Frere Jacques is in a good setting right by the river - atmosphere OK but furnishings look a bit tired (maybe shabby chic?). Food good but not exceptional, staff friendly and TT deal made it better. Would probably go again for casual not special night out. AP

From 'greet to seat' the service was friendly. Complimentary glass of champagne each as we couldn't use the Toptable deal being Sat. Food very good, escargots a little small but tasty, monkfish and pear tart lovely. Partner's prawns good but belly pork only OK, nice crispy crackling . Tarte tatin burnt, but exchanged promptly. Didn't skimp on the glass of Amaretto. Service excellent, a great buzzy not too noisy ambience. Will go again and try the menu rapide/fixe prix for value or Toptable deal!

Frere Jacques on a cool and wet April evening offered us a good brasserie experience. The fish cake starters were a little dry but had a nice sauce, and the steaks were tender, tasty and cooked exactly as we asked. The service was a little over-attentive. Before the restaurant filled up, we were approached and checked on by five different (but very friendly and obliging) staff members. The restaurant had a pleasant buzz when it filled up. Overall a decent meal at a fair price in a nice place.

My girlfriend and I eat at Frere Jacques on a Thursday night. The food was very nice with good service if a little too chatty. There was a good ambience but the awning on the front of the building needs a easier entrance.

I dined in Frere Jaques with my mother and husband last night and we really enjoyed the meal. As it was pouring with rain the restaurant was rather quiet. Usually we sit outside by the river, but this was not possible on this occasion. The food is well above average and the wine list is good. We go there quite regularly and I would definitely recommend it to anyone. It is one of the best restaurants in Kingston.

We had a terrific meal at Frere Jacques, on the Kingston riverside. Very good food, lovely view, and friendly service, we took advantage of the 20% of food offer which paid for our jug of Pimms! This restaurant is well worth visiting, especially on a sunny day.

The weather helped to make this a really good visit. The food was great and we chose from the 'Special' menu, which was good value (£55 for the two of us - three courses, 50 cl of wine, aperitifs and coffee). Apart from the food, the setting is perfect, especially on a warm evening. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommended

Review
Great restaurant in a superb location. The food was excellent and the service was excellent in a busy restaurant. I have been here 4 times and it is still very good I will say it is one of the best in Kingston. For those who want to go do book as it gets busy and can get a table opposite the thames.

Frere Jacques is in a great location. On a sunny evening in Kingston, its hard to beat the ambiance. Its fairly pricy, but the food is good, with a reasonable selection of wines.

Review
The setting of Frere Jacques was stunning overlooking the Thams and it felt like we were in the South of France! Value for money good food and we thoroughly enjoyed a leisurely Sunday lunch sitting outside in the sunshine. For anyone not local to Kingston I would recommend the shopping followed by lunch or dinner in Frere Jacques.
Eg. italian, Ritz, Benitos, meatballs...
