Food was absolutely wonderful. Beautiful croissants 🥐...best ones ever...so buttery and delicious!! My absolute favourite!! Staff very helpful, friendly and accommodating. Gotta love this cafe!!😘
The butter tarts are some of the best in Winnipeg. The chocolate cake (zucchini?) was moist and very tasty and the icing and ganache gave me a buzz for the rest of the day!
My review will be fast and to the point, you must eat here! The Frenchway Cafe has great food made to perfection! Today I had the special grilled Turkey club with Brie cheese, it was made with...yes real roasted Turkey! I can rave enough about this place! I also recommend getting some of the insanely great Bread Pudding to go.
The Frenchway Cafe is one of those places that gets talked about a lot, but somehow or other I never get around to writing up. About 15 months ago I paid a visit to interview Larissa Webster, the owner, as part of a post I wrote about a fundraiser called Stone Soup Luncheon. We ended up talking more about the French approach to food than we did about the event itself. While I was there she offered me a bowl of their vegetable soup. Before I left, I visited the pastry case and purchased a couple of pastries to take with me and enjoy back at the church office.
There's not many people I can say I've known for 12 years and still maintain a close friendship with, despite all the changes in our lives. . So how do we celebrate 12 years of shenanigans!!? Eating of course; Pastries for breakfast? Yes please!. We started off with drinks. Coffee for those two and blood orange soda for me, before quickly diving into a conversation as if no time had passed.
This morning was my first time going there. I went with my baby who just turned one! Service was great, I can't remember my waitresses name, but it seemed she had just come back from a trip and all the customers loved her! Food was great! The only complaint I would have is that the hash browns were definitely "older" other than that my experience was great and I'll definitely be back with the rest of my family! We just moved down the street! :)
The best Croissants I've ever had! I'm not lying. I get 2 every other morning! Buttery, flaky and delicious. Perfect crunchy outer shell with layer after layer of melt in your mouth buttery pastry. I have yet to find better and doubt I will!

It is my 60th Birthday and I had asked if they could make a hazel nut slice the day before. They did not have time.. however they made me a hazelnut macaroon!It was perfection in each bite! Every time I purchase a pastry from this place, it is beyond wonderful! Staff is amazing always and they have promised to make the hazelnut slice soon so I will be back again to indulge again!. It truly is done the French way!
Ok, to be fair my rating is only for the desserts as I haven't tried the food yet, but I bet my rating will be the same. Bought desserts to have on New Years and the did not disappoint! It's a good thing I don't live to close to this place or else I would be there everyday for a treat.
The food us always great. Their baked goods are always amazing. The service is often slow, but that isn't a deal breaker. The salmon benedict is worth the wait!
I am a regular. I really enjoy their meals. My favourite is the mushroom and chevre crepe. My gf likes the eggs benedicte. The issue is the service. It's always a hit or miss with the service. This morning, for example, the servers didn't even offer us coffee for close to fifteen minutes after we sat there.
This is basic stuff. We are there for breakfast, give us water and offer coffee.
Couple weeks ago, our coffees were never refilled the entire time we were there.
I will continue to go there because the quality of food makes up for their lack of service.
The desserts are too die for love the macarons just like the ones I used to have in Paris absolutely spectacular pastries as well haven't tried the bread yet but can hardly wait to try it next
The food is good, I wouldn't say it is amazing though but averall the breakfasts here are above average.
The service is amazing, especially the blond server (with glasses), she is so friendly and careful, this compensates all the minor issues (like overcooked sausages sometimes) of the food.
I give 4 stars for the food and 6 stars for the service = 5 stars overall.
It’s my first time here, and the food is tasty. Staffs are friendly and nice. I also ordered an opera cake for takeout, it is awesome! Not too much sweet, so softy ! I really enjoyed the time here with my friend. Nice place for brunch!
I've been here several times, each time Great food, friendly service. Tasty breakfast of eggs Benedict with steamed asparagus. We were well served by Tanith, our charming and attentive server. Took home a cinnamon bun and a pain au chocolat that was to die for!
Just wow. Been wanting to try this place forever and they did not disappoint. Went in for brunch with a bit of a waitlist, but made sure we knew there was no pressure if we changed out minds while we waited.
Snagged their ultra limited edition Burger Week 2021 and savoured every bite along with my side of their coconut curry beet soup.
Will be back for the food, treats, and amazing staff that made me feel safe and welcome.
Tasty breakfast - typical fare with an extra flair. Bakery treats have a more 'European' flavour (less sugar & butter than North American versions).

Edit. We come often and we love getting some treats. The breads are OK. The strawberry whipped cake is so good and different tarts. The apple strudel is too big and many raw apples.
Probably my go to place for brekkie. This place is the perfect place to meet friends for a quick coffee and scone. Love the vibe and great service. One minus is the coffee is just OK, wish it was great.
Great food, fast friendly service and very reasonable prices.
I loved that the benedict came with mushrooms! The beer cheese soup was phenomenal. I would definitely come back just for this soup. My company said the strawberry crepes were also amazing.
I've enjoyed some sandwiches from here as well and have never been disappointed with the food or service.
