Amazing homemade food! Had farm to travel vibes and the cutest location. Very small and cozy like a little hobbit hole.
Get there early! Tables are limited. And the wait is long but worth it.
They had great vegetarian options. The bread and jam is also fresh made
The food was absolutely delicious. We got potatoes, the Egyptian breakfast, the smoked salmon omelet, the tomato omelette, bread and jam, and the pastrami.
10/10 would recommend

Egyptian Breakfast Beans
What a cute place! I think it can only hold about 10 people, so it's cozy. The food and service were great. The Egyptian beans were well seasoned and the breakfast sandwich was served on a huge piece of bread.

Awesome spot! Me and my boyfriend come here at least once a month. The pastrami, the biscuits and gravy, the biscuits and jam, and the chocolate chips cookies are always a must have. It’s always such a blast, they play good jazz, with great furniture and a great vibe. Not to mention the woman who serves us is so consistently a delight. Absolutely love this place :) 10/10 for sure dude!

Buttermilk Biscuits with Chorizo Gravy Scrambled Eggs
The food was absolutely delicious! We really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere of the dining room. We ordered the Frenchies American and the Cubano sandwich special, and we loved both dishes. The homemade biscuits were also amazing!

I don't think there are earthly words to describe how much I love Frenchies. Ten out of five stars. I have been going here for a long time. We just got some land and what better to celebrate with than some of the best food in Traverse. Lovely service and incredible food. You cannot go wrong getting anything on the menu. The only trouble is that I can't eat everything on the menu in a single sitting.

French Onion Soup
Food was fantastic! Had the breakfast beans and husband had a pastrami sandwich on house-made bread. We took a chocolate chip cookie with us that was divine with some coffee. Eating area is very small. Don’t be afraid to go to the takeout window!
What a hidden gem! Frenchie's is a cozy spot that's seriously unique. It's different from everywhere else in the best way. The biscuits and raspberry jam are phenomenal, but all of the food is great! Even the coffee was better. It's nice to see a quiet spot with tons of character. Hard to find nowadays.

This may be the best scratch breakfast in Northern Michigan. The seating was outdoors only, 4 tables in the back patio/garden area. This was glorious on a sunny fall day, but may be problematic in inclement weather. However there was a cute to-go window for dining elsewhere.
While absolutely everything on this menu looked and sounded delicious, they make their own pastrami. If you follow my reviews at all you know I am a pastrami/corned beef connoisseur. So as scrumptious as the monte cristo, chorizo sausage and gravy and french toast all sounded, the pastrami hash on the special board was screaming my name. Alas it did not disappoint, tender pulled pastrami, grilled seasoned russet potatoes, a piped red pepper sauce and 2 eggs over easy combined to make a savory world class hash.
The sourdough toast with the freshest raspberry jam was the coup de gras of this breakfast. Absolutely delightful! The french press coffee with real cream was a perfect pick-me-up. And my friend seemed to revel in his fresh crepes places in a pool of amber Michigan made maple syrup.
This is one of those meals that will stick with me for a while. Service and ambiance were too notch as well. Ever since Golden Harvest closed in Lansing's Old Town neighborhood last year, I've been craving my scratch hash fix. Now I just need an excuse to drive 2.5hrs back up to TC to visit again. Highly recommend! Bring a few quarters for the parking meter too.

Went here during my birthday up-north trip and it was one of the best breakfast spots I have been to in the state. Food was made fresh, with fresh ingredients, latte was phenomenal, every food items was fantastic. Be prepared to wait but it is worth it. The atmosphere makes it 100 times better. A bit pricey but worth every penny. Will be back if in TC area again!
