Frank's Restaurant & Mussel Bar

Excellent first visit to Frank's mussel bar after being told about it by my colleague. Huge lover of seafood and never heard of Frank's before so thought I'd give it a try. Booked for their Thursday mussel night and wasn't expecting it be so busy. Mussels were some of the largest I've seen and very tasty, there was only 1 downside and that was service was slow but this was most likely due to the restaurant being full and not staggering their bookings as everyone seemed to order at once. We will definitely be back.

Married to a Mussel lover this fantastic restaurant offered not only 22 different types of mussel dishes but also a great starter and main course range and a dessert menu we were too full to test. We attended in a Wednesday lunch and hadn't booked but were treated pleasantly upon arrival. The building is beautifully kept and provides a great atmosphere for a meal and chat. We took a table next to the window so we could also people watch. The portions were very generous but quality also exceptional. I would definitely return many times and would highly recommend.

Had a very nice meal at the weekend. Very impressed with the quality of the food and there was plenty of it. Waitress was very efficient but after giving us the dessert menu she disappeared and didn't come back to take our order. As it was getting late and all other diners had left we decided not to bother with dessert. Will definitely visit again but perhaps book the early sitting. Those of us who had mussels all agreed how good they were.

First time at Franks, and won't be the last. Came here with friends for a double date, one of my friends had recommended it as they had been before. Everything was top notch, from food, to service, to atmosphere. Started with no.1 mussels. Cooked to perfection, with a sauce that was good enough to drink. For my main I had monkfish wrapped in bacon, I've only had monkfish a few times, but that was definitely the best experience I have had of it by far. It practically melted in my mouth. The gravy and veg accompanying it balanced it really well. For pudding I had the crêpe suzette flambé, which is a show as well as a treat as it's lit at the table with I think brandy. Very orangey flavour but not overpowering. Service was really great, managed to get the name of our server at the end of the meal. Have to thank Poppy for her service! Additionally, this is one of only a handful of places that serve fruit beers, so I was very impressed with that. The raspberry one is my personal favourite. For all of this the price is very good, a little more expensive than a chain, but well worth it.
