A fast and friendly service...Supplying traditional full English breakfast and sandwiches with a real mug of tea or coffee.No frills ideal for those working in the area...Open really early too!

It’s exactly what you want from a builders cafe - tasty, hearty, generous and great value. I always visit when I’m in the area.

Cada vez que estoy en la zona, este lugar es una visita obligada. Este no es un restaurante elegante, es un buen café a la antigua. Varias otras críticas lo han calificado de "cuchara grasienta", lo cual es injusto. Mientras que la decoración es alrededor de 1960, todo está limpio. La comida se cocina fresca, el café fuerte. Un desayuno cocinado con tostadas y una bebida caliente por alrededor de cinco años. Pagarías casi eso solo por la bebida, en la mayoría de los lugares cercanos. Me alegra que un amigo lo haya recomendado. Un consejo que nunca me ha servido mal. Cuando se encuentre en un lugar nuevo, averigüe dónde comen los taxistas locales y repare sus vehículos. Adivina dónde comen los taxistas locales.

Traditional little cafe that serves great food at excellent prices. They offer an all day breakfast and have a good range of hot and cold sandwiches. The food is delicious, the service is friendly and it’s all great value. There’s limited indoor seating and a few tables on the pavement outside.

Very fortunate to stumble across this super friendly sandwich bar today with my father. It's just a two minute walk from Olympia so ideal if your attending an exhibition as we were. We both had the smoked salmon sandwich which was of excellent quality with the bread being nice and fresh. The tea (loose leaf) was superb! It is of no wonder that Frank's has been going for so long, third generation, I think - because it is a real little gem!

I always insist on going to Frank’s to get lunch when we are exhibiting at Olympia. It’s right on the doorstep of Olympia and the sandwiches are always so fresh and tasty. Plus I’d always rather give my trade to a local business rather than a supermarket or chain. Can’t recommend Frank’s highly enough.

It was so good to find this place by our hostel ! Staff are friendly, always nice. I am vegan and could have double beans on toasts (you can ask for marmite on the toasts instead of butter -love it!) and some tomato and cucumber slices. See you soon and cheers, mate !

On 24th March 2018, my wife, and I, went to the Ideal Home Show at Olympia, London. We arrived early and went in search of a hot drink. We headed to the main road, Hammersmith Road. Across the road, slightly to the left, we spotted Franks Sandwich Bar. It looked like the kind of place I like, I was right. It is a very nice place, well kept, clean, unpretentious, and very friendly. We each had a bacon roll, I had coffee, my wife had tea. Why I like this sort of place is that it is how cafes used to be, ask for a cup of coffee and that is what you get. No long list of questions about what sort of coffee. Just a good cup of coffee. Two bacon rolls, one tea, one coffee, total £8.00. Good value for a perfect breakfast in perfect surroundings. The father, and son, sorry I didn’t get your names, finish the experience off perfectly. Both men are friendly and happy to talk whilst preparing your order, which was completed quickly. There are other cafes nearby, but I haven’t tried them, so I can’t comment on how they compare. In my opinion we were lucky to have struck gold at the first attempt. If you are going to Olympia, for any reason, try this place. 1 minute from the exhibition halls, eat in or take away. An excellent place to get your food and drink, with great service. Highly recommended.

Trabajé en Olympia por un par de días y me detuve en el Hilton. Me negué a dar una palmadita en el desayuno a 15, por qué los francos están al otro lado de la carretera. he usado este lugar muchas veces y nunca te decepciona. cocinado para pedir un tocino y un sandwich de huevo tostado con una taza de té 4. Supera eso. Todo fresco y caliente con una lectura gratuita de un papel. servicio amistoso que no me gusta.

Located just outside the Olympia exhibition centre in West Kensington, London, Franks is one of those special places that you really should pay a visit as it evokes the British "greasy spoon" cafe culture that's sadly on the decline as we move to more "sophisticated" food.

If you have been to the Olympia conference centre, you will know the prices for drinks and soggy sandwiches are really high. Just across the road from the east corner of the centre is a little sandwich shop called Frank's. I walked past it and saw it full of people in the breakfast period, a mix of builders and business suits - always a good sign. I went in for lunch after seeing the queues in the conference centre, and the quality of the food people were buying and then complaining about. I ordered a bacon roll and a hot chocolate. I was handed the drink and waited whilst the bacon was cooked, fresh. The cook asked me for my sauce preference, before handing me a superb hot roll, just like the kind of bacon roll you hope for when you order one, but so rarely get. This place is cheap, it's clean and everyone is friendly, including all the customers as they are all enjoying great food. I ate there the next morning and lunchtime. This really is a great traditional friendly place, doing freshly cooked hot food all day and cold sandwiches and drinks too. Don't pay for fancy packaged junk, give this place a try and that conference will be all the better for it.

Eat in or take away it's perfect. Cold selecton of food also available and teh chicken tikka Sarnies are to die for. Frank is the best govnor and will continue to offer brilliant value and good quality cafe food till hell freezes over. If you are anywhere near you MUST go there to eat. I've used franks now for over ten years. Can't say anything more it's perfect

Fifty years ago there were loads of cafés like this, serving a mug of tea and a fried breakfast. What a pleasure to find one in this day and age, such a change from the faceless chains. Clean and fresh, with diner high stool tables.After the previous night of serious drinking following a trade convention at Olympia, my hotel booking was room-only (corporate spending cuts have been the norm since 2008!), so I decided not to pay for the Hilton Olympia hotel breakfast and wander across the road to this traditional 'greasy spoon caff' and had the perfect antidote, the mini-breakfast (fried egg, beans and sausages on two slice of toast) and a large orange juice. Perfect antidote for a fiver. A fiver! In Central London.No Wifi, no credit cards, just a short visit wallowing in 1960s nostalgia!Long may they continue!

I had a simple breakfast and coffee in this unpretentious 'greasy spoon' opposite Olympia. When visiting Olympia (I was there for the Great British Beer Festival) this place is ideal. If you want a proper full English or bacon sandwich this place is perfectif you don't want to usual trendy fare that London is full of i.e. expensive coffees and smoothies.

We stayed just a block up from Frank's so my husband would make the trek each morning to pick up breakfast. We tried several sandwiches over the days we stayed in the area. Each one was delicious & well prepared, we tried the egg/bacon, egg/sausage, chicken salad all were yum. The prices ranged from 2.60 to 3.50 GBP & coffee was only 1.25 GBP this was a steal compared to the full english breakfast at our hotel was 12 GBP each. We generally spent less than 10 GBP each day. If you are in the area stop in and give this place some business you won't be disappointed

I was working at Olympia and am not a big fan of the breakfasts in the hotel I was staying in so popped in here for a sausage baguette instead and it was very tasty. They also used proper HP brown sauce is always welcome because too many cafes use cheap alternatives. Worth knowing about as a good way to save money!

What a lovely little find. I was early for my event at London Olympia yesterday and walking on the opposite side of the road, the smell of bacon caught my attention. A friendly welcome, wonderful coffee & a yummy bacon sandwich all for £3.50!!!! Great place for locals and the cabbies who were truly very friendly... the cabbie driver I spoke to knows the owners grandfather and the place has been there since the 1950's apparently - will definately go there again on my next trip to London.

I heard about Frank's Sandwich Bar before this trip to London and it was near where I was going to be, so I decided to try it. It was really good! The first time I stopped in it was about 2:40pm, but they were already closing up, so I tried it the next day, and they sandwiches were really good. The bacon, cheese, and egg was the best! They close at 3:00pm, sometimes sooner so keep that in mind. I'd highly recommend it!

Stopped here the other day for a bacon sarnie for breakfast whilst en-route to Olympia. I had a warm baguette with 2 rashers in for £2.40 I think it was, and it was hot, freshly prepared and tasty. The grill order cook is permanently cooking eggs, bacon and sausages for the orders as the come down the line of builders, taxi drivers and locals, and there are tables and chairs at the end where you can eat. It's old and tatty but in a rustic charm kind of way, a place that time has forgotten maybe...
