That French Place is truly one of our favorite stops whenever we're in Charlevoix! Everything we've…read moretried has been incredible--from the crepes and soufflés to the biscuits, quiche, and so many of the pastries. You really can't go wrong! The service is just as wonderful as the food. Even when they are crazy busy, they have the sweetest woman helping direct everyone and keeping things organized and moving smoothly. It's such a small touch, but it says a lot about how much they care about the experience. Delicious food, wonderful people, and consistently great every time we visit. If you're in Charlevoix, That French Place is a must!

We're big fans of crepes, so you can imagine how excited we were to find this little gem! They make…read morehomemade caramel (YUM!). We tried their apple and caramel crepe and their banana and caramel crepe. Both DELISH! I also had their chai latte and followed the directions of the barista to let the chai steep a minute before tasting...mmmmm. Perfection! We'll definitely be putting this place on our rotation for yummy eats. Next on our list to try are their savory crepes.

Natalie our waitress was FANTASTIC! She answered all of our questions about the menu and even more importantly made great suggestions of which I took her up on. (PLUS...Natalie was EXTREMELY nice & funny) The omelet and quesadilla were SO good! It was a bit hot outside (though the seating outside would provide a great vibe of the city, drawbridge and some of Lake Charlevoix), so we sat inside but do not pass this by for any reason.

Was bummed we couldn't add an egg onto the BLT was told because they don't do any breakfast food once it's lunch time. Was told come back for breakfast and you can do the egg on a BLT. However day two was told no because they don't have mayo at breakfast which is a lousy excuse for not accommodating a simple request. I had the Popeyes omelette it was not good I wish I had the GOAT omelette that was amazing.

It's always nice when dietary options feel like an actual part of the menu rather than an afterthought. The food we've had has consistently been delicious, and there's definitely a lot to recommend here. My biggest drawbacks are the hours and the prices. Their hours can make it difficult to actually get there when we want to, and it's pretty pricey for breakfast/brunch. Especially when feeding more than one person, it adds up quickly. That said, when we do make it in, the food itself is absolutely worth complimenting, and having solid gluten-free choices is a huge plus. Great food and great options I just wish they were open more often and a little easier on the wallet!

First, the rice has that taste and texture of sitting in the crock pot all day. Maybe we'll check the place out for lunch, next time. The Pad Thai was far too sweet for my liking. I suspect it's in the sauce. The Drunken Noodles were spectacular. I could have eaten a double order. My new go-to dish! The woman at the counter taking our order was very polite and helpful. She even invited us to stay and eat in the tiny dining room. Very pleasant. The decor is really more like a carry-out in a strip mall. Technically, that's what it is. Half the restaurant has been closed off. Maybe since pandemic? Matters not, we enjoyed ourselves. The prices are pretty basic. The river and noodle dishes, for instance, are $13.95. Add two bucks for Beef, Shrimp or House Specialties. For our next visit, Mrs. E. has decided to try one of her favourites, Pineapple Rice. I will dare the Lomein and report back. 11/23

We had reservations for 6 at 7:15. After being seated I commented to my group that someone must…read morehave alredy had water because my water glass was completely wet. As she was pouring water in the other's glasses, the waitress said "Your glass just came out of the dishwasher." Not sure why she thought it would make it better, but she did bring another glass. We ordered drinks and it was taking quite a while. She came to the table and said the bar was running really behind. After another while, she said she was about ready to jump over the bar and get the drinks herself. The smoked whitefish appetizer had a minimal amount of crackers for the amount of pate on the plate. Also, we were not told that they were out of anything until one if the dishes was requested (no apology). One of our party had halibut and said it was really good. But she got no vegetable on her dish. My dish was supposed to have mushrooms but came with none. The pear salad got good comments. The rest said the food was just fine. No bread or crackers ahead of time. We were not asked if we wanted anymore drinks. We did get asked about dessert. We declined. Then when she returned she brought one check. She never asked how the bill should be split, so we had to wait for that. All in all, not the experience expected by those that had been there in the past (probably before covid) or for the price charged. Outside of the view, a very disappointing evening.

The French Onion soup was bland- a really weak beef base. The manager on duty Thurs night 6/25 was lovely and accommodated our party of 12. Sean, our server was a joy, took care of us efficiently. Lastly, I made a reservation 1-2 weeks out for 12, and she set up our table the road side instead of the canal. The traffic noise was loud. We requested a change and were moved into the quieter area on the canal. What a shame to put a family in the worst outside location in the place, and it wasn't busy outside. I would need alot of convincing to return.
