Frenchie

About Frenchie

Frenchie is a high-energy French bar and dining room located in a Collins Street laneway in Melbourne's CBD, opened in 2026 by hospitality professionals Julian Diprose and Lucas Boucly. The concept centres on a fixed-price $14 menu of shareable French classics — steak frites, duck à l'orange, tartare, oysters — alongside cocktails on tap, house-poured wines, and a roving dessert trolley. The venue draws on the atmosphere of Parisian late-night dining, with low lighting, a statement bar, and a soundtrack designed for a room that runs from lunch through to midnight.
