History

Established in 1991.

Michael "Frenchy" Preston was born in Quebec, Canada and then a few years out of high school in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Frenchy moved to Clearwater Beach and began to work in the local restaurant business. Frenchy worked hard learning every job as he progressed from dishwasher to restaurant manager. After eight years in the industry, he was ready to make his dream of owning a restaurant a reality. In 1981, Frenchy opened the Original Café on Baymont Street, with a mission to serve the freshest and best quality seafood possible on Clearwater Beach. Within a very short time, the Cafe became widely successful with lines of people stretching out the door on a daily basis. Staying true to his mission, Frenchy opened his own seafood company, ensuring a constant source of fresh seafood to the Café. Frenchy continued his success on Clearwater Beach with the opening of Frenchy's Saltwater Café in 1989, Frenchy's Rockaway Grill in 1991 and Frenchy's South Beach Cafe in 2003.
