hello

Frank's Bar from the frontWelcome to our shiny new home on t’interweb.

Frank’s Bar is a cafe-bar in central Norwich. We have filled our bar with good food, top drinks, marvellous music and general chilled-outness. We’re happy for you to enjoy Frank’s Bar in a range of different ways, whether it be with a coffee, glass of wine, tasty meal, or cheeky nibbles we’re really quite flexible. We like to make Sunday’s special as well by offering a fantastic Sunday Breakfast menu (served from 11.00 – 6.00) and a classic afternoon film (screened in the back room) along with the usual selection of great coffee, good papers to peruse and general loveliness.

Because we try to be down with the cyber-kids, we’ve also got a Facebook Group, Facebook Fan page, MySpace page and have gone twittertastic over here.

Iittala at Frank's Bar

We have teamed up with our lovely friends over at Iittala to fill Frank’s Bar with lovely things. Those clever Scandinavian design-type-folks have put together an amazing range of crockery and glassware for us to use.
The good news is that if you like the look of it and want to fill your place with Iittala loveliness, you can go a few doors down to The Granary a pick some up.
