Bad Frankie in Fitzroy is a special place that honors the rebellious spirit of Governor John Franklin and the forbidden pot stills of Van Diemen’s Land in the 19th century. With a touch of local charm, this small bar gives a classic Melbourne feel while staying true to a modern mission.
Once you step inside, you’ll feel the warmth of timber walls, comfy seating, and tables lit by candles. The walls are decorated with a mix of old photos, and draped ropes add to the cozy and welcoming atmosphere.
However, Bad Frankie is not your ordinary neighborhood bar – it’s a celebration of Australia’s rich distilling scene and the humble jaffle.
The long 30-page drinks list only has boutique Australian spirits, wines, and beers, with just a little tequila from Tromba, an Aussie label making it in Mexico. The bar is proud of its cocktails made with Aussie mixers and garnished with local things like saltbush, pigface, and bush tomato.
Bad Frankie might seem like a gimmick, but one taste of their carefully made drinks will make you believe otherwise. Chat with the friendly and passionate bar staff, and you’ll see how committed the bar is to showcasing the best of Australia’s distilling.
The great thing about Bad Frankie is its simple mission. It looks like a regular local bar at first, but if you look closer, there are eight pages all about Australian gin and a variety of spirits, from whisky to absinthe.
Their all-jaffle menu is clever, with seven tempting options from classic to innovative, highlighting the jaffle as an Aussie invention, up there with the Hills Hoist and Wi-Fi.
At Bad Frankie, you’ll find a place where history and modern times come together, and every sip and bite share a story of Australia’s lively distilling past. Whether you love jaffles or know your spirits, this bar in Fitzroy welcomes you to enjoy the best Australian craftsmanship in a comfy and down-to-earth space.
