À la Bonne Franquette

Tucked into New Farm’s Brunswick Street, À la Bonne Franquette redefines cozy bistronomie. A tiny, family-run dining room doubling as a gourmet deli. Snagging a table here requires serious foresight—Brisbane’s dining purists are quietly booking out the tight dinner services for a taste of unapologetic French soul food. Expect masterful, generous classics served with unparalleled warmth. The kitchen executes a flawless cuisson on their eye fillet, a dish discerning eaters readily compare to Michelin-tier plates. Garlic-drenched escargots arrive alongside blistered, impossibly fluffy baguettes. Creamy tartiflette. Zesty duck à l’orange. Pure, rustic comfort. Finish with a perfectly torched crème brûlée that balances the richness of the meal. Space is intensely limited—secure a reservation, grab some imported pantry staples on your way out, and settle in for an evening that feels entirely chez soi.
