About Frenchies
Frenchies is a takeout restaurant at 95 Bethcar St in Ebbw Vale, open Wednesday to Sunday during the day and closed Mondays and Tuesdays. On Sundays the normal menu gives way to roast dinners with beef or pork, served with boiled and roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing, peas, carrots, cabbage and cauliflower cheese, plus gravy. A child's chicken dinner is also available, so a family can order a Sunday meal in one go. Breakfast is served on the other days, with the Big Daddy Breakfast built around sausages and eggs in a North American style. Baguettes are made up as you ask for them, including a cheese and ham salad baguette, and the kitchen sells meals, snacks and drinks alongside them.

Customer Review Summary
Sunday beef dinners are what reviewers return to most, with the beef described as melting in the mouth and a pork version called tender, both served with gravy, roast and boiled potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and cauliflower cheese. Reviewers call the portions huge and the value good, and one regular says they order the takeaway Sunday dinner through winter. Close behind are the baguettes made up to order, with one reviewer praising a cheese and ham salad baguette for its thick butchers ham, generous grated cheese and plenty of salad. A big breakfast is also called huge and delicious, and several mention friendly staff. The one critical review is about the name rather than the food: a reviewer from France says the fried North American style breakfast is not French cooking and objects to the restaurant presenting itself as French, while saying the food itself is not bad. Another reviewer notes that on Sundays only the Sunday dinner is served instead of the normal menu, and one customer phoned at 11.30 and still collected four beef dinners an hour later.

“Please people, just know this restaurant is absolutely not a French restaurant. Our restaurants in France aren't giving fried food but really more sophisticate food. We don't eat saucages, fried things and eggs for breakfast for example. This is an North American breakfast (US and Canada, as Québec), not french. To the owner of this, can you respect my country and don't say you are a french restaurant ? We don't eat all of this in France, for sure. It's just a question of respect. I'm not gonna to serve american food in France and pretend it's British. Because I respect British culture. Don't use french reputation to make money. Use your reputation. I'm not saying your food is bad, but you are lying to people and I really don't appreciate that. Thanks.”

“Always been lovely food, today I had a cheese and ham salad baguette and it was beautiful! Quality thick butchers ham, what seemed like a full bag of grated cheese and planty of salad so it was all in proportion, filled me for most of the day! Definitely be going more often.”
