    Fran’s is the kind of place that makes you feel instantly at home — warm, unpretentious, and full of character. The food is simple but exceptional: fresh ingredients, beautifully balanced flavors, and a clear passion behind every dish. The staff are genuinely kind and attentive, adding to the cozy, welcoming vibe. Whether you’re popping in for a morning coffee, a leisurely lunch, or an early dinner, Fran’s always delivers. One of my favorite spots in London — a real local treasure.

    Great hideaway place that is a bit out of the ordinary and has a bit of a history. Being converted Victorian toilets, it is small and intimate. Great cocktails and nice selection of nibbles and light bites.
