What People Are Saying About Frances Restaurant & Deli

In Short – A giant hanging pickle welcomes customers to this spot on bustling Clark Street, where an all-ages crowd enjoys homey service, dependable food and easy-on-the-wallet prices. Breakfast gets busy, but the line moves fast. On offer: the Reuben omelette with corned beef or pastrami, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. Fried matzo is another winner, with thin matzo crackers dipped in egg and fried. Lunch and dinner options include salads, burgers and sandwiches.

TURKEY RUBEN!
by jlh67
What can you say....France's is a great sandwich shop especially the Turkey Ruben! This is the place to go when you are in need of a good sandwich. They use real fresh roasted turkey and it really makes a difference. Fortunately (or unfortunately for my hips) France's is in walking distance from our home. The only drawback is that the sandwiches are so good - and big that we never have enough room to try any desserts. The apple pie looks amazing though!
- Pros: Great Sandwiches, Comfort Foods
- Cons: Long Wait on Weekends

Love that Frances!
by kookie_kelly
Frances' has been around forever and while the current location lacks some of the charm of it's former digs (about a block away). the food remains it's #1 draw. Try going at an off-time (3 PM or so), as it tends to get busy at lunch and dinner. Their deli sandwiches are the best west of Big Apple...try the pastrami (hot, of course)! Make a pig of yourself with the pickle bowl and they will bring more with a smile!
- Pros: True Jewish Deli
- Cons: Hard to find parking
