The last of the great caffs. I've known this place for over a decade and recently have been eating here every week. Franx is that rare gem of old school cafés with a huge menu of hot and cold food at a fair price. The quality is decent, the service speedy and efficient, but what most people don't know is that it's so much more than a greasy spoon! I go here twice a week and mostly eat their brilliant salad boxes. Tell me where in London you can sit down for a whole plate of salad and Chicken for under a tenner? They also do brilliant paninis and of course a decent fry up.
Long may it continue!
Wow, these guys know how to run a cafe in busy central. Was greeted right away when I entered, ordered at the counter promptly, and was invited to take a seat. I swear that the toast and tea came in under 5 minutes and the whole breakfast in definitely less then 5 after that. I added the black pudding to one of the breakfast sets and the total was just over a tenner (under without). Very good quality English breakfast, one of the better ones I’ve had and perhaps the best one I’ve had this central. Great for a rainy day, cheers and thank you very much.
The place to go for an authentic English breakfast. Decent, but not fancy. Good service and tasty food that will keep you filled for hours.
I stumbled upon Franx this morning while I was out for an early morning stroll. Not many places were open and I was quite hungry so I decided to pop in and I'm so glad I did! I was met with the friendliest greeting I've experienced in London so far by Hussein who is an excellent multi-tasker as he carried on with his restaurant duties while offering up the most interesting conversation.
The food was nothing less than excellent! I had a wonderful English breakfast and for a great price! If you're in the area, do yourself a favor a stop in. You won't be disappointed!
We came for a classic English breakfast and Franx served up exactly what we were looking for. Good sized portions for a great price. We had excellent service as well. Highly recommend this spot!
Wonderful and friendly staff makes their delicious food even better. The full English breakfast is fantastic. Coffee's great too and you won't go wrong with the traditional tea with milk. Open early for breakfast which is nice when that jet lag hits. Repeat visitor on our trip and highly recommend Franx to anyone visiting Covent garden area for breakfast or lunch.
Very delicious english breakfast:)
Great Cafe and breakfast joint
Great traditional English breakfast at a good price. It appeared that this was a local hot spot while we were there.
