I remembered when Frank’s Bar opened way back. This brought something fresh and new to the range of cafes in Norwich. Having just set up Norwich Index around the same time it opened I vouched to write a review. However, life got in the way, and thus my review did not happen. Until… now that is.
Frank's Bar Norwich
Frank’s Bar needs very little introduction. A testament to it’s success is that fact that it’s still here today. For those that haven’t heard of it Frank’s Bar does things differently to most cafes. Frank’s Bar has a fun side to it, with quirky front-room decor and welcoming staff. To be served you’ll need a table, don’t let this put you off, as this means they can make the most of your custom.
Having popped in on a lunch break to satisfy my challenge, I enjoyed ciabatta filled with antipasti vegetables, Cannellini bean pate and rocket leaves all for a reasonable price – arriving promptly too 
The menu is wide and satisfies both vegetarians and meat eaters. Also if you get down there in the morning you can take advantage of their superb Breakfast Club Menu.
There’s a great range of drinks on offer here and any place that stocks Havana Club rum gets a +1 in my book. If you’re a fan of board games there’s a superb selection to keep you amused.
Being a music fan, Frank’s Bar does not disappoint. They play a great mix of tunes all cleverly updated to a Last.fm account. They’re open to suggestions and if you’re an iPhone owner you can vote for music too.
Another genius idea is their afternoon films which are shown in the back room. Keep an eye on the schedule for movie classics.
Frank’s Bar is a fun cafe bar, with good food, happy staff, top drinks, games, movies and cheer.
