IN WHANGANUI SINCE AGES AGO

One family with a vision to bring excellent hospitality to Whanganui.

Lez started The Big Orange, one of Whanganui's original cafes. Since then, him and his wife Liana opened Mint Cafe in 2012, serving brunch, dinner and drinks with style, opposite Majestic Square.

In 2015, the old bank building on Victoria Avenue was available to rent, and thus FRANK. Bar was born, with premier dinner, drinks and cocktails served up until late. Though the Old Bank building served FRANK well, we have recently moved locations to The Old Post Office on Ridgway Street. We are still serving up delicious, seasonal fare and amazing cocktails - just from a brand new and gorgeously decorated address!

​

If you're in town, come in and experience the very best Whanganui has to offer. Mint as Frank!
