Coffee is wonderful. The atmosphere and layout of the place is fantastic. Very calming vibe. Great eat in and take out food options. Eager staff. Highly recommend.
Very good service and good food there, the staffs are very friendly and really knowledgable. Really recommend to come here for breakfast
BRILLIANT !!!
I ordered the Moroccan Cauliflower fritters which came with a gooey poached egg, sautéed kale and a delicious pumpkin hummus.
Perfectly balanced meal, which was nicely spiced, filling and beautifully presented.
This is not your average neighbourhood cafe - in fact it far exceeds many cafes on Chapel and High st.
Great location, delightful staff, delicious food! Portions were on the smaller side, but enough.
Cabinets inside were full of delicious looking takeaways and cakes. You can even buy the condiments homemade inside. Will go again!
Been back the third time now. We like this place at st Kilda. The omelette was full.of flavours and the fritter was great too. The coffee was above average. They also have a small selection of dry goods on display.
Situated in the backstreets of St Kilda, Frankies Top Shop is a favourite amongst the locals - and it's easy to see why. Offering both indoor and outdoor seating, this quaint, lush, and incredibly inviting cafe will immediately make you feel at home. Using seasonal produce wherever possible, Frankies' menu consists of breakfast, brunch and lunch items such as the potato roesti with smoked salmon, cucumber salad, horseradish creme fraiche and poached egg, and the Reuben sandwich on Elwood sourdough. It also offers a range of take home meals (lasagna, family pies, chicken meatballs), daily specials, and of course (as should any good local cafe should) sweet treats.
Fantastic coffee,food and service! Wonderful warm environment, lots of homemade goodies that are just delicious! The Persian love cake is AMAZING! Highly recommend, perfect brunch spot!
Difficult to fault, service was friendly, attentive and professional. Premises was clean and comfortable. Food was very good and service quick. Environmentally conscious cafe, low wastage per meal and low environmental impact choices made by management. Coffee was good, reasonably strong and slightly bitter the way I like it but could have been hotter. Overall recommended and would visit again.
This place is so lovely! Great service, beautiful food for both eat in and takeaway. It's delicious and modern without being pretentious. I had the French toast special with passionfruit curd and berries, it was beautiful and not too sweet. Will definitely be back for some of those salads at the front counter.
So in love with this gorgeous little café. Great selection of food and drink items and offers a cosy feel. It's a real asset to St. Kilda West, and will definitely be a regular client going forward.
Stumbled across this cute but well run cafe after an event along the foreshore. There were plenty of staff and so they were very efficient. The display cabinet is packed full of delicious salads as well as baked pastries and other goodies, plus there is a menu to order from! My salad bowl was a bit overpriced at $15, but both the beetroot & candied walnut and the red grain with sweet potato salad were packed full of flavour. My friends had fritters, potato rösti, coffees, smoothies and a chicken sandwich, and all reports were positive. Definitely left satisfied!
Great coffee, delicious food and service with a smile! I work around the corner so have had many coffees at Frankie's and they never disappoint! The brunch menu is drool-worthy. So happy this delightful cafe has opened up in the area :)
Cute dog-friendly cafe. Amazing coffee and smoothies. Food is good but not amazing. Service is timely and staff are friendly. I also really like the outdoor area ☺️
Stopped by briefly for a coffee and pastry. Staff were great, coffee was good. Will return.
Accessibility info: 3 steps to enter the building but there is seating outside on the sidewalk and on a patio and both are accessible by mobility challenged peeps.
Frankie's is a very dog friendly coffee place near St Kilda beach. They serve great coffee and their pie is delicious. I love the open space window at front.
A very tasty breakfast in a pleasant & welcoming cafe.
A gem for the locals im sure.
Great coffee! Delicious food as well. Friendly staff and quick service. Found this place by accident but definitely going to remember it now.
Frankies is a cafe that every local has visited and recommends.
Gorgeous cafe so many home made cakes, treats, salads and more. Staff are lovely and coffee is great.
If you haven’t visited yet, please do so and let me know what you think.
Great fit out and a perfect example of a fantastic neighbourhood cafe. Not cashing in on the proximity to the beach. Foods great and coffee too 😊
