I simply love The French Cafe. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the charm and style of the place. I absolutely love their aesthetic and the way everything feels thoughtfully put together.
One thing that makes such a difference for me is that they have photos on the menu. It makes choosing so much easier and more exciting, especially when everything looks delicious. They also have so many food options, whether you are in the mood for something sweet, savory, light, or indulgent.
They also have amazing French food options that truly make me feel like I am in France. Every bite gives that authentic French café experience, from the pastries to the savory dishes.
The environment is spacious and comfortable, which I really appreciate. Even when it is full and busy, it never feels chaotic. And the best part is that the food still comes out quickly, which shows how organized and professional the team is.
Amazing atmosphere, great variety, fast service, and beautiful presentation. Definitely a five star experience every time.

I’d like to start by saying it was a Saturday morning and it was very very busy. Line out the door busy. I got in line and ordered my food. I ordered the Parisan breakfast, the Dubai latte, and 2 pastries. After ordering I was given a number and chose a seat outside. I loved the atmosphere it was busy but once I sat down it wasn’t overwhelmingly so. They brought my pastries out almost immediately but I wanted to save them for last so I took a bite but waited. My food came out shortly after. This is where I was having issues. My eggs were overcooked which is fine, it’s not what I ordered however I understand it’s easy to overcook over easy eggs. So I didn’t say anything about that. However I had also not gotten my drink yet and had nothing to drink with my food. I waited almost 30+ minutes for my drink. By the time I got it my breakfast was cold. Due to my own preferences I wasn’t a fan of the latte. Despite all of this I am not angry. Sure I was a little dissapointed in my expierience however I do not blame the company for this. That is why I am still giving a 5 star review. While I do think the communication between people serving kitchen and people serving coffees was lacking I can understand with how busy it is. The employees were very courteous to me and even provided me a refund for the breakfast as well as the latte which I thought was very kind. I’ve only come here to give an honest depiction of my expierience on a Saturday morning. My message to the staff is that I see you were working very hard and I will be back perhaps just in a less busy day. You were all very kind and accommodating to my concerns and I truly appreciate it. This is a very nice little cafe in a very nice area.

As a self-proclaimed French girly, I was SO excited to try The French Cafe after seeing it all over social media. We ordered a mix of pastries, coffee, and savory items to really get a feel for the menu.
Starting with the positives — the cappuccino was genuinely great. Smooth, balanced, and exactly what you want with pastries. The viral chocolate mango dessert (iykyk) was also fun. I’ve had better versions locally, but it still scratches the itch and is worth trying at least once.
We also tried one of the filled croissants that comes with a pipette to inject coffee into it, which was definitely a fun concept. Unfortunately, the flavor just didn’t quite land for me.
That same theme carried into the savory items. The bacon, egg, and cheese croissant was good but nothing particularly memorable. The croque monsieur was the biggest disappointment for me — it’s such a French staple, and I had high hopes. Both it and the breakfast sandwich had American cheese, which felt really off. Respectfully, American cheese has absolutely no business being anywhere near French food
The croque monsieur was also cold in the middle, almost like it had been pressed earlier and reheated, which was a bummer. The breakfast potatoes were just okay.
Overall, the aesthetic is super cute and I get the hype visually. But for me, this is more of a coffee-and-dessert stop than a full brunch destination. If you’re coming, I’d stick to the drinks and chocolates. The savory food just didn’t quite deliver.

FROM THE OWNERS OF BALDWIN PERK CAFE
If you’ve been to Baldwin Perk Cafe, you know that the coffee is extremely over roasted, the place has a terrible layout, and the pastries are soggy. This place is no different, but let’s break it down.
1. Coffee: Regardless of what you order and however much sugar you add, the coffee tastes tremendously harsh- it’s not even about the temperature. I had a Dubai cappuccino, and while the cream decor was nice, you can’t even drink the “coffee.” It’s so harsh that no amount of cream or sugar would take away from the disgusting taste. My husband had a regular capuchino and he had the same experience.
2. Pastries: the croissants are soggy!! It’s making them look trendy, but the flavor and texture are just not there. Not only that, but the place has no concept of hygiene – please tell me why there are bugs flying around the pastries? Take a look at the picture of the croissant for some little bug resting on it. My husband had a strawberry croissant and I had one with raspberries and blue berries – it’s literally just sweet. Might as well get Costco croissants and you have the same product.
Ambiance: similar to the Perk Cafe, this establishment has terrible layout for seating areas. It’s like they put a table anywhere that they could fit a table, making it difficult to get around when it’s full. In the same theme, I’m pretty sure they must be violating the electrical code because they literally put a table in front of the electrical room!! The code is there for a reason and electricians should be able to reach this “electrical room” in case of an emergency. Just look at the pictures with the Eiffel Tower. Additionally, the business should guide a “queue” in which the people don’t loop around and cover the electrical room. The employees can barely walk through the pathway to get customers their food
Lastly, the only “French” thing about this so-called cafe are the multiple France-themed “pictures” which clearly look like they were bought from TJ Maxx / Ross / Marshall’s. Calling this a French cafe is a massive insult to France.
The only one good thing about this place was just the breakfast place since the amounts appear to be reasonable. Nevertheless, it was overall a terrible experience. Management should seriously consider where they are getting their beans from because it tastes like pure gasoline – literally look into European coffee such as Illy and Lavazza, or ACTUAL French coffee like Cafe Richard and Malongo.
Complete disappointment, I wish I had a list of businesses owned by whoever owns “The French Cafe” and “Baldwin Perk Cafe” just so that we know what to avoid.

Absolutely loved my experience at The French Cafe! I tried the pistachio croissant, tiramisu croissant, pistachio chocolate cup, pistachio latte, iced crème brûlée latte, and tiramisu latte — everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The pistachio options were especially amazing! Great atmosphere and definitely a spot I’ll keep coming back to. ☕ ✨

THIS IS AN AMAZING PLACE!
First of all, I’m glad I ignored the reviews and went here.
From start to walking out, the experience was amazing.
The cashier, the young lady that some people left poor reviews about, was nothing but A DELIGHT! She smiled a lot, she was VERY accommodating, she really did an amazing job! Let me mention that I gave her a compliment, and that made her dark eyes even more beautiful and her soul shine. So maybe, maybe, next time you expect or demand something, stop expecting and demanding and just be kind to the people who are serving your food.
The servers/runners are also eager to help, smiling, and fast. The bussers are all kind and grateful if you don’t just pass them but hold a door for them. I was there with my friend, and just to be sure I’m not delusional, I confirmed with her, she had the best experience too. If you are kind and grateful, the staff is kind and grateful to you! Just get off your horse and be more open to people.
And now to the food.
We ordered raspberry, lemon, and peach cakes, which were FANTASTIC. Those people that say these items lack flavor might have just forgotten how to enjoy subtle flavors without overly sweet sweetness. This café is called The French Café, they’re not using tons of sugar in France.
We also had a crème brûlée, and let me tell you this, I do not like crème brûlée at all, I ordered that for my friend, and typically find myself not feeling well after. BUT goodness gracious, this is the best and the only crème brûlée in the whole world that I actually LOVED.
For the savory food, we had the salmon crepe, which was very tasty. The sauce they used perfectly complements the real taste of salmon. Also, a small note, it is not smoked salmon. Not that it made it bad, just so you won’t expect a smoked salmon taste.
And last but not least, the onion soup. I’ve tried probably 70 different onion soups around the world. I have a special restaurant in Paris with an amazing soup, but this place in Orlando got me in shock. I had no good expectations, ordered it because it’s a classic item on any French menu. I’m not sure how exactly they were able to do that, but this is seriously THE BEST ONION SOUP I’ve ever tried. It might not even be authentic by taste, but whatever their recipe is, it’s just perfect.
For drinks, we had two different teas, which were great, and a Dubai latte, which was beautiful-looking and great-tasting.
Me and my friend are not social media people, so it didn’t matter to us that this place is hyped. We just love French cuisine. And this place is definitely in our top 3 places in Florida.

We messed up our order multiple times due to the pressure of other customers waiting behind us. Honestly, staff (especially the lady named Raza) made it better and serviced our tiny little issue with a smile and empathy. Customer service is beyond outstanding and food was even better. We are the customers for life due to our pleasant experience today. The cooks and baristas made everything so quick and amazing. We will be back for sure. All hype was worth it!

My visit to The French Café in Hamlin was pure magic! Alae, the manager, and her staff were absolutely amazing—super warm, attentive, and passionate about everything. The food was phenomenal; with my background in culinary arts, I can honestly say it was some of the best I’ve ever had in my life, true gourmet quality that blew me away. An experience second to none—I’ll be back soon!
