Provided is a vehicle body front structure in which the effect of a front side-member on collision performance can be prevented or controlled, and a connecting member, which connects the front side-member and a fender apron, can suppress vehicle body deformation caused by a minor wrap collision. The vehicle body front structure (10) is provided with: a front side-member (12) having a front flange (30) formed at the vehicle front end thereof; a crash box (14) that, via the rear flange (40) formed at the vehicle rear end thereof, connects to the front flange (30); and a connecting member (46) in which the vehicle rear end thereof connects to the fender apron (44), and a joining plate (52), which is formed at the vehicle front-end side thereof, joins together with the front flange (30) when sandwiched between the front flange (30) and the rear flange (40). Closer to the rear-end side thereof than the front-end side thereof, the connecting member (46) is inclined such that the front-end side of a section on the outside, in the vehicle width direction of the front side-member (12), separates outwardly, in the vehicle width direction, from the front side-member (12).
