We love supporting other businesses and this one is a real treat! Hello !

Founded by the gorgeous Kelly Pearson, this business celebrates women in wine. We love that! She works with her ‘partners in wine’, other women winemakers and creates a range of stunning wines that speak of their place and to the passion and speciality of each winemaker.

Aside from supporting women in wine, giving back to the wine community & running an inclusive wine business - let us absolutely confirm, the Chardonnay we are currently showcasing at frankie. is insanely delicious!!

The 2022 Ladygarden Chardonnay is made from grapes grown on the Limestone Coast in SA. (Okay, so not local to Geelong we know, but Kelly & her company is… so we’re cool with that!) It’s a cool climate chardy with a fresh acidity and balanced with a touch of oak. *drool*

See ya soon at ._geelong 🍾🍷

frankie. IS ON THE MOVE!

Thats right, folks. Sometimes they say change is as good as a holiday and boy are we overdue one.

We have outgrown our current location and when an incredible opportunity presented itself to expand our premises, we jumped at it.

The NEW frankie. venue will be even more fresh, vibrant, fabulous, high-end, and STUNNING - and will allow us to offer YOU a much more premium experience in a larger space.

We have partnered with the legendary team at North Building Group who are well underway working their magic, building and fitting-out our restaurant and bar at its new location. It’s going to be nothing short of SPECTACULAR and these guys really know their stuff.

The new frankie. location spans across two levels (yep, TWO!) with a designated functions area upstairs and the beautiful restaurant and bar on the ground floor, with separate entrances for both. So don’t worry, Geelong, we will still be your go-to hot-spot for all occasions; hens, baby showers, engagements, weddings, birthdays, etc - as well as casual drinks and restaurant dining.

We’ve still got you covered across all bases and rest assured we will continue to offer the same Pan-Asian fusion sharing dishes and incredible cocktails you know and love at our new address - with the same award-winning team.

So, WHERE IS THE NEW LOCATION?!

It’s just an arms-length away. We will remain in central Geelong on Malop Street and will seamlessly relocate to the opposite side of the street to… *DRUM ROLL*… 26 Malop Street.

The fine print… we will temporarily close our current doors from the 16th October whilst the transition takes place before the grand re-opening at the new venue in late October.

Got a function or reservation with us from November onward? We’ll be in touch very soon, if we haven’t already been.

So exciting!!!!

WE CANNOT WAIT TO SHOW OFF OUR FANCY NEW VENUE TO YOU!

Big love.

Team frankie.
