Mr Frankie

Mr Frankie is a modern brunch cafe on Norman Avenue in Frankston South, popular with locals and happy to have dogs at the outdoor tables. The pull is good coffee and a solid breakfast menu with an easy, community feel.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the footpath and outdoor seating, not inside the main dining room. You can usually settle at an outside table without going through the cafe. Staff are friendly to dogs and known to bring out a water bowl, but pack your own to be safe.

Good to know. Reviewers rate the coffee and the brunch, with corn fritters, chicken burgers, poached eggs and savoury crumpets among the regular picks. Hours skew to daytime and it is generally closed Mondays, with limited Sunday trade, so check before a special trip.

Getting there. On Norman Avenue in a local shopping strip, with street parking on Norman Avenue and around the nearby shops.

Nearby with the dogs. Sweetwater Creek Nature Reserve is close by for a walk on its on-leash trails, and the Frankston foreshore is a short drive down the hill for a longer leg-stretch by the water.
