BIRTHDAY COMEDOWN

We’ve popped the balloons, taken down the streamers and just about recovered from our birthday the weekend before last.

Our final big thank you to everyone that came to celebrate, anyone that wrote us a lovely birthday message and of course the biggest thank you of all to our chic Frank’s team :)

Here’s to many more 🍻

TO BE A WOMAN IN B**R

Women In B**r® festival have been absolutely stellar and we’ve been very grateful to be a part of it!

The Frank’s girls got to learn brewing secrets from Sureshot Brewing, our GM had the brilliant opportunity to speak at the ‘Creating a Community’ panel and we hosted our first zine making, b**r tasting night raising money for women in b**r 🍻

But the fun isn’t over! We are also pouring WiB collab b**rs from Buxton Brewery and Elusive Brewing all weekend long!

Support local, support independents, support women in b**r 👯‍♀️

WHAT A YEAR PT.3

An obvious shoutout and one close to our drunken hearts. Craft b**r. Supporting independent breweries during a tough year for all of hospo.

Excited to continue pouring weird and wonderful b**rs with our fav breweries (we’ve had over 150 different crafts on the past year!)

Wish we could show off all the different b**rs but here’s a couple highlights and some Frank’s recommended breweries tagged. Special shoutout to Sureshot Brewing for helping us brew our first collab and making it a banger 🍻

Have a taster, have a third, push the boat out with a schooner or go wild with a pint!

WHAT A YEAR PT.2

Frank’s wouldn’t be what it is today without the community around us. We’ve been extremely lucky to have hosted all sorts of quirky and creative events which we’ve loved as much as you guys have loved coming by!

WHAT A YEAR PT.1

We can’t fit everything we want to say in just one post so please bear with us as we do some throwbacks, some shoutouts and some celebrations in the build up to our birthday 🎂

This time last year, Frank’s was still a building site. We had just finished our cocktail menu, didn’t even have the b**r lines installed yet and worked day and night to pull it altogether for the 17th.

And here we are a year later! 25,000 pints of super bock poured, 11,845 margs made, brand new toilets, an endless amount of lightbulbs replaced and a lovely customer base that has supported us throughout 🫶🏻

Raise a glass to Frank’s this weekend (and if your name is Frank, the pint is on us 🍻) - see you Saturday!
