Frenchie - Callejón de los Chivos

Awesome crepes, cool unique atmosphere and wonderful staff. Also in a really cool part of the old city. Definitely worth a visit.

This place is amazing! We had a spectacular ceviche and they served it with some really special smoked spices from Caquetà. Then we had the tastiest crepes we've ever had, with mushrooms and Gruyere cheese. The atmosphere was also superb, in the front of an old colonial house in the walled old city of Cartagena. We are definitely going back.

Great combination of Colombian ingredients with the more complex flavors of French cuisine. Awesome change of pace after a couple weeks of traditional Colombian food.

This was a spectacular find, as we were strolling down the street in search of a light yet satisfying lunch. There was a 18.000 lunch special featuring a fresh squeezed juice, salad, and a savory crepe. My friend and I weren't starving, so we opted to share the special with an added juice followed by a sweet crepe and coffees. It ended up being almost too much food, but everything was so delicious that we couldn't let any bites go to waste. The juice: There were about 6 options of fresh-squeezed juice, but we both opted for pineapple as it sounded perfectly thirst-quenching after a hot stroll. 5/5The salad: Simple, small and delicious. It came in a small bowl with fresh greens, grated juicy carrots and a couple of tomato slices. While very basic, it was still fresh and a nice size for the set lunch. 3/5The savory crepe: I cannot express with words the deliciousness of this savory crepe. It was the best crepe (sweet OR savory) I've ever eaten. The crepe was lightly browned and stuffed with a perfect serving of soft cheese, which was barely noticeable until we cut in. The crepe was topped by a light and flavorful cream sauce completed with sautéed mushrooms and plump nicely-cooked chicken. Simply magical. 5/5The sweet crepe: While this wasn't on the set lunch menu... What's a meal without dessert? We ordered a chocolate crepe that was anything but plain. Like the savory crepe, it was perfectly cooked and had a satisfying ratio of crepe to chocolate. Style points for featuring local, homemade chocolate. YUM. 5/5The coffee: Lovely taste, and it came out in the cutest china - including the cutest sugar bowl. The only downside was the small portion (could finish in 2 decent gulps), but it's comparable to other Colombian coffee spots. 4/5The ambiance: Coffee shop feel, and every course is served on quaint China. Great vibe, and great service. 5/5

As many South American backpackers will tell you, you will eventually have so many carbs that you actually CRAVE salad. Cartagena was the last stop on my holiday and Frenchie's was my last dinner. I could not have been any more pleased. I got a salad and a savory crepe (their specialty) and both were my favourite of each that I've had the entire trip. The salad would have been enough based on its portion size. It was delicious and loaded with fresh fruits and veggies, but I'm still glad that I got the crepe as it was absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly and did their best with the language barrier. The kitchen is open, the atmosphere is fantastic. Would recommend and go again and again.
