French restaurants in Wales

  1. A

    Le Gallois

    One of Cardiff's finest, Le Gallois (the Welshman) majors in an inspirational blend of Welsh produce and French cuisine. The decorous dining room of grey walls, walnut-veneer tables and starched-linen napkins makes sure the focus is on the seasonal menu of half-a-dozen starters and half-a-dozen main courses.

    Didier & Stephanie

    Swansea's top restaurant is an intimate and relaxed place, run by the Gallic duo with their names on the door. It's well regarded for its French cooking, refined setting and attentive service, and it offers good-value set menus at lunch (two/three courses £14/17).

    Number 1 Bistro

    French bistro with some interesting twists on the standard fare with venison and ostrich, plus lots of fresh fish. The early-evening set menu is cracking value but only available until 6.30pm each evening.

    Stones Bistro

    Housed in what was a 17th-century temperance house, this dark but cosy French-style bistro is open for dinner and Sunday lunch, with specialty roast lamb and some decent options for vegetarians.

    Amelie's

    Named after the Audrey Tautou film, Amelie's is a welcoming French-motif bistro with wood floors and flowers on the tables. Tasty mains include vegetarian options. It's a relaxed place, popular for an easygoing lunch, right at the heart of town.

    Garçon!

    The name may conjure up the worst Brits-do-French stereotypes, but this place is the real deal. Seemingly beamed in directly from Normandy, the ambience and menu are perfectly authentic, even down to offering reasonable prix-fixe deals (two/three courses £13/16, served before 6pm).
