We're Rebecca & Clarisse, co-directors of Savoir French. We were both born and raised in France, and professionally trained in Australia. Between us, we have 29 years' experience in hospitality and a shared passion for the industry — we love sharing our culture and language through traditional food and personalised service.

No request is ever too big. We're dedicated to giving you the most authentic experience, so you can indulge in a piece of France in Canberra.

Our story

Good, simple and honest traditional French food, made in-house from scratch, using only high quality, fresh and raw ingredients.

What we make

Savoir French is a play on words. In French, the termsavoir-faire means "know-how" — reflecting our business: skilled workers with French know-how, making traditional bread, pastries, dishes and cakes. We're also committed to producing minimal waste, and give back to the community by donating leftover food.

Our team

The Savoir French team

Our team, without whom none of this would be possible, is also made up of superstar baker Gustavo, fabulous all-rounder Yorick, all-star Head Chef Cody, expert Pastry Chef Vu, and not-to-be-underestimated kitchen apprentice Jack.
