Love East Frank. They make the best veggie burger in town and their steak fries are on point, never greasy. My husband who is a meat eater loves their burgers topped with their amazing chili. I just recently learned they offer a veggie chili which I am looking forward to trying on my next visit. Order in the back, the team is friendly and helpful if you don't know what to order. You can make a combo and add a fountain drink. They have a great selection of beer and always some cute kitsch vintage items to look at. Your food comes quickly, always hot, fresh and yummy. East Frank is always active in our community, helping the underserved with various community drives. Thank you East Frank!Give it a try, you wont be disappointed!

We went on a Saturday afternoon after Wingate University graduation. Happy to say our party of 12 had no problem finding seats. What an interesting place--you could play iSpy for days. The sandwiches and wraps are not only uniquely named but delicious ! They offer a great variety of bottled drinks, fountain, drinks, coffees, and a full bar. There is also a unique gift shop inside and outside seating when it's not freezing cold. Staff was super friendly. All are welcome here.

I've been a fan of this company for over 15 years. We began patronizing the Common Market in the Southend of Charlotte which had a wonderful shaded alley lined with chairs, plantings, and unique people. Sipping wine on a sunny afternoon and enjoying a sandwich was a simple pleasure that reminded us of Ronda, Mykonos, Rome or somewhere way cooler than anywhere called home.So, I was excited to learn that East Frank's is the same owner and has modeled this location after the others (NoDa, Oakwold, etc.). Same great food, quirky way to order (yet it works), vino, beer, hot sauces, and unique gifts with enough social spice to get the ladies from the prayer group all in a tizzy.Often, I will drop in on a lazy Sunday morning and order a breakfast sammie to go. I've tasted almost all of them and heartily recommend trying one, too. Grab a seat at the counter, order a cappuccino, and while the day away.As one of Monroe's unique go-to places for an experience outside the ordinary, my "Give 'em a whirl" meter is huffing and puffing, "Yes, yes, yes"! Go here.

I popped in for a quick lunch on a business trip to Monroe. Loved the welcoming exterior and fun, hip vibe from the minute you step into the door. For first timers like me, getting your bearings on how ordering and paying works is a bit of a challenge. Once inside, turn right to order. Then, take your ticket to the bar to pay. When your order is called, take your ticket back to where you ordered to pick up your food. There were all types of folks enjoying their lunch here. I loved the eclectic blend of people. They had a great menu. Sooooo many drink choices and a great bar. I was working, so I only had unsweetened tea. My wrap was great - but huge! I could only eat half. I liked the vegetarian and vegan options. I'd definitely come by again.

I love this place! I try to make a stop when I visit family in NC. Their staff are friendly, and the ambience is very perfect for what it is. :)The vegan food is very enjoyable, and their beer selection is AWESOME. They have several unique craft beers that I've enjoyed grabbing and sharing with family. My family members really enjoy the non-vegan options too.

East Frank is a funky little place. It's decorated with tons of vintage toys. The wafflewich is the perfect combination of sweet and salty. The downtown scandal sandwich is soo good, I get excited when its the special of the day. If you want to support a business in Monroe that's inclusive to everyone then this is your place to go. They are also the only thing place I know of that you can get a beer in the morning (night-shift people understand) with the caveat being Sundays because of NC laws.

My wife and my daughter took our Harley's out to find a unique different eatery. This was it from a beef burger to fantastic vegan burgers with great toppings and French fries. I am defiantly going to bring our Hogger's to this place. You will not be disappointed.

if you want to pay for over priced local craft beer and be judged for being on your phone while spending your money at a business establishment. then this is the place for you. i will not be back after this experience here.. pretty sad that humans can't keep their personal views separate from business.Also being disrespected, and having mean facial expressions from her, while spending ALOT of money over the last three years... unacceptable.I wish I would have asked a name while I checked out, but I'm a decent person, so I left. Done with this business permanently.
