Bad Frankie

Arrived solo and left having made friends with the wonderful staff. Great cocktails and jaffle. Can’t wait to ruck up to the bar and do it all again!!

Have you ever tried Australian Gin with native green ants??!!! 🤯 You must visit this bar! 😍🤪😁

This bar is a must go to in Melbourne. I’ve visited this place a few times and they always surprise me with their selection of local spirits.

It is such a good place to chill and enjoy the company of friends.

I love this bar 🥰

Visited in the early evening to try some gins! So not that many other people around.
Huge selection of gins. Lewis who was working was very knowledgeable about every one of them it seemed.
Also very tasty ‘meat pie’ jaffle!

Great Place for a drink. We had a few cocktails, a Jaffle and the gin tasting. Was an absolutely great way to start the night. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and really friendly. I highly recommend this place!

Excellent cocktails, and Tie is an amazing bartender. Didn’t get to try the jaffle cause we went after dinner. Will definitely come back!

Love the atmosphere, the experience and knowledge staff shared with me in relation to each of the ingredients. It felt like I was getting a tour of each of Australia's distilleries from Shim shortly after preparing one masterful cocktail after another. Thanks for being a terrific host and see you all soon!

Amazing place to have post dinner drinks, we went there after dinner on Thursday and tried a few spirits. They have a huge variety of Australian spirits, the bartender is keen to chat about it too and made me a special gin sour. The classic jaffle with chutney was delicious as well. Also that's the image of special absinthe shot the bartender made for us.

Mac & Kieran are the best bartenders to exist. Knowledgeable and friendly - all round legends.

We love having delicious toasties and cocktails on Thursday nights after our event. Ty is always so accommodating and provides the best service! It's the main reason we keep coming back. Highly recommend!

Lovely, cosy place with tasty jaffles and a well curated drinks list. The boilermakers for GBW '21 are wonderful.

Great cocktails. Interesting menu. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable.

All Australian spirits and boutique ingredients in an invitingly familiar bar. 480 spirits to choose from. Seats about 40-50 people. Great bar banter and no pretentious dismissive staff. Double thumbs up! And you have to try the beef bacon amd cheese toasties and the pork sausage with mash toastie. Devine....

Beautiful, refreshing cocktails featuring Australian native ingredients. Also had the shroom jaffle - a tasty snack.
Music not too loud so you can have a chat with mates on the comfy seats.

Mushriom and cheese toasties, red wine and brilliant staff. Heaven. Friends had lasagne jaffles... wow. Best place around for late night snacks and chats.

Amazing venue in the heart of Collingwood. Ty makes some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had and is pretty cute too! 9/10 dentists would recommend the Thirsty Little Piggy.

Love this place. Vegan jaffles are incredible. Cocktails rev my engine. And the service is always delightful. One bartender (I think his name is Ty) is an absolute dish 😍!

Really enjoyed the creative cocktail menu at Bad Frankie. The all Australian menu is unique, the staff all friendly and a nice location just off smith st too.

Didn’t get to try a jaffle, but will be back for one!

Excellent selection of local spirits, and whoever thought of pairing jaffles and liquor needs an award! The barman, Louis, was also awesome and makes a mean cocktail.

Such a great little spot! Amazing cocktails and with the 5 of us, we pretty much had a jaffle degustation! All delicious!

I love this little place. Their jaffles are the best and their alcohol range is great. They support local producers which is important. I thought about taking off a star for not having a permanent dessert jaffle on the menue but that would be spiteful 😅 Small venue and it gets pretty packed.
