I messed up and arrived more than 15 minutes late on a busy Saturday night. The restaurant was full but the young lady (from Colchester England) still found me a space. Great staff, great service from Stefano and a lovely evening.

Francesca's is a great little eatery if you are going to a show at the Northcote Theatre... its literally right next door! They have an arrangement with the neighbouring pizza joint (Pizza e Vino) who provides the very yummy food... the latter just need to make sure their printer is switched back on after cleaning (the owner of Francesca's realised their printer was turned off when our food was delayed and was quickly onto it... plus I got a free Scotch and dry for my troubles🙏)! Highly recommended for any night out in Northcote👍🙏😊!

Pizza is the best and value for money. I am picky with my pizza and you will not be disappointed. You will come back again and again! Service is excellent too.
