location (that's the only one left, right?) twice in the last couple of weeks, both time for breakfast, mostly because there is almost nowhere else to go in the area (except Stella's, which I think is just the worst ever). Anyways. It is an okay place overall. I had french toast on the first... More

Service was quite bad for us and even worse for the couple next to us who had to consistently ask just to have their order taken to even getting their bill. They were irate with good reason. In general I found the food way overpriced for the type... More

We only stopped in at this place because we couldn't get into a nearby restaurant but the super-friendly service and excellent french-style mains were great. Not the place to go if you're on a diet but worth a special treat.

A quick review: We loved the food and friendly service at The Frenchway. We went on the weekend and the owner was not there, but the server was very friendly. The food is beautifully prepared - we ordered the apple strudel, crêpes, a heart-shaped Valentine's cake, and some other goodies. You won't regret a visit to this tiny cafe. (I... More
