El Francès is the brainchild of Julien Andre (French) and his Ecuadorian wife, Cristina Carpio. Julien’s passion & study of gastronomy have allowed this cafeteria to flourish with some of the tastiest bakery treats you’ll find in Cuenca.
French gastronomy is recognized as one of the best in the world. And this cafeteria offers numerous French style pastries and other baked goods. With handmade products, freshly prepared every day, it’s the perfect combination of French culinary methods mixed with passion and love from the chef.
Julien likes to use natural products from Ecuador, including fruits, vegetables, coffee and chocolate in his breads and cakes. This allows this cafeteria to provide a unique offering with special and unique flavors for their customers to enjoy.
If you are in the mood for fresh croissants, a Selva Negra cake with chocolate, cream and cherries or the best macaroons in town, you really should head to El Frances, a little piece of Paris in Cuenca. The perfect place to relax for a few hours in a cozy atmosphere in the heart of the historic center.
