Our story

A little bit of France, a block from the pier.

Frenchies Cafe brings crepes, French sandwiches, and a proper coffee program to San Clemente — served on a patio with palm trees and ocean views, named after the two French bulldogs who greet you at the door.

What we’re about

French bistro, beach town.

A Patio on the Pacific

Palm trees, sea air, and the San Clemente Pier a short walk away — our outdoor tables are the whole point.

Crepes, Made to Order

Sweet or savory, folded fresh when you order — not stacked and reheated behind the counter.

French Classics, Beach Casual

Jambon-beurre and prime rib sandwiches served the way a beach town actually eats — no pretense, no dress code.

Dog-Friendly, Always

We're named after our own French bulldogs. Yours are welcome on the patio too.

What guests say

Straight from Google.

I ordered the Frenchies sandwich and it was absolutely phenomenal. The service was excellent, and the patio seating made the whole experience even better with its gorgeous view of the ocean and palm trees.
