- CCraigSydney •2 reviews4.0Dined on 10 Oct 2026Francesca'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👍🙏😊!More infoFrancesca's Bar$$$$• Pizzeria• Northcote•4.8
