About Angel's House

Tucked into an Essex Street cottage in Freo, Angel's House turns out honest French cooking without an ounce of pretense. Regulars point first-timers straight to the double-baked cheese soufflé—airy and rich—before moving to braised bœuf bourguignon. Out back, tables spread into a garden courtyard where silent French films flicker against the wall and French-speaking staff pour carafes of wine between courses. The kitchen skips modern theatrics, letting the meal wrap up over a crisp-topped crème brûlée.

  • Classic Bistro Fare: Rich bœuf bourguignon, double-baked cheese soufflé, and bubbling onion soup prepared with traditional French technique.
  • Cinematic Alfresco Dining: A breezy garden courtyard where silent French films project on the wall during evening dinner service.
  • Heritage Cottage Atmosphere: A historic cottage layout with separate dining rooms, a front verandah, and attentive French-speaking floor staff.

  • South-of-France Courtyard Ambiance

    Set behind the historic Essex Street cottage, the rear courtyard garden evokes the relaxed open-air charm of the South of France.

    The courtyard outside is a beautiful setting and really feels like you are in the South of France.

  • Alfresco French Cinema Screening

    Evenings in the alfresco dining space feature silent classic French cinema projected against the walls, creating a distinctive and immersive backdrop.

    There was a french film playing in the background (no sound) which was a nice touch.

    The pear crumble took us back to our summers in France. The sweet caramelised pear flavour, with rich butteriness, a hint of coconut and a final touch of savouring salt, divine!
