About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
Take a stroll down Monmouth Street, London and you'll discover a little piece of England that will remain forever French. Mon Plaisir, London's oldest Family run French Restaurant, has been a purveyor of the finest French cuisine for over half a century. The entente cordial hits you as you enter, and the French atmosphere is as thick as the waiters French accents. You'll find yourself surround by wonderfully original French artefacts, you could find yourself leaning against the pewter topped bar which once graced the lounge of a Lyonnais brothel.

    The service was impeccable, offering to take our coats, telling us we were ordering too much food and offering to split dishes and just being overall friendly!

    We have been here on several occasions previously and it was always outstanding. Since it has changed ownership not the same, had to send back to kitchen both a starter and main as both were cold, very disappointing.

    We loved coming back to Mon Plaisir again this year already. Such a great traditional french atmosphere with people who have worked there for decades. Such a friendly, fun and welcoming place to eat and the food/drinks are as ever outstanding! Thank-you for looking after us and passing this down to another generation!
